This message is from: "Gail Russell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For those of you who are grinding flax seed for horses (or for yourself), Cuisinart has brought out a large capacity (looks like about a cup, though I have not tried putting a cup of seed in it yet, so not sure it can actually grind that much) coffee grinder.
The particular beauty of this grinder is that the cup can be pulled off and emptied, and washed (including the blades). If you are grinding the flax seed for yourself, you can pull the cup off, put on a plastic lid, and put the whole thing in the refrigerator. It allows grinding enough seed for several days. The pull-off cup also means flax seed does not gum up the safety mechanism in the lid.....which stops the thing from grinding until you have cleaned it. Not a cheap grinder, but it makes a BIG difference in ease of use over my old smaller grinder that you have to turn upside down to empty, and then scrape the ground seed out of the blades with your fingers.
