Can I adjust how finely it grinds the nuts? I want a very coarse chop size.

The one I received would not go together correctly so I was unable to use it. I was given a full refund of the purchase price though.

I have never gotten mine put together. The hopper doesn't fit on the base. I WISH I hadn't bought it

Yes, the grinding surfaces have an adjusting screw that allows for a very course to a fairly fine grind.

I only use mine for French press grinding ( big chunks) but the grinder is easily adjustable by using the nut/screw underneath the handle. Mine grinds very consistently; I don't see why it wouldn't do a fine grind.

I bought this unit from Amazon 2 years ago and my wife and I love it. That being said, I seriously doubt that it will do a good job of grinding nuts (or coffee for that matter) into a fine powder. We do get good results with chopping, however, but haven't actually tried it with nuts. I believe that another reviewer warned NOT to chop ice with it.

Gary, to adjust the grind, there is a large slotted screw head in the bottom of the mill (accessed from underneath ) that adjusts the grind. It works well. I have had this mill for well over a year (and ground a lot of pepper). The grind size remains very consistent for a given settng.

If you want a coarse chop, this won't work. However, it does make very quick work of fruits and berries if you want to purée them. It is a powerful machine with a good-sized capacity.

You cannot adjust the grind size but the size it comes out is pretty much the same as any pepper grinder. So far these grinders are my husband's closest friends.

Absolutely... You can set the grind fairly coarse and works great when grinding for a French press. Also makes te grinding process much quicker.

Seems to me it grinds only, but it adjusts to fine or coarse. Maybe the fine setting is the "crush"?but it works great.

I have found that by either loosening or tightening the screw on the top you can adjust the grind coarseness

Yes. Tightening the nut that holds on the lid pulls the grinding disc up higher, giving a finer grind. Loosening the nut gives a coarser grind. This is from FAQ on the manufacturer's web site, where they call it the finial nut. Works on mine.

Yes you can adjust the grind on it by turning the "wheel" at the center of each end. Very easy. Love this item!!

I use this grinder for espresso drinks and have never tried grinding much more coarsely. I would recommend contacting the manufacturer. They have great customer service and can advise you fairly quickly after sending them a message.

If you are asking is it possible to adjust the handwheel then I must think you are wanting to know is it possible to adjust the grind size. If that is what you are asking then the answer is yes. In fact i own several small manual grinders and this one is by far the best for getting the grind size you want and the machine will keep it's setting. The others I use have to be continually readjusted. That is such a hassel when you just want to make a cup of coffee first thing in the morning.

yes, you can choose from a very fine to a coarse setting. it is an excellent mill.

Yes , you can. But make sure that the corn (or any other grain) you put for grinding should be very dry. You have to adjust the knob on mill for desired coarseness. I once made very coarse flour out of wheat berries for making sweet pudding.

Yep :) No problem! The V-shaped blade (I can't recall it's proper name at the moment) is the one I use to chop nuts with, though I think its also possible with the flat blade ...

Definitely not. Even the finest grinding mode produces a pretty coarse powder. Very Disappointing!
