Spaniel Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Where can I buy a small coffee grinder in either Bangkok or Pattaya. I want to use it to grind flax seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDan Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 We bought ours a year ago at the Emporium department store off Phrom Pong BTS. It's the blade type grinder, not the burr. I know we use it for grinding small quantities of all sorts of things (nuts/seeds). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvs Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 We use our blender to grind all kind of things,maybe worth a try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemel Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I bought mine in Central Pattaya and use it for coffee & flax seeds as well, cost 3,000 B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soutpeel Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Central department store - THB 1200 - bought at Central in Pattaya, use mine for coffee and flax seed (not at the same time of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess he got the deluxe model? I don't know, when I bought the one I bought, there where a few different ones/different prices, think the most expensive was THB 6000 and the cheapest THB 800 or there about, but the THB 800 one looked a bit shoddy, and the THB 1200 one was sized about right for what I wanted, the photo below is similar to the one I bought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemel Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 De'Longhi Coffee Grinder Black, Central were selling them priced around 3,000 Baht, I got mine included in the offer when I bought a De'Longhi coffee machine. Good grinder, 3 settings but I think you can get them cheaper if you buy online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcab Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 My wife got a Magic Bullet grinder from Lazada for 1890 baht. She uses it for flax seed, sesame seed, etc and is very happy with it. http://www.lazada.co.th/magic-bullet-black-814695.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDan Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 For 3000 Bt that grinder better be growing, roasting, and hauling the beans right into the kitchen as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterb17 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Try Chic Republic- they have a very good selection of electrical goods - most imported and not the cheapest. What is it with flax seeds? Do they taste good or meant to be super healthy? Definitely not an English thing- never heard of them until I moved to Thailand- but some TV members seem obsessed with flax!

Jessi Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Flax seed improves your sex life. So Im told but I have never tried it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chingmai331 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 That's right. Grind the flax seeds into a thick salve, like peanut butter, and smear it on the member. Wait one hour and rinse, then proceed to sex. Works every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can be used as an egg replacement in cooking / baking. Grind them, mix them with water and after some soaking time you end with a liquid the consistency of egg-whites. They can also me mixed into a smoothie as they're both a good source of ALA (a component of Omega-3) and will help keep you bowels moving regularly.

They make you defecate regularly which from what I understand becomes harder to do with age, hence increasing the fibre in ones diet, and might explain the obsession with flax seed, given the typical demographic of TV Ie older gentlemen who are full of poo However no amount of flax seed consumed can give some members the sense of humour they desperately need Edited July 9, 2015 by Soutpeel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The smoothie sounds delicious - can you make healthy meringue with this egg white replacement? I discovered that in England we call it linseed - at school I used to oil my cricket bat with linseed oil. Edited July 9, 2015 by peterb17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be quite honest if the old chaps had a decent diet and included a load of spicy Thai food I do not think they would need extra help with the defecation problem. On another post I hear you can make sumptuous cakes and even whip them up into a fabulous smoothie - it seems that there is no end to the usefulness of this great seed- and titilate your taste buds at the same time.

bamnutsak Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I bought this one a few years ago on Lazada. Still working well. I think I paid 650 THB then, now (on sale) 750 THB. http://www.lazada.co.th/princess-242195-177653.html http://www.lazada.co.th/catalog/?q=coffee+grinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
