He&#39;s gone a little further with the grinding set-up, using a modified Stir Crazy. Here are some pictures:<br />http://www.flickr.com/photos/bestfx/sets/1071789/<br />He invites you to talk with him at coffee@bestfx.net.<br />Stephanie (&amp; Larry)<br />in Columbia, Missouri, USAStephaniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14713385338452018232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32933752.post-81018617533597257882009-07-10T16:40:51.191+10:002009-07-10T16:40:51.191+10:00Hi guys,<br />Thanks!<br /><br />@ Gavin - Yes I am growing coffee, although my bushes are very small. No time like the present to learn to roast before they get bigger though!<br /><br />@ CT - thanks! I saw on like that on eBay, it was very beautiful - but very expensive for that reason LOL.<br /><br />Cheers, JulieJuliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05380570737780717931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32933752.post-64372001848093136982009-07-10T08:35:46.032+10:002009-07-10T08:35:46.032+10:00Hi Julie,<br />Nice one!

Perhaps you could find one in a Middle Eastern store? Mine is shaped more like a slightly oversized pepper mill, but here&#39;s the general idea:<br /><br />http://www.turkish-coffee.org/turkish_coffee_grinder.htm<br /><br />I&#39;m not a coffee drinker, so mine has only been used for spice and salt grinding.CTnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32933752.post-87682640030174936292009-07-09T21:16:01.819+10:002009-07-09T21:16:01.819+10:00Hey Julie.
