As above, I've got my missus old ninja blender but I can get about 150 grams of boilies in, it takes so long to do a decent amount.

Any recommendations on a larger one I could get 2nd hand etc would be much appreciated thanks

Have a look on the local Faceache pages usually a few on there. Can't go wrong with a kenwood or Moulinex. Other brands are available..

Burnt out my sisters one, now just using the Ridgemonkey one to reduce my boilies to bits / crumb. At least I won't destroy it in 30 seconds.

Food processor rather than a blender

As Framey says - get a processor (with a decent capacity and chopping blade) and you can blitz half a kilo in about 2x 30sec blasts . . . blenders only have a small claw at the base and tend to crumb up the bottom half of the container making the process a lot longer. Should be some good black friday deals on white goods at the mo . . .

Garden shredder, I have a used one from Facebook, cost a tenner.
You can tip raw tigernuts in it, frozen boilies whatever you want.
Tip them in once for chunky bits or pass it through a second time for fine crumb.

As someone who has painstakingly made little round balls throughout life this still breaks my heart. I'd always say basemix and small amount of binder / liquid is more attractive, much easier and cheaper - but totally get that's not what your asking!

Wouldn't the particle plate make proper crumb?

Yes. That's what I use to make crumb. Can do the drill modification and you can whizz through bait really quick.

Can't recall if it was on here but I know it's been suggested that you buy a cheap ish processor from Argos use it well and if it survives a year, its a result..if it dies return it under warranty for a replacement.

Bought a food chopper from ASDA, worked OK, finally packed up three weeks ago. Took it straight back and got my money back.

Yep 20kg at a time, I get all the off cuts and miss shaped boillies from a local company and do a big batch and freeze it,
