Image: An informational graphic detailing mixer grinder usage. It advises using less than 750W for regular grinding (dips, chutneys, purees, smoothies) and more than 750W for tough grinding (ginger, coconut, rice & lentils batter, dry masala). It also explains that a burning smell during first runs is due to evaporating varnish and that 80-90dB operating noise is normal, similar to a hair dryer, with a decibel level comparison chart.
