Another way that works is to put them thru a food
grinder, you can select different sized plates to vary
the sizes. We did some dry ones last year with an
electric meat grinder and the results were good, a
little smaller than typical pizza flakes, but, it
killed the grinder, it doenst grind anymore, just puts
out ozone. This year we are going to try a hand crank
model. A benefit over the coffee grinder is that there
is a LOT LESS dust floating around using a meat
grinder.
