| Apr 18, 2024 at 14:39 | comment | added | Sam7919 | @Ecnerwal That's a good point. I'm not thumbing my nose at age-old techs. I simply don't want to use them purely out of nostalgia if a modern solution will do a better job with less pain. I asked a separate question (cooking.stackexchange.com/q/128119/85398) if you'd care to clarify. | |

I guess if you're all "21st century" you should find electrified ones made with plastic that will break in 5-10 years (or 3 days after the warranty if they are programmed carefully) rather than prior century hand-powered ones that will live longer than you will. | |

At the moment I'm using the blade grinder that came with my nutri-bullet and it gives excellent results. | |
