We have a mortar and pestle but would like to invest in an electric grinder too as my partner makes a lot of curries. Is the burr or blade grinder best to get? Thanks :)

I use a good old breville coffee grinder specifically for my linseeds, almonds and sunflower seeds.

I used to until I left the lid to close to the element! Now I use the good old mortar & pestle.

I do find the almonds are always the hardest to grind properly, but it does not bother me too much. I love my LSA sprinkled over crispy apple and drizzled with Waihi Bush organic flaxseed oil.

For grinding spices specially Kenwood coffee grinder is the best. This has narrow mouth which grinds the ingredients very finely. Tried russel hobb but no good use. I still use mine for 14 yrs now no complaints and gifted the other ones to my friends all are crap.

I also use my coffee grinder to mix spices, but never use it for grinding coffee.
