Good utensil for grating nutmeg etc (and not your fingers!)

I love nutmeg and it seems the proper thing to do to buy whole nutmeg, rather than ready-grated. But then you have to buy one of those mini-graters which is fine when you’re starting on a new nutmeg but when you’re down to half and a quarter, there’s the ever present rush of grading your fingertips - ouch!So this is the answer. It’s very neat and compact and looks quite classy - I chose the all black model but the black and chrome would look good too.You slide the central cylinder out and drop the nutmeg (or whatever) in then slide the cylinder back in. The outer cylinder had the grated as is bottom surface so your nutmeg is reading directly on the greater. You press down on the top cylinder and turn it and it presses the nutmeg against the grater and the grounds fall out the bottom. It doesn’t take a lot of elbow grease to do it.The top cylinder has a cap you can take off which reveals a little chamber insure that will take a couple of whole nutmegs for storage, so you have them there ready. Neat and simple and effective.Only possible improvement might be a little plastic cap for the base to stop and remaining ground falling out when I’d in the cupboard or placed on your worktop but that’s not the end of the world.

Very good for nutmeg, cinnamon or similar

I bought one of these and was so impressed I later bought one for my Dad as a present. It is easy to use, simple and really works. You just pop in the nutmeg and turn the top and out comes a lovely fine powder, freshly ground, without much force required at all. You can force it to grind more awkward things like cinnamon or pepper or cloves and it will work, but nutmeg is the best!

Easy to use.

Bought this as both my wife and myself have arthritis in our hands. We used to have a very nice wooden nutmeg mill which was a joy to use until neither of us could hold the spring back to allow the nutmeg to be loaded. We decided to go for this as we have other micro plane products. It arrived the next day and we used it to grate the nutmeg for our Christmas mincemeat. What a pleasure. It works like a pepper mill and we can both use it without problems. Another point in its favour is that it will grind the whole nutmeg with minimal waste. Seems sturdy, doesn’t take up too much room and looks good. No hesitation in recommending this product.

fresh is better

The simplicity of the grinder is what made is stand out for me. less bits and pieces is less to break and less to clean. It is very small as the name implies so you need to break up cinnamon sticks to grind them (only used on cinnamon so far). This in itself is not too much of a hassle. You can keep a few bits in the storage lid for the next time too which is handy. The two gripes I have with this are a) size, and b) output. For the size it is just a little too short small for my hands (9cm/3.5inches across the palm) which means I can't comfortably hold it in both hands when grinding. If you imagine holding it in two fists side by side to grind it, I can only really use 3 fingers on the grinding hand which make is a bit awkward. For the output, it would have been very useful to have a capture device for the ground results. I was able to source a small round plastic container at the back of the cupboard which now sits with it. This enables me to grind into the container to then see if I have the requisite 1tsp or 2tsp etc. If I am adding straight to dish then this is not an issue, as only 'some' is needed :o)The grinding of cinnamon sticks themselves is very effective. The powder is coarser than you get in the spice jars but it is not grainy. The small is intense when freshly ground.The last few slivers of bark won't grind easily as the two halves to the unit meet when applying the last bit of pressure. not to worry, add a bit more cinnamon on the top and away you go again. Those last bits will be the first its ground!I recommend this product to anyone wanting fresh ground cinnamon. It doesn't require too much pressure to use, but the angular edges of the grinding half would make it uncomfortable for lengthy use. Design improvement ideas: make it slightly taller, dome off the top for ergonomics, include an output container, perhaps with small teaspoon measurement scale.I recommend this to anyone

Brilliant compact efficient spice grinder

I was looking for something compact and thoughtfully designed to grind whole star anise. I’ve used electric grinders for coffee beans in the past but wanted something smaller that didn’t need electricity to work. After one false purchase, I came across this. It is superb. One whole star anise took seconds to turn into the powder you see in the photo. The unit has a lovely tactile rubberised surface which I don’t think the listing describes very well. It has a small compartment in the lid to store whole spice, and a thoughtful runner bung to cover the blades in storage and stop residual grinds littering your kitchen. Really great.

Misleading item description, no customer support.

I love this product but they seem to now be shopping them without the silicone base cover despite this being included in the item description. I contacted Amazon support, which directed me to an out of use URL for microplane support, and then contacted microplane directly through their contact page on their website and received no reply. So in all it would be a 5 star product if not for the misleading description and non existent customer support. A shame as I love microplane products.
