would it grind course enough to make cream of wheat?

Not certain about cream of wheat, but it will do cornmeal if that helps. I have an old hand mill that I use for coarse stuff.

It would grind much finer for sure, but since I do not eat wheat (we eat Gluten Free) I do not know for sure. I could go test it to see if it would make rice into granules (which I believe it would), to make cream of rice, only it started smoking yesterday, and shaving off plastic from some part inside and spitting the plastic shavings into the already ground flour. So now I am afraid to turn it on, and will be purchasing a new mill, but a different brand, for reasons already stated.

We have not tried it, but according to the book you can adjust the feed rate to get coarse/meal, so it should work.

It would probably not grind fennel, poppy or sesame seeds. It does a great job on fresh herbs.

You can set the grinder to grind pretty course but there are mixed reviews about the quality of the grind on course setting. It would work but may have a grind that is not as uniformed as other grinders.

The cream is more like heavy whipping cream so it would depend on the recipe but I do use it a lot. Just keep in mind it has more fat and almost no water.

As others have said here, for coffee, you can get a course grind by not grinding so long. I use mine for spices and want a very fine grind.

Not sure since it's not something I've tried. Don't know why not - you can get the grind as fine as you want - it's a SUPER grinder!

I have not tried whipping cream with it, however, i would assume that with its high speed potential it could whip cream given the correct temp. etc.

Yes you can. You may need to try different plates in the front until you get the right consistency you want. I can tell you that it won't slow you down as it will grind about anything. Very powerful.

Try cracking the whole nutmegs with a hammer first or a nutcracker if the type you have will work. The pieces should grind OK. I have a tiny grater that I use only for whole nutmegs. It makes a fine powder. I wouldn't use a grinder unless you need more than say a tablespoon.

This grinder produces a coarse grind as is shown in the product photo of ground nutmeg. If you truly need a "dust-like" consistency, such as that of store-bought ground oregano, then I don't think this product will meet your needs.

We use ours with a frech press and only grind for 6 seconds. It isn't completely unifrorm, but it works for an inexpensive grinder.

H. Curtis, I regret to say that I returned my machine. It was not a good pasta making experience. But, yes, one could make whole wheat pasta.

I have not tried it, but I would think the way it is built that you should be able to accomplish that. This grinder has several grind settings and does a great job. I am very pleased with it since I purchased it.

although I haven't tried it yet, I did do a lot of reading before I purchased it. It should grind nuts, grains, and dried beans. We purchased it for emergency use. I own an electric wheat grinder.

It will but depends what you are grinding, I used to make lentils and the lentil's skin would not go through. If you put steamed pears, apples, bananas then it does go all the way up

I'm not sure. Looking back, I actually spent $20.00 and it burned up almost immediately. I think it wouldn't grind over 1/2-3/4 cup at a time.

I'm not sure, but I don't see why not. It'll grind beans and corn. What you need to avoid is stuff that's wet and/or oily.
