Hmmm...
Kris,
I originally had mesh in mind. I'm not sure what the hole size of the mesh needs to be. Do you know?
You've given me a couple of alternatives to look at, here. A blade grinder and a burr grinder. Didn't think of replacing the grinder.
I'm gonna do a little research on those.
Thanks,
Russ

I've been using a blade grinder (Cuisinart brand -- with a removable
steel bowl so flavors don't stick around easily and it's easily
washable) and it's worked for all the small-job dried stuff I've thrown
at it. To echo others, there is some variation but it's "close enough"
for me. I wonder if a burr grinder could work well for this purpose?
If you just want to make sure you get out big pieces/seeds, a mesh sieve
would work.
