Is there a slow speed walnut grinder?
I am currently grinding walnuts at home using a manual grinder and I would like to use an electric one.
I have seen there are several models available on the market, but I haven't seen one which can be adjusted for slow (speed) grinding. This is useful when the walnuts aren't perfectly dried.
So, I am looking for a home-use walnut grinder with a low speed setting (similar to the speed achieved using a manual grinder). Does anybody know if such a grinder exists?

How do you slow down a grinder?
Slow speed grinders are kinder and more forgiving to the workpiece. Tools of this sort operate at speeds of 1800 RPM, or even slower. These relatively slow RPMs generate heat too, but it happens at a more controllable pace that is ideal for work on delicate metals.What is considered a slow speed grinder?
A slow speed grinder is ideal for sharpening tools without generating the edge destroying heat that you get so quickly from 3450 RPM grinders. Wheels are 1" x 8", 60 and 120 grit.Slowspeed carbide grinder
