I bought this coffee grinder in order to grind linseeds a psyllium husk for bread making. I know this isn’t what it is designed for but my breadmaking course and other resources I have looked at suggest using a cheap manual coffee grinder to do the job.

This isn’t the cheapest out there, but less than half the price of my Timemore Chestnut grinder which I use for coffee.

The adjustment of the grind is done by just guessing and turning a nut, so initially I found that there was a big difference to the Timemore which has a incremented clicking adjustment so I can easily and accurately adjust it back from one grade of grind to another.
Anyway, after 1 1/2 hours (I was desperate for my bread!!) I was about 3/4 of the way through the 40g of linseed!

I very reluctantly got out the trusty Timemore and ground the last bit in under 2 mins!

Now I have accepted that by using my Timemore grinder my coffee might have some linseeds in and my bread some coffee, but I can’t really afford the time to use the Hario Skerton- it will be going to the charity shop.

I didn’t expect that eco packaging! Everything was cover in paper, zero plastic and quality of the products is just incredible! Highly recommend! ❤️

Great just what we wanted, good quality product, quick service

Well-made and grinds well. I like that it comes with a lid for the base so you can store the ground coffee in. The adjustment is a bit of a fiddle to get right as you have to unscrew the handle each time, so not so good if you use different brewing methods. Otherwise very good.
