I was prescribed Mr cofee by another friend and am going to get one soon. Seems cheap too.
For idly dosa batters, does anyoen use hamilton beach. It s 750 W powered and I havent tried making idli dosa batters on it yet. I made fluffy vadas, but there is a rumour that making batters in such mixies might spoil the blades.
Any comments on this ?

Love,
Vidya

Hi everyone,

i am new to United states, Wanted to buy a blender or a mixie for grinding purpose. i have been searching thru net and was totally confused with so many options. Can anybody help me out with ur exp.i got lot of threads related mixie section but still am not clear with the best product for me. My questions are:-

1. My basic purpose is for wet grinding since my kid likes to have dosas and idlli. So would a indian brand or an blenders avble here in US would be useful.

2. Inidan brands which are avble in US are very Expensive($ 175- 200$), so it worth investing so much on it, but if i opt for a blender from US, i would have to buy a sept grinder for dry grinding.

3. If i go with american blenders , there so many options , so which one would be app for me keeping in mind i would be using it for tough grinding.

4. i saw online blenders with voltage of more 600 watts, is that useful for tough grinding.

ur suggestions will be of great help to me.

Thanks in advance.

cheers

Dear Vaidehi
I just saw your post and am going to reply though I dont think i'm the best person for this..
I have an Ultra Wet Grinder for making idli dosa
I use a regular blender bought from Walmart for 25 or dollars
Have served me very well. have even made dosa idli in it. No problem
just my opinion..goodluck

Dear chitra,

Hi Nikhath,

You can go for "preethi" up to me that is the best one. I am using the same mixe for the past 18 years. I bought one for Saudi also.

"Preethi ki nan garanti"

anyone has used nikai ( the metal mixer ) not the glass one. can u grind chutneys nicely in that
