Would this be good as a baby food grinder?

I bought this as a baby food grinder, and it didn't puree smooth enough for my picky baby. I returned it.

We mostly got ours for grinding berries for jam , but I see no reason it would not do the same. for baby food. Has 3 different blades and is very sturdy.Lucky baby!!

I didn't like mine, I try to make applesauce and that was a bust. I don't think it would work. I alway used a blender to make mine baby food.

Yes, It comes with three interchangeable plates from course to med to fine grind. Remember that for every couple of clockwise grindings, you also must go counter-clockwise to ensure complete usage of the veggies or fruits you are putting thru.

This will puree foods very finely. It has three levels of mesh. When I make potatoes with it they are very smooth. It will also leave any peel in the container, it won't go through the mesh. Hope that helps!

This would be great as a baby food grinder. It has three different discs so you can grind at different levels. I would recommend this product and once you use it, I'm sure you will agree.

I think it might be ok. I used it to grind cardamom seeds and it was great. The grind wheel is adjustable so you should be ok. I don't think it would work for coffee beans or anything of that size

No, I have only used it for coffee. I think that grinding moist substances, like ginger and garlic, would not work well unless it was fully loaded. I wouldn't do this with my mine.

I absolutely do NOT recommend this grinder for making cat food. See my review for more on this. In the comments, I include a link to the grinder I finally settled on and am loving!

i don't think you'd want to. and you certainly don't need to. it is flaky, not like little pebbles that you would grind. we use it by gently crushing it with our fingertips while sprinkling or in our palms, for salads, soups and on top of chocolate chip cookies. it is very light and delicate.

I use mine for only nuts. It will grind them to any degree of fineness you prefer, including to paste (almost butter) texture. Works best if you don't fill it too full. It's a dandy little appliance and well worth the price.

I would not suggest using it as a grinder for a "chunck" but if you are able to break it up into small bits then it works great.

it would but at such small quantities it would not be practical this grinder is for herbs and spices. there are better larger grinders out there for grinding grains

Yes, it's simple and easy! And works great for veggies , I grind veggies and make sauces with it all the time. Good luck .

It would be a little small for that. You'd be much better off using a grinder of some sort for a lawn mower blade.

You can probably use for baby food, but they are fairly small, also you don't want to overfill. I filled mine too much at first and the expanding liquid (when it froze), popped/cracked the tops of a couple.

No,the grind is so fine, it requires oil to process through grinder. A food processor would give you a dry grind

Sandra yes it can. I use for grinding mixed nuts that I keep in the firdge and add a tablespoon to my breakfast shake each morning. It is one of the best units I have found so far. Blades are very sharpe and the white blade unit pulls up and out for cleaning. It is not quite as fine as a hand grinder but I love it and use each week. M

It works okay for grinding meat in small amounts. I actually bought this as a portable option for an older adult with swallowing issues. It works well on most foods but only has the capacity for small amounts of food at one time.

It should do fine grinding grains/seeds that aren't wet or oily. I use mine to grind millet and it works fine.

Yes. We use it for grinding coffee, cardamom, clove and other crunchy spices. Almonds should be no problem. It has two different grinding cups with different blades for different grinding jobs.

Absolutely it can be used for baby food. It's one of my favorite kitchen tools. It has different sizes and the smallest pulls every seed and peel out of every thing. I love this tool. Very smooth.
