Nothing here yet. Looking forward to hearing some ideas!

Hmmm...I feel a Google search coming on!
 
Ok here's a lazy question.... can you adjust the grind on them? I'm sure it's listed in the PIG(products information guide), but I don't feel like looking for it.
 
it depends on how "tight" the screw on top of the grinder is as to how fine/coarse the grind is!
 
Hi there! As a fellow pampered chef consultant, I can definitely attest to the versatility of our Grinders. I have personally used them for things like grinding fresh herbs, spices, and even nuts. They are also great for making homemade seasoning blends and rubs for meats. And let's not forget about using them for grinding up dried fruits for baking or making homemade trail mix. The possibilities are endless with our Grinders! Have you tried any other unique uses for them? I would love to hear your suggestions. Happy grinding!
