A person who has committed himself to cropping metals will not be able to fully finish what is required of him without the existence of one important machine: the bench grinder.

The bench grinder is a machine that is commonly used to grind cutting tools. Depending on the bench grinder's grinding wheel, it may be used to sharpen other objects such as lathe or drill bits. It may also serve as a good alternative to shape metals before fitting or welding.

Not everyone can simply jump on the bench grinder and use it as simply as they could think. For starters, you need to equip yourself with precautionary necessities to protect yourself from the metal debris that might ricochet from the metal you are shaping or sharpening. Wear safety gloves to protect your hands while handling metals. A leather apron to protect your body and a full face mask or shield to protect your entire face from debris is also recommended. Before starting, make sure that all of the things or materials you will need are close to you to avoid unnecessary interruption, such as the water pan which you will need for cooling the metal you are shaping.

Once you secured yourself, now it's time to check the grinder. Make sure that the wheel is properly placed and attached on the grinder. If your bench grinder is designed to have a water pan underneath, fill it with water up to at least half of the container. Upon turning the grinder on, allow the wheel to spin at full speed first before you start.

And now, you may begin shaping your metal with the use of your bench grinder. Hold your metal against the wheel of your bench grinder. Hold your material tightly and carefully against the wheel, because if it is not secured, there's a chance that the grinder might throw off the metal you're holding. Slowly, let it slide on the wheel and grind it into how you want it to be. Avoid applying too much pressure on your metal. Do not press it against the grinder, instead, just let it slide smoothly. Applying pressure on the wheel may result to dulling of the metal. Apart from the premature result of the product, pressure may also damage the wheel of your grinder. Keep on dipping the metal for about thirty to forty five seconds on your base of water, to keep it warm enough for you to handle.

As compared to other grinding tools available everywhere, the bench grinder is a machine that could be placed conveniently on bench tops. There are bigger designs of bench grinders which are called pedestal grinders, in which you may manually manipulate the wheel's speed through the pedestal attached to it.

How to Make Restaurant Quality Coffee At Home

First of all, restaurants are in the business of pampering you so they devote much more time to the perfection of a good cup of coffee. Sometimes I'll remember a restaurant just because of their excellent coffee.

So what are their secrets and how can you duplicate this recipe at home? It may surprise you to find out that the French Press brewing method could be the secret in achieving that restaurant quality taste.

Most fine restaurants use a press pot, also known as the French Press, which produces an extremely rich cup of coffee.

Press pot coffee is coffee steeped for 3-4 minutes between 195 to 205 degrees F. It produces a thicker and much richer taste than an auto-drip machine can produce.

A disadvantage of the French Press is it may leave trace amounts of coffee sediment. But the rich taste more than makes up for the small amount of sediment at the bottom of your cup.

So first, start off with a quality medium roast coffee, which is what most restaurants use. I can give you a couple of good recommendations.

Seattle's Best Breakfast Blend, Starbucks Breakfast Blend or Starbucks Sulawesi Coffee is 3 excellent choices. These are full-bodied coffees yet very smooth tasting. They are some of our best sellers at PerfectCoffees.com and work well for French Press brewing.

You want to grind the coffee slightly larger than you would for drip coffee. Too fine of a grind will produce a bitter cup of coffee. If your grind is too coarse, the coffee will taste weak. A quality grinder is the best thing you can do to improve the taste of French press coffee.

Remove the plunger from the press pot and put 1 rounded tablespoon of coarse ground coffee per each 6oz. of water into the pot. You can adjust this to your own taste.

Coffee is 99% water so use clean filtered or bottled water free from chlorine and other minerals that affect the taste of coffee.

Boil the water and remove it from the heat for five minutes before you pour it. This will give you the 195 to 205 degree water that is ideal to brew with. Now pour the 195 to 205 degree water over the ground coffee.

Stir the coffee to get total saturation of the grounds then place the plunger on top of the pot and let the coffee steep for 3 to 4 minutes.

Depress the plunger slowly to push the grounds to the bottom of the pot.

Serve all the coffee in the pot after the 3 to 4 minutes of steeping. Otherwise the coffee will keep getting stronger.

If you have any left, you can always transfer it to a clean, preheated air pot or a stainless steel Thermos. This will keep the coffee hot about an hour without hurting the flavor.

The French press brewing method definitely takes more time but gives us the result we are looking for. Restaurant quality coffee in the comfort of your own home.

Spice Grinder Krups

The Krups Coffee/Spice Mill is a good value for the money. I use it primarily for grinding toasted seeds for Indian dishes (cardomman pods, cloves, cumin seed, peppercorns, coriander seed, mustard seed, chiles etc.). Spice Grinder Krups I read the reviews on how the plastic lid will 'cloud' from certain spices (e.g., cloves) and that doesn't matter to me. This grinder isn't a piece of artwork - it's a cooking tool.

Spice Grinder Krups

Where I used to spend 20 minutes with a hand-operated mill, the Krups does the same thing in about 5 seconds. It cleans up easily -

Spice Grinder Krups

it's all self-contained and there aren't any burrs to clean out - it's totally blade-operated. In a perfect world, it would grind more precisely (fine to coarse) - Spice Grinder Krups but that would require burrs and the cleaning associated with them. So for me and my needs, it's a good value for the money. The time I saved with the first usage more than pays for the machine.
