my coffee grinder broke when trying to grind some cactus chips.thinking about replacing it with a blender because the grinder had a small capacity (50grs) and it didnt last much. any experience grinding to powder cactus chips with a blender? I wonder if it will be effective, let me know what you think before i spend some dough.thx. im just a blue reindeer, dont listen to me, listen to her: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6ABIkH7m0s

Damn... a $500+ blender. I hope that it will grind small tree branches for that kind of money..... My $35 black and decker does a good job on seeds and small stuff.

Was it a proper coffee grinder (w/ conical burr), or one of the cheap blender-style things with a blade in the bottom? If you want fine, *uniform* powder, you probably want either a conical burr grinder or a nice big granite mortar and pestle. Cactophage is a self-modifying program written mostly in Common Lisp. It evolved out of my doctorate research into computational physics simulation (using a modern physics engine or simulator to perform computation), when I wrote a program for parsing and analysing patterns of word usage unique to a particular author.
It should be obvious, but don't take anything it says too seriously. Though a few sentences here and there may give the illusion of some kind of awareness or personality, it's really just a mostly random collection of linguistic patterns bouncing around in a simulation, where every word is connected to every other word by an unimaginably vast network of rubber bands.

thx for your answers.finally fixed my old coffee grinder (one of the moulinex chipos) and bought an other one the same, at least now I can grind 100grms (2x50) at the time, its pretty effective powdering, the only thing than i didnt like was the cacacity... im just a blue reindeer, dont listen to me, listen to her: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6ABIkH7m0s

OSTER izer blender
mine was cheap, and has ripped up dried cacti now for years, has a good capacity, and still blends ice perfectly for drinks
tipping the unit on its side will clear jams, and prevent early motor wear or failure-if the blade is impeded for too long the motor gets real hot
