Something like horn loaded midbass going to a tractrix horn w/ a full range for above 250ish then?

Your ideas are going to get me into trouble Jim.

Which isn't to say they are bad spices, they just aren't uberlevel five star restaurant spices...

Fresh is the key more than anything and not that hard to get, just usually not available at megamart style places.

In theory I suppose one could do a tractrix on a cnc mill for the rough shape for the inside...

Damn it Jim... I have other things to be thinking about right now than this.

$10/lb. peppercorns, $15/lb. salt, etc. That kind of stuff.

$15/lb salt is a joke. Salt is salt as long as it has a reasonable consistency. Personally the extra flavorings and minerals found in most boutique style salts are only useful as table salt and NOT for cooking. I'd love to see the marketing for pepper that is that expensive as well. For cooking nothing beats Diamond Crystal Kosher salt, if you look at all 5 star anythings you will find it in their kitchen. Something like a buck a box too.

The one thing I will say that is worth having in exclusive quality is a salt mill and a pepper mill. Getting an even grind is really important in the process.

As for spices, I buy them in bulk at the organic coop. They are fresh and about 15% of the price that they are prepackaged in the grocery store. WAY better as well.

Other than of course the Indian spices I have brought to me once a year, but that shit is special and I pretty much only use it for asian cooking.

I can get pretty tasty whole spice spices here, cumin, coriander, pepper, etc. But I'm also lazy so I still have one or two or three seasoning blends in the cabinet

and yes, I just lumped India into Asia

Apparently its more "fruity" or some nonsense...

India is a part of Asia last I checked

Good thread. I like to whore.

Did you go through the initiation, new one ?

Know any online places that sell it?

The biggest concern with pepper is that it is ground fresh, pre-ground pepper is sort of useless.

When you talk to chef's they separate them. Perhaps I should have added the word cuisine

I think even Wallmart does. All of the local grocery chains here do except one. Really there are two brands of Kosher salt that are prevalent. Mortons and Diamond Crystal. Diamond is more consistent and nearly half the weight per unit volume of table salt while the Mortons kosher is only 25% lighter. In salt more volume per unit weight in cooking is always a good thing.

Imagine that, part of the Cargill giant. Man would I like to be a part of their family.

Would there be a market for any flat-pack full range enclosures and what not?

I wouldn't say that the full range market is huge, marketeers have a hard time convincing non-in-the-knows the value of a single driver when a stack of shitty ones in a box look so impressive.

Good lord, I made myself hungry again. Remind me later, I will post pics of my spice rack.

Very sad, but yet very true...

Half the reason I wanted the big fridge was for in door storage of things I will label condiments....don't take my label too seriously as a small bottle of ketchup lasts more than a year in this house.
