how fine does it grind?

The perfect amount in my opinion. I would say somewhere between medium and super fine. It comes out about the consistency of loose tobacco if you were to unroll a cigarette. Slightly thicker.

Yes. More so than any other grinder I've used in the past. The grinder performs well and this is not a big issue but you will most likely be cleaning up grinds that cling to the unit after you use it.

I am using mine for salt and pepper but you have to make sure that it is a fine grind, not coarse.

Sorry this is late, maybe this can still be helpful to you. I find that I wobble along with the grinder in a complimentary movement way. I don't set it down on a surface to grind. I hold it in the air and let one arm grind and the other hand holds it, sometimes going in the opposite direction to be more efficient. I still use it everyday since I got it 2 months ago. No problems yet.Hopefully never!

Have not used it to grind grain, sorry. But it has done well with all I have used it for.

The lid on the grinding chamber is clear. The machine's motor is electric but it is activated by a manual switch that the user must press to activate the grinding process. This means that you can press the grinding button for one second or for a year depending on the desired coarseness of the grind. You can easily determine your own desired level of grind or "medium-ness." Grind a little, check it. Grind a little more, check it. Cheers -

This has been a problem reported by other reviewers and I also have had the problem when I over tightened something inside while cleaning. I had the grinder fixed. Since then, the grind has been very even. You can read the comments section of my review to learn the whole story.

I've had it for 6 years, use it to grind a pound or two a month. No issues. Still works great.

no, but for me that was not a problem. i prefer to use one that is much more stout than ones that come with grinders.

It grinds fairly fine. But too small for much volumne. I would think something else would do better

It grinds the amount you want. I would NOT recommend buying this grinder. Mine lasted 9 months.....

I would say having used other grinders that it's not exceptionally easy but average. There is some twisting involved. Hope that helps. It works well.

If you want a coarse grind, this grinder can do it. You can recalibrate it to grind coarser than it does out of the box, but that is very easy to do and is documented in the manual. I suggest that you turn the knob to #1 and try it. If it is not coarse enough for you, use a 5/32" allen wrench to remove the screw from the knob, and turn the white adjuster to the left a little (two clicks), then replace the knob. Grind consistency is excellent with this grinder. To counter claims that the grinder spills grounds: I use a small rubber mallet to tap the grinder body and I don't have any problem. (Put a piece of tape on the grinder body to protect it from marring.) Almost any coffee grinder will be messy--even commercial ones. When cleaning the grinder, check that the two allen screws in the back of the grind adjuster are screwed firmly into the threaded holes. Tighten them with the 5/32" allen wrench. Mine had worked out (it caused no damage), but they haven't loosened since I tightened them.

It can grind it to that texture. I don't think it can get as fine as flour though.

Don't know exactly how fine of grind you need, but it is adjustable and can take the bean down to almost a powder.

Nothing slows down this grinder (keep your fingers out of it :-)) It is easy to clean. I recommend using the head with bigger holes.

I really don't know, I have only used it to cook on. It's easy to find either fine or coarse grind, though.
