Is there a grinder that can REALLY grind through bones? Any suggestions?

I'd say many or most grinders can grind chicken & rabbit bones with meat. I do so for making cat food. This one should do. I've talked to people that say they grind chicken bones very well even tho the instructions advise against it. Turkey bones is harder to do, and forget beef bones unless you have a big expensive unit.

It comes with a 7mm, which is the largest, and a 4.5mm for sausage grind. I run whole turkeys through mine, bones and all. If you plan on doing bones, you will need to get a spare 7mm. I put 13 turkeys down it on the same grinder plate, and it's still sharp. But I also bought a spare, because I was told meats like venison (no bones) wear out a plate pretty fast..................Terry...

Get a coffee bean grinder for that. I got a cheap little white one from Amazon here: Proctor Silex E160BY Fresh Grind Coffee Grinder, White . Works beautifully. It will grind your spices into a powder if you leave it on for too long! Just be sure you use it for spices or dry herbs. Fresh herbs are too wet, and will clump up.

That is the best grinder ever. I use that everyday for tile work since 4 years. Never break but a little more expensive.

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'm no expert, but I'm guessing if you've tried a stone already this one won't do it for you. Check out a local fab shop and have them use a grinder on your ax. You can get a nice edge if you know what you're doing with a grinder.

It grinds anything you want to, the only problem is that it shaves off pieces of metal everytime i try to grind from seeds to corn. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND IT AT ALL. DO NOT BUY IT, IS NOT WORTH IT...I still have mine, i also called and email the website from were i bought this grinder to see if i can return it but they never answered me back.

i have found this to grind anything larger i tried cardamon and they either fell through or went up the shaft of the handle.its hollow. its perfect for nutmeg.

Wow you know I have never heard of anyone wanting to grind nuts with a meat grinder, I would think you may try a couple of peace's of wax paper and a rolling pin. As for ease of cleaning, Yes it is. Try a Ninja machine.

That is the best option I've found. Depending on what you are grinding it may be possible to scoop the results out with a flexible spoon or spatula. But I worry about how much I'll leave behind, so I will typically just pick it up and scrape out the contents.

I'd cook those bones for a couple of hours and then I test them, by trying to cut them (and I mean the heavy long bones) with kitchen shears. If shears will cut them, I would NOT be nervous about asking this grinder to do it. You're going to be standing there, anyhow, turn it OFF if you start to feel nervous about it.

Would you let me know if you found a grinder that can conch chocolate? I used to do it in a 500 lb grinder but I need a little one now for my home

Not really, like most blade grinders it depends on how long you run it. If consistency is important, I would recommend a burr grinder.

i have no clue. im sure there is a way to get parts for them, but there out in china. if there is a will, then im sure there is a way. im not too worried about it though honestly. for the price, it works well, and its way under priced for the ratings at which it grinds. sorry, not a great answer for you, but i only bought it for the dogs, and it grinds the bones and all. it does the job i ask of it.

If you're grinding as a substitute for clipping, I would absolutely recommend something stronger. If you're just rounding the edges after clipping, this works alright, so long as your batteries are fully charged.

You could try. The grounds really get stuck in there. Mine died after a couple of years, but while it worked, it was a great grinder.
