Chinese Herb Grinder Recommendations?

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

 

Just wanted to get your recommendations on a reliable Chinese herb grinder. We

are looking to replace the one in our pharmacy, as it is too small and has

broken down on a few occasions. I've heard good things about Vita Mix and Blend

Tec, but am open to other options as well. Your feedback would be greatly

appreciated. My thanks in advance.

I don't know where you are but Kamwo in NYC has a good grinder. Regina

Feeling the pinch at the grocery store? Make dinner for $10 or less.

Hi Mr.Elias

 

Vita Mix looks too fragile to me. I have it, but never tried to grind herbs in

it. Instructions say " Chinese herbs will cause the blades to wear down " . I've

seen a heavy duty machine they used at my school. Even that one was getting

tired:)

I have a good herb grinder that I got from Tom at Kamwo in NYC. It has Rong

Tsong on the side of it, otherwise everything is in Chinese. If you have a

busy clinic it may not be for you as there is no safety on it so it can run

without the top on and it could easily take off a finger. It is just me here

and I know I don't put my fingers near it with the plug in. You may want to

check with Tom in any case as they have a very thorough operation and may be

familiar with other models. Regina
