A condiment dispenser (10) with a grinding mechanism (28) according to the present invention comprises: a first part (26) defining an aperture (24) and surrounding inner surface (32), both with lobed cross-sectional profiles; and a second part (36) that is inside the first part (26) and can rotate about an axis (16) relative to the first part (26). The second part (36) has an outer surface (42) and the second part (36) and outer surface (42) both have lobed cross-sectional profiles. The inner surface (32) of the first part (26) and the outer surface (42) of the second part (36) are spaced apart by a gap (38) which is larger at a receiving side (48) of the grinding mechanism (28) and narrows in the axial direction towards a dispensing side (50) of the grinding mechanism (28).

A grinder for a spice mill, in particular a hand-operated spice mill, having an inlet side for entry of unground grinding stock and an outlet side for the exit of ground grinding stock, including a rotor, a stator interacting with the rotor and a housing at least partially surrounding the rotor and/or stator. The housing includes a stator housing part, which is substantially rotationally fixedly connected to the stator, and a rotor housing part which is rotatable relative to the stator housing part and is substantially rotationally fixedly connected to the rotor via a connecting element. The connecting element is at least partially received in a recess in the rotor, and the connecting elements and the rotor are frictionally connected. The housing has, on a side of the rotor facing the inlet side, a blocking element which blocks displacement of the rotor in the direction of the inlet side.

A foodstuff grinding device is a portable grinding apparatus for coffee beans, herbs, spices, marijuana, and the like. The device takes a form of a cylindrical shape. The bottom portion of the device includes a rechargeable battery that operates an internal electric motor via a control switch. The upper portion of the invention includes a compartment with lid that holds the material to be ground. The bottom of this compartment is provided with multi-blade grinding mechanism that is operated by the motor. In the instance where coffee beans are ground, the top of the unit mates with a Keurig? K-cup reusable coffee filters to allow for easy refilling of such devices. It is also provided with a clip to attach to the side of most Keurig? models.
