@@MillennialHomemaker from where did you get the information too use oil to clean for the first time? I thought I could also grind rice first time and throw it away. Then wash and use normally.
@@emmyin I searched in the internet before buying the grinder. And this is what I found. Using rice and to discrediting after grinding would work too. If I have to do it again I would do both before using the grinder. Run the grinder with oil and then grind rice. Hope it helps.
What you suggested here might have worked well and is perhaps a good idea. However, the manual clearly says not to lubricate parts with oil/grease. If I do, I might lose warranty for the product. Thank you for the video but in this instance, I will choose not to use oil.
You are most welcome. I’m glad you thought the video was helpful. I have posted a few recipe videos with this grinder. Feel free to check them out. Thank you for the comment 😊
But in the user manual, they mentioned 'do not lubricate any parts with oil/grease' So, is it ok to run the grinder with oil? Pls reply.. I bought new grinder
Thank you for your comment. Grated coconut and fenugreek will be slightly expensive option than rice. Also they are softer than rice hence less effective.
Thank you for the informative video. Using the oil for cleaning seems to be an effective method. Question: is the oil method what is recommended by the vendor? I have seen people recommend the first use is with soaked rice and others mention oil. I purchased a Premier wet grinder but there was no mention of this in the manual.
This was not in the manual to use oil. I did my research And came up with it. And I could see a lot of dirt accumulated in the oil which showed that it worked. If I had to do it again I would do a step 2 and grind with soaked rice and discard the batter too.
Thanks for the suggestion. I did the soap & water followed by the oil cleaning, which had similar results as in the video. Next I did the soap & water followed by the soaked rice. This, for the most part, looked clean but I did see a few black oil drops come out of the axel of the grinding stones. Also the scraping tool had some black on it. Now I feel like I can use it for food.😊🙏
One thing occurred to me is that with just running the oil it seemed to be louder. Was this the case for you? There is a part of me that wonders if running with only liquid protects the stones enough. For instance maybe this has an unintended consequence of adding additional friction on stones, which makes the oil even more dirty. Maybe 30min could be too long but I agree that it seems to do a very good job of cleaning. I also used the supplied spatula to redirect some of the oil so both grinding stones got “wet” with the oil.
No. You need to do this only the first time after you buy the grinder. Because the stones are new and it needs seasoning. Otherwise small particles of stones might end up in your food. Once the stones are seasoned well, this will not happen.

It’s mentioned so in the user manual. I believe it’s because the bottom is considerably heavier than the sides and it could damage the adhesion between the bottom and sides.
@@MillennialHomemaker i have tried cocoa nibs in my wet grinder Lakshmi coimbatore it does fine but u have a seperate model from Elgi ultra for cocoa nibs which runs for 99 hours as chocolate requires long time atleast 1 hour minimum....am planning to buy new premier wet grinder do u have any idea pls guide...

I highly appreciate you taking time out to type the detailed reply. This is exactly what I was planning to do as per my research. The whole process of chocolate making is so intimidating. For tempering I was thinking to use the thermometer method. For how long did you grind the cocoa nibs for?
Thanks for the video, by now you have used the grinder for 2 years and what is your opinion about the grinder? Are you still happy with the premium price paid or rather cheaper butterfly would have served the purpose?
I have only used this one grinder. So can't tell you a comparison. But if I ever buy another grinder I would try to go for a cheaper one. Hope I answered your question.
@@MillennialHomemaker Thanks for your reply. I had purchased 3 conical stone butterfly grinder and it went on and on for 20 years. Nowadays most brands are coming with 2 cylindrical stones only. Another problem is no brand other than butterfly and elgi give arm to give constant pressure for grinding. Yesterday I too bought an Elgi 2litre gold grinder and found that the top cover is too flimsy and will break in no time. Your video was very hepful. I feel that overall built of butterfly is much more robust.
Thanks for information n details. Just want to know the difference Elgi utra gold n ulta glod Capacity 2L can you please type in flipkart elgi ultra glod wet grinder n ultra wet glod grinder for 2L Case but in the box I could not see that word Elgi and in this video itself could not find that. eligi ultra glod model or ultra wet grinder model any diff.

@@MillennialHomemaker yes... Abowl of sand and raw rice added water...for 2-3 minutes.... For the new grinders Usually our granny use to grind with sand and rice husk .... Husk not available these days so option for raw rice... Or u can go with rock salt also
Mustard seeds and poppy seeds are not as hard as raw rice. By grinding the rice we are trying to make the granite surface smooth as rice is hard and rough. Hope I could clarify the question.

Can we remove batter while machine is running
Hi Afija. You need to turn off the machine to remove the batter.
Millennial Homemaker ....der is no timer in this ?
There is no timer in this model.
There is another model "perfect+" by ultra with timer.
But in the user manual, they mentioned 'do not lubricate any parts with oil/grease'
So, is it ok to run the grinder with oil? Pls reply.. I bought new grinder
I don’t remember seeing that in the manual. I guess it’s ok as we are using edible oil for grinding.
Please look in the manual. It clearly says “”not to lubricate the parts with oil/grease. “”

For 4 cup quantity rice which capacity of wet grinder should take?
2 litre capacity should be right. I grind 4 cups of rice in 1 batch.
