Our verdict

A sound choice for home cooks who grind soaked rice for idly batter on a North American outlet. The coconut scraper is only optional and the listing leaves out the unit weight.

Overview

Not a blender with spinning blades, the Elgi Ultra is a tabletop stone wet grinder for batter. A conical stone turns inside a stainless steel drum, and an easy lock system holds the parts together while it grinds soaked rice.

Stone grinding is why it earns counter space: the conical stone works soaked rice against the drum instead of chopping it. The drum is food grade stainless steel and the body uses rust proof materials. Expect a long footprint and a short parts list, with only the lid named as included.

Who it's for

Households that grind soaked rice for batter on a regular basis get a dedicated stone grinder plus an atta kneader for dough. Cooks with a tight counter, or who grind only small amounts now and then, should look at a mixer grinder instead.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Batter texture comes from the conical stone working the soaked rice against the stainless drum, so grinding time and soak quality govern the result. The easy lock system holds the assembly in place during a run, and the seller describes the operation as quiet and vibration free.
