I have a cast iron mill by Universal bought before I knew anything about coffee mills. The cast iron is fastened to the wood base with two screws. One no longer grips. I''ll probably try to fix it by inserting a toothpick in the stripped hole. But I''m shopping for a better home mill.

I''ve found many on the Web I''d happily own, but I don''t want to wait for delivery. I''d like to go out today or tomorrow to buy one, but don''t know where in New York City to go. Anyone know? I expect that Bed, Bath & Beyond, for instance, would carry only electric grinders. What about coffee shops that sell hardware? I can''t find a definitive answer by searching on Google, Froogle, or Yahoo! Yellow Pages, for instance.

I''m looking for a manual mill with a conical burr. (The Universal appears to have a wheel burr.) I like the knee mills by Zassenhaus, but they''re evidently unavailable except second-hand.
