I use a coffee grinder or pepper mill to make my powders every year, but I am
looking to make something like the red chile flakes you find on the table in a
pizza joint. I've found that mechanized processes (e.g., coffee grinder or
food processor) don't do a very good job of creating uniform large (say,
1/8-inch) flakes.
I like the Ziplock bag and roller pin idea....just might work....
