A grinder is faster and achieves a finer grind. A mortar and pestle can handle wet ingredients like pesto and makes a rougher texture which is good for some dishes. Personally I use a cheap coffee grinder for spices. I just used it to grind a bunch of cumin. Much fresher than the pre-ground stuff. Answer from Ajreil on reddit.com

What is a good spice/coffee grinder that I can buy?
Don't use the same grinder for spices and coffee. Your coffee will pick up flavors. I have used the Mr Coffee grinder for a while. One for spices and another for coffee I eventually got a good spice grinder by KitchenAid. It's small and has powerful motor. More on reddit.com

the smaller the better. Manual okay. I had been using a Mueller coffee/spice grinder (now deceased), which did not handle small amounts of spices well - too much space between the blade and the bottom of the cup. Anyone have experience with this one? or this one? More on hungryonion.org

r/cookingforbeginners on Reddit: What is a good spice/coffee grinder that I can buy?
February 5, 2024 -

I have a regular blender (ninja) that I LOVE for smoothies, milkshakes, and other cooking related needs but I need a small one for “dry grinding” I.e., grinder small amount of coffee beans, or spices. As well as a small amount of nuts, ginger garlic paste etc.

I recently bought one on Amazon but the very first use it kept stopping and didn’t grind anything.

Please give me your recommendations for spice grinders you’ve used and loved. Thanks!

Recommendations for a dedicated spice grinder? | Smoking Meat Forums - The Best Smoking Meat Forum On Earth!
December 10, 2023 - With that in mind, I bought a cheap Mr. Coffee burr grinder at Walmart and dedicated it to spices. It works great. It has a selector for the size of the grind, so you can grind spices coarsely or finely. One thing I don't like is the burr grinder can be a pain to clean.
