can it grind nutmeg?

I am not sure about nutmeg but I used it for grinding cinnamon sticks and it made a fine powder out of it

It does not do a very good job of grinding large, hard spices such as nutmeg. You would need to break up the nut somewhat to get a fine grind of nutmeg. Nothing works as well as a microplane for nutmeg.

No doubt in my mind that it would grind nuts and seeds. The only difficulty that would arise is cleaning if you go from seeds back to coffee.

Opinion is it would be difficult given the lack of leverage on the short lid-handle and short grinder-handle. It would depend too on the hardness of the nuts. We gave ours away because it did not work well on hard or medium hard cheese. Good luck!

I've not tried to grind grain with mine, but it is very powerful, so I imagine it could. I regularly make smoothies with lots of frozen fruit and it pulverizes them in no time at all.

I don't think grinding would be appropriate....unless you are making nut butter.....Mine seems quiet compared to the whine of my Hamilton Beach...which I also loved.

If you broke them up into smaller pieces it might. I don't think it will grind them as fine as you'd want. It's not going to be powder.

Not sure since it's not something I've tried. Don't know why not - you can get the grind as fine as you want - it's a SUPER grinder!

I believe the hand blender would work very well for mayonnaise, but I doubt it could grind nuts. Might have to find another kitchen gadget to do that.

I use it for Marijuana. It works great for that. For nuts I would just get a blender. This grinder is made to grind marijuana and collect the "keef" (the thc residue) in a delegate chamber. So I would not buy this if I wanted to grind nuts into flour

This isn't what you'd use for nuts - this would turn them into mush.This grinder is for meat.

I would not use this grinder to make nut butters. (I make my own nut butters all of the time, in my 14 c. Cuisinart Food processor, which does an amazing job. In my experience, you need at least a 7 cup food proc. to make any nut butter). This little grinder is not meant for the motor to be running for as long as it takes to make nut butter.

probably not; it wouldn't fit anything larger than a soybean or corn kernel. Unless you chop the cinnamon or nutmeg seeds into small uniform pieces, they wouldn't fit between the plates. The mill can however grind anything of that hardness.

It will grind coarse if you don't grind too long.. Not sure why the other reviewer said no. It even says so in the instructions.

I use mine to grind almonds and get almond milk as well as grind peanuts to make peanut butter. I should think it could grind rice too.

Yes, but to be honest a good blender or sm food precessor is better, or large depending on how many nuts you'll be grinding at a time!

I don't drink coffee so I don't know about that. But it will grind nuts. Read the review on CNET.http://reviews.cnet.com/blenders-juicers/ninja-ultima-blender-bl810/4505-17881_7-35828619-2.html

No, it isn't able to grind, really. It can chop things very small, but really not like almond flour. I get mine from Trader Joe's!
