dehydrators I've got the dehydrator, and the dried peppers. . .

I could use my coffee grinder, or my blender I suppose. BUT, has anyone tried this, or something like it to make powders?

I would like to use a dedicated piece of equipment for my superhots. I like my coffee to wake me up in the morning, but I dont want to start sweating on my couch at 6am.
 
What grinders work best for you?

I use the magic bullet that used to be advertised on tv.

I would recommend somethig with pieces that can be placed in the dish washer.

A grinder that is open air like a morter and pestle will mess your world up with the air born particles.

Blender and mason jars is what I use.  Works great and they're already in their storage container, so no transfer necessary.  I get a nice fine grind with that method.

I purchased a $12 Braun coffee grinder from Target for my dried peppers a few years ago - still works and I still use it.  (Wife has another for coffee!)
 
Then I got this grinder as a Christmas gift a year ago.  Really exceptionally happy with it.  I would not have spent that amount on a grinder for myself, but damn if I'm not super glad the MIL did.  Excellent piece of equipment, has handled large (5lb dried pepper) batches and grinds to a very fine powder.  
 
For small batches and custom blend stuff I still use the coffee grinder and would recommend it to anyone.  When you step into larger batches the Waring really shines.

I bought the waring as well. Its great for peppers. Anybody found it sucks at coffee? I say it does.. big chunks no matter what I do...

I have the GE Savor combo coffee/spice grinder, and like it. I'm not a coffee drinker, so it doesn't get used for that. However, it has multiple settings for coarseness/fineness, so I can get flakes or powders as desired.
