Hi,

 

I am new and at the moment dont want to invest in a ball mill.

 

I have downloaded the turbo pyro beginner book for initial projects. Which coffee bean grinder shall i take?

Is this ok? Any other good company grinders?

 

Regards

oops. Sorry.

 

A coffee grinder has the motor and the blades all as one unit. Fine powders can migrate through the blade bearings and eventually ignite in the motors. Also, you can never get them really clean.

 

The units that have the motor separate from the blades, and have multiple jars, make it possible to minimize cross-contamination.

Thanks Kevin,

 

You gave a nice and logical explanation.

You know, there's this fancy little thing under everyone's name that has a field for location.

I am on the mobile version on my iPhone, and the location information is not available. I'll have a look on the website later.

@Ollie1016: there is a button on the bottom of the page that changes the theme from mobile to the full version. I didn't notice at first either, but there is a lot missing from the mobile version. Edited by BurritoBandito
