I'm investing in a blender for powdering mimosa hostilis, Which one out of these 2 do you think is best??? The first is a Philips which is obviously the better make out of the 2. also its 600w compared to the cookworks 500w. the only thing that concerns me is the cookworks has a glass jug instead of plastic, also the philips is reduced from £40 so its obviously a more expencive blender it also has better reviews! I'm stuck to decide but i'm swaying towards the philips as i think build quality will be alot better also im not sure glass or plastic will make much diffrence? Any help appreciated. Thank You  Number one http://www.argos.co.uk/s...dpFullProductInformationNumber two http://www.argos.co.uk/s...searchtext%3EBLENDER.htm"And then came me the destructive teen with a handfull of bars and a mind full of dreams"

Thanks for reply, that's just out of my price range unfortunately! it looks good though, my mate had a cheap spice grinder that wasn't effective at all but i think he got a budget one. I think on the blender side of things the 600w would be best as its more powerfull, hopefully someone who's actually used a similar blender can put some input in before i head to the shop tomorrow  "And then came me the destructive teen with a handfull of bars and a mind full of dreams"

Me thinks coffee grinder is better than blender . The bark is very tough stuff to deal with. Don't spend too much , even a decent coffee grinder will burn out on this bark after a while .

Not so powerful or large (think it holds something like 25g) but I’ve been using this for a couple of years, has stood up well to the abuse. http://www.amazon.co.uk/...ce-Grinder/dp/B001I9YZ44

d*i*b how much can you grind at a time and does it create a fine powder? so you would reccomend this over a blender? as the reviews on amazon are not very good? Thanks for your input! "And then came me the destructive teen with a handfull of bars and a mind full of dreams"

Yesterday I used a Philips at a friend's house and it worked wonderfully! EDIT: Im not sure what model it was though. Listen to a man of experience: thou wilt learn more in the woods than in books. Trees and stones will teach thee more than thou canst acquire from the mouth of a master. St. Bernard

Thanks for your input! I saw some of the reviews there weren’t so good but I have been using mine for over two years and it is still alive, despite abusing it with rue, mimosa and cebil. If I remember right it holds around 25g at a time, I just 3/4 fill it, whatever that ends up being in weight.
