Can this grind granulated sugar down to powdered sugar?

I would not grind sugar in the KOMO. It is meant for grains. I saw on another web site that they used a hand held coffee mill to make powered sugar from granulated sugar.

I would not use the grain mill for that. You can use a blender or small coffee grinder though.

Have not tried it but I seriously doubt it. With any humidity--the sugar would stick it shut! It's made for grains--& I like the fact that it doesn't powder the grain to a fine cake flour. I mostly make Whole Wheat breads-artisan style, heavy & chewy!

I use mine for powdered sugar and we have to shake it a few times to get enough sugar on our French toast. Maybe it would work for your powdery salt.

No, the mesh is EXTREMELY fine, so it's good only for flour and powdered sugar, for example.

I really do not know if it will or not. The screen would be too small for granulated sugar to go through. I bought the bigger one that you can use for flour for the sugar canister. They do make a much smaller version of this, that you could put spices in, and I use that one for cinnamon sugar mix. I do have the one for brown sugar and it works great !!! I love all the canisters and containers in this line !

Yes, it would work for granulated sugar, but its small compared to the brown sugar container (which does NOT have the shaker option)

It can grind it to that texture. I don't think it can get as fine as flour though.

It is adjustable but may not grind anything to powder. Mostly medium to coarse grind. You must use heavy duty batteries such as Duracell for it to work.

I don't think it has the capabilities to grind things into powders. I am almost 100% certain it cannot. I primarily use it for my dogs food and it can barely grind chicken bones which it is supposed to be able to do.

It is the texture of regular sugar, not powdered. I don't know if they make a powdered. The rare times I need powdered I just put it in my blender. Poof powdered!

I haven't tried to powder sugar so I can't directly answer that however, I made a standing rib roast over Thanksgiving, and made a dry rub for it from coarse sea salt, garlic and onion powder, cracked pepper and celery seed. I processed it in the food processor attachment. Much of the salt was reduced, but a fair portion was not. Same for the celery seed. I was hoping to reduce it a bit more, but after a few minutes, it was pretty clear it was as fine as it was going to get.

In my experience...the answer would be NO...I tried to set this grinder to grind fine; if it's possible I sure couldn't figure out how to set this grinder on anything that would change it to grind salt crystals smaller at all..

This is GREAT for powdered sugar. In fact it works better for powdered sugar than for popcorn salt.

Yes. You can use as little as you want and just adjust the amount of sugar you add to the liquid accordingly.

No. No coffee or spice grinder is designed to do that. Use a food processor, blender or immersion blender.

No, once you grind your herbs the pieces fall through holes under the blades. I actually have a mechanical grinder that I use to grind my stuff to a powder. the golden gate grinder always grinds it up enough to be perfect if I dare say so.

Not with this model. However, the new model you will be able to add ingredients while grinding. http://www.amazon.com/Elgi-Ultra-Perfect-2-0-Liter-110-volt/dp/B00HJLN1MM/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1399570327&sr=8-12&keywords=ultra+2+liter

Yes... There is a dial at the bottom of each side that can be turned to either grind finer or more coarse.
