“ I just ground up a bunch of black tea to see if I could make a strong concentrate, and to see if I could drink the whole leaf like you do with matcha! Ya know, just for fun....so I actually make the tea in a coffee maker and got a beautiful dark brew that I used for some cups of tea and loved it! I could see that working in tea lattes, cakes, soups, boiling eggs, or any recipe where you can use a bit of tea for an extra health boost. IN particular though, I did it so I could make tea lattes when I get tired of coffee, which has been known to happen! The only caviat, is that it takes a pretty long time to grind, and don't expect the fine powder that a matcha offers. having said that, I haven't tried my gyokuro leaves yet. When I do I'll let you know. ”

“ This grinder won't create as fine a grind as a traditional matcha, but it really does the trick for grinding tea for use in baking projects. ”

“ Had to play around with it and modify it but finally got it together and working properly after my initial bad experience. Once working it is a great little grinder. Grinds things to a fine fine powder. Awesome. ”

“ I was not a fan of this product. I tried to grind down my earl grey green and was not successful. After two rounds of grinding, there were still full pieces of tea left. The idea is fabulous, the execution not so much... ”

“ The grinder works really well - I found that putting the tea through twice gave a bit finer grind (though one is still drinking tea leaves and they do 'grow' in the water so it's not entirely unnoticeable). The real reason I purchased this was to grind spices and it does THAT job perfectly! ”

“ Really, really not working for me. Joint Pain and the inability –which most likely is my fault – to adjust the grind intensity makes it a dust collector in my shelf.
But I do give it four points because the glass container makes it easy to store the spice or seasoning after grinding and its easy to clean. ”
