[ECOLOG-L] how to grind up A LOT of leaf litter?

[Aaron Stoler]

I need to grind up a very large quantity of leaf litter, varying in 
toughness and size, for nutrient analysis.  For smaller amounts, I 
typically use a Wiley Mill, but for the amount that I need to grind, 
this is entirely impractical.  I am not very concerned with consistency 
of the grind, but I would like to get it down to a ground somewhere in 
the range of coffee grounds.  Does anyone have suggestions?

Thank you,
Aaron Stoler
