Elgi Ultra grinder Review 2023
Among the top wet grinders of this brand is Elgi ultra grind+. It comes with a 150 watts motor that allows the drum to rotate as fast as 140 RPM (with load). In addition to an AISI stainless steel drum that is rust-resistant. Which makes it ideal for storing batter for weeks at a time.
This wet grinder includes patented conical grinding stones. These stones produce less heat, resulting in lower fermentation, preserving nutrients, and leaving no part of your food unprocessed. It is made of a very durable material that lasts a long time. A powerful motor powers the grinder, which grinds the ingredients precisely.
Stainless steel is used for the body and the materials are rust-proof. The wet grinder appears tough and shiny because of this feature. It is one of the easiest models to maintain since it is easily washable. It is easily one of the best wet grinders in India.

- The heavy-duty motor ensures swift, even, and perfect grinding. Maintains a steady pace without overheating the batter.
- Due to its patented conical grinding stones, less heat is generated during grinding, which results in a higher fermentation rate. This means not only soft and fluffy idlis, but also more of them.

Why should you buy Elgi Ultra Gold Grinder?
The performance of this wet grinding machine is similar to that of the Ultra Perfect+ 2L model. In terms of cost, this appliance is almost Rs 2K cheaper.
Food-grade stainless steel drums are multi-purpose attachments. After grinding, you can place the batter directly in the refrigerator after storing it in the drum. For the average Indian family, the two-liter rust-resistant drum is perfect.
Among the unique features of Elgi Ultra wet grinders are their patented conical grinding stones.
Because conical stones grind the batter more smoothly without heating it, they provide better performance. This results in crispier dosas and fluffier idlis.
As the drum rotates, the flow breaker arrangement pushes the batter under the stones. As a result, the grinding process is sped up. A batter remover arrangement with specially-placed plastic teeth helps remove batter stuck to the grooves of the grinding stone.

Delivery:Since the product had to be shipped from South India, it took it’s time – but arrived as per the schedule.I had to return this because I didn’t find the user guide, warranty card and the batter cleaner in the box.PackagingFirst time it arrived in it’s original box. Second time it arrived in Amazon package box. Second time all parts arrived intact. Even the delivery person ensured the same.Thermocoal was protecting the grinder very well.Return process:Amazon was cordial in replacing the product. No further questions asked by them. There was some misunderstanding but rectified later with subsequent calls.Unpacking & How to start:The user guide is enough to get you started. The tips in the guide was written lucidly and was easy to follow. I found it very easy to use.Noise:Not as noisy as a mixie. But some whirring noise in the beginning which reduces once the batter is made.SmellI found no smell at all. Light smell is there but I hope it goes away with more use in the future.Cleaning:The drum is easy to clean and assemble. The grinder stones can be lifted off and replaced like a blender blade. The drum as mentioned can be used for storage of batter as well.The batter is made within 30 minutes. Leave the lid on and carry on with your work!Dosa and Idli turned out very well. They are very airy and very soft.I had bought this after Amazon recommended it as the best seller among grinders. I just blindly bought it trusting it’s ratings. I am very happy with the purchase. Value for money!! I would strongly recommend it to all Dosa and Idli making homes!

Update: 17June 2022Continue to works great. Touchwood.Ps: Got married in Dec 2021 and living near my maiden home so did not purchase new grinder (talk about expenses as newly married couple and being pregnant! Damn this महंगाई 😑 )=========Update: 26 July 2019Working great.==========18 May 2018:The Grinder continues to work smoothly.PS: I haven’t got married yet, so don’t have a chance to buy new grinder as I continue live in my maiden home.Oh but my brother is getting married in next month.Byeeeee=====================Original review:I just got the grinder and I got it working for idli batter.Mom says the batter is “light” aka airy. So hopefully so have great idlis tmrw. Will be eager to see how it turns out.I thought of helping other to understand how “big” the steel drum is:I weighed (with weighing scale) that it can hold 5.25litre of water. That means:1) 2litre of wet grinder = 5.25litre of water holding capacity2) 1litre of wet grinder = 2.7litre of water holding capacity (I simply halved it. I don’t own 1litre wet grinder)This should help you to understand how “BIG” ACTUALLY the steel drum is. Will update the review in coming months.Happy grinding!25 Sep 2017:Using this for almost 3 months. Working great. Batter turns out wonderful and fluffy.1) One tip: After you are done grinding remove batter in a atleast 1litre + large container than usual as the batter ferments well and becomes fluffy. Earlier we used to remove in our regular patela… But noticed the batter spills overnight during fermenting. So switched to larger patela.2) I also read some comments about lose lid…. Well I think the lid is not suppose to fit AIR TIGHT… Otherwise how do you imagine air to get into the batter while grinding??!!!If you are gentle and kind enough the lid should last you years if YOU ARE CAREFUL.3) Batter that we make in this usually half the drum capacity last us one week and use it three times a week. Mom grinds on Saturday… Use it for the week following. We family of 3 maharashtraian with average skills of making idli dosa. But this machine helps you reach better level with batter quality.4) It is not noisy at all. If you are used to television volume at normal level you won’t even notice this machine working at all.5) We usually grinder dal & rice together and leave it to run for 45min without bothering it. Idlis and dosa turns out fantastic. Idlis are soft, paper dosa is actually paper dosa and uttapa actually soft and fluffy.6) While grinding place the lid as it might get splashed a little. Not too much but little.7) You will stop using mixer grinder for idli grinding for generations to come.8) Add water while grinding in interval of 10-15min untill you figure out the consistency. Once confident then you can add at once.9) Scoop out the batter with regular Karchi. After than remove the conical stones in big plate and you can scoop the batter with hands.10) They give the scooper white in colour but my mom’s is more comfortable with hands than that plastic device.11) The motor heats up midly in 45min… Not much. That should bother you.12) Wash it yourself, wipe dry and assemble and keep it. Last thing you want is maid to handle stones roughly.13) I like the design as it is easy to use and understand without not much over do.When I get married I’m going to purchase one more of this and take it with me as “Dahej” :PBest product on Amazon I ever purchased!

The grinder does a fantastic job. It can even make a thick batter, which is great for making Vada as well.Just that cleaning those stones is cumbersome. Basically, handling them for cleaning is cumbersome, despite using the plastic batter- cleaner-attachment provided for cleaning. It is flimsy and moves around as we rotate the stones, making it difficult for cleaning.
