To: TIA,

You should use your coffee grinder to make the flax meal.  Flax meal must 
be kept refrigerated and used fairly quickly, so the coffee grinder is 
precisely what you need to use.  My "signature" bread is a 100% whole wheat 
that also contains 2-3 tbs whole flax seed, which I grind into meal for 
each loaf.  Whole flax seeds have a very tough outer shell and, supposedly, 
can pass through our digestive system intact if not ground into meal.
