Not a clue. I use a mortar and pestle or a dirt cheap old coffee grinder. I haven't read this thru, but Kenji generally knows what he's talking about.
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Okesmokie, I use a coffee grinder I bought about 10 or 12 years ago. At that time consumers reports tested every spice grinder on the market and found the particular coffee grinder that I bought was better than any spice grinder. You just can't use it for both. I have a burr grinder for coffee and a standard grinder for spices.Dearborn MI

Carolina Q, your posted article matched what Cook's Illustrated thought. I bought my Krups years ago and its still running strong. A tip for cleaning it: throw in a tablespoon or so of dry rice, and run it a bit, that's all I do.I use a marble mortar and pestle for small amounts, but this Krups is my go-to for any larger amounts (I don't drink coffee so I don't use it for that)._____________

I LOVE the Cuisinart grinder with a large container. It grinds to a fine powder in seconds.Judy in San Diego

I use magic bullet and works rather well. And makes a mean frozen daiquiri or frozen margarita. B-) For dry spices I hit it for a second and pulse two or three times and its perfect. It also works the same with fresh herbs and spices. I use it to help make homemade rubs. And would do beautifully for coffee rub.

My best is a really old Krups coffee grinder. Bought a new one but the old one is better.

$10 Mr Coffe broke, after 15 years, what a POS. Bought another, they are almost $20 now - it better last more than 15 years (even if I don't).Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

I have used 2 of these Krups in the last 25 years and just recently my friend bought a Cuisinart on sale in Wally World for around $10 as the other is getting old but still ticking.
