I see there are #22,#12, and #8 grinders. What's the difference in these?

They indicate the diameter of the grinder plates and the width of the knives. 8 is 2 1/2", 12 is 2 3/4" and 22 is 3 1/4".

I believe that has to do with the horse power of the motor. The #8 is 1/2 hp, #12 is 3/4 hp and #22 is 1 hp. I would get the largest motor you can afford - it really makes a difference. This is a nice home grinder, in fact I used mine to make sausages for Christmas gifts this year. My only complaint is that two of the grinding plates did not fit properly and need to be ground down.

1/2, 3/4 and 1 horsepower motors, I own the #8 and it will do an amazing job, rated around 750 lbs per hour! I'm glad I paid the extra money for a product that will last a lifetime.

The #32 & #22 models are commercial grade and feature reverse function. They can handle 18 pounds per minute.

The numbers refer to the size of the grinder plates (the diameter of the plate, not the individual hole size). The bigger the number, the larger the tubes which generally means more grinding capacity and more horse power.

Horse power of the motor which ##22 is more horse power than 8. And also the size of the throat the meat goes in. 22 is larger than 8

I really don't know. I thought the #4 was what I used. :) Don't have the coffee pot any longer.

Hello Simon,The mills consist of a high grade acrylic tube that is covered with a stainless steel casing. In our opinion there are two benefits of this:* Stainless steel is more susceptible to rust and is harder to clean, so it is better to have the internal tube to be made of acrylic for hygienic purposes. * Stainless steel is much heavier than acrylic, so having the top portion me made of all stainless steel would make these grinders more top heavy and therefore less stable.We hope this fully answers your question.Best Regards,Eparé

Not sure actually. I can tell you that this particular grinder is high quality. Heavy metal, solid construction and works as promised. Good luck!!

I find that for the Ecobrew it works best set to 5-7 (with 1 being the finest setting). My grinder is 8+ years old though, so it may grind a bit differently than a new one. For other brands of reusable cups I find a little coarser works better, more like 6-8.

Yes. Maybe closer to 6. But if you have the strength and patience for it, the grind is uniform and precise-perfect for any brew depending on the calibration.

no, but for me that was not a problem. i prefer to use one that is much more stout than ones that come with grinders.

Dude it's the best grinder on the market hands down. Don't question it. Just buy one and you'll see for yourself.

There are 3 sizes. Large,medium and small. I have used all 3. I made tomato paste and the small is a fine grind. I liked it.

Not sure of the specific grinder but we use it daily with a variety of machines. Good product, have used most of the competition, though we still deal with a lot of dust. Have not found the perfect solution.

I may have just answered this, but I've only bought the $25 grinders. Maybe the $28 one has a larger area for the salt or pepper. Its a great product

The circle under the grinder cover has numbers. As you turn the wheel the number changes.

You have to by 5/8 arbor grinder wheels. 7/8 grinder wheels are for grinders with 7/8 arbors

The Delica 4 is available in both grinds so obviously one is incorrect (I think the description is incorrect)... since amazon e-mailed me to respond to this question, I assume the item is the same as the one I ordered some months ago... My knife is the FFG variety. If you want the FFG, order the item with confidence - Amazon has the best customer service on the planet... If the knife is not what you expected, they will make it right and they'll do it fast... If that is not an adequate solution for you, call or e-mail the seller and ask for clarification.- Michael -

As best I can tell from the website, it is the Model number for that grinder. Here is an example; Zassenhaus Beech Wood Coffee Knee Mill Model 156BU. They have been making these since the 1800's. So I would assume that this number is important for repair parts.

60 and 120...........I returned the one I purchased because I was not able to true up each of the grinding wheels. The bearings were also extremely loud which leads me top believe they would not last very long. I have purchased 2 Rikon 80-805 Slow Speed Grinders and have not had any issues for over 2 years.
