That I am not sure of. I know it would dry out, but this is a question you should probably ask the seller. I have mine stored in a mason jar with a tight lid. And what I put in my grinder, I spread out on a cookie sheet for about 24 hours to remove the moisture before I put it in the grinder.

There really is no foam other than adhesive to the thick magnet. As for the spice jar, it should hold just fine unless it is a &gt;2 lb jar!

I don't know what size the jars are in the picture but the interior of the spice wrack itself is 3" so it will take a large size jar.

They are a little larger than the 8oz (1 cup) ball jelly jars. I do use them for spices as I usually buy in bulk.

Yes it will grind spices. The manual lists these spices in its guidelines: Peppercorns, Cinnamon Sticks, Whole Cloves, Coriander Seeds, Flax Seed. It does not say anything about those being the 'only' kinds of spices to use, so, I think that any kind of spices that are similar in structure to those (or coffee beans) should be fine. As for amounts, it lists "up to 4 tablespoons"; that will give you an idea of the capacity for each grinding.

I use mine for makeup etc. but spices come in all different sized jars. I would use the rack measurement and the average jar measurement and guesstimate. :-)

I would say the image is pretty accurate but depends on what size spice jars you are storing. I used this for about 6 months and then replaced this unit as the plastic arms that hold the spice jars stretch out and your spice jars wind up falling out. Seems like a good idea until you put it to use.

The inside of the bowl might show some very shallow circular lines from the manufacturing process, however they polish out fairly quickly with use. Before I bought it, one of the reviewers mentioned using a bit of sandpaper to smooth it out.It will grind anything, I love it. My sister has one too, and uses it to grind all manner of spices.

I would not recommend this grinder for spices. I tried grinding spices and the second time I used it it stopped working completely and I sent it back for a refund.

I haven't used it for anything except pepper. But, this seems to be a fairly good quality grinder and the size of the grind can be adjusted which might be useful for different types of spices.

Only deep enough for the average sized spice jar. My problem with it was with the rows loaded, the bottles covered the rows behind so it was still a pain finding what you are looking for.

From what I can tell, yes. There is a dome like piece that joins the blade with the bowl. This piece could very well be a hard plastic; it's not soft. I'm not clear why the question though. I've ground many spices without even a scratch on the smooth glossy piece. Everything seems to stay brand new looking. I use an OXO Bottle Brush to very easily clean the bowl leaving no residue trace behind. I very much recommend this grinder - but I only need it for grinding spices, which it consistently and very effectively accomplishes.

I have only used it for salt and pepper, but can't see why you can't used other spices. The grinding heads are ceramic and adjustable to grind size. I don't know how much it holds, at a guess around 3 to 4 tablespoons.

Cant really tell you exact amount of how many spice jars it can hold since I purchased the item as a gift to hold nail polish bottles. If you are looking to hold a lot more than 15 comfortably you would probably want to look at another item. Sorry I wasnt much help.

The jars are have approximately 3" tall by 1 1/2" diameter of space inside jar. Can't give you an ounce estimate since spices are each different.
