Coffee/spice Grinders

Does anyone use a coffee/spice grinder? I want to grind my own flax seed. I bought a Black & Decker grinder and after reading the instruction booklet, it said not to grind anything moist or gummy such as sesame seeds. Since I want to grind flax seed (which are similar to sesame seeds) I will need to return the Black & Decker. Any ideas what brand and model of grinder I should buy?

Thanks,

loregon

I have used my B&D to grind flax seed a handful of times with no problem but I do not have any long term info yet. Since it was a gift, I sure hope is holds up. There won't be any buying a new one for me.

Loregon,

I just bought a grinder/mill from walton feeds that looks really great. I is supposedly the best countertop grinder in the world. ;) It has a Lifetime warranty. It is a little pricey, but if it works like they say I will be more than happy. They offer a wide range of grinders and Flourmills. The link is www.waltonfeed.com. Check them out, maybe you can find one that will work for you.

I bought a GE One-Touch Coffee Grinder from Wal Mart for $13.00, and it works great on my flax. It is easy to clean, and has several coarseness selections.

I burned out a few coffee mills, finally settled on a KitchenAid because it has large capacity, detachable cup for easy cleanup (dishwashable grinding cup). They all seem to get hot after more than a minute or two of grinding.

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      Violent reaction to gluten after going gluten-free?

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
