Vitamix is a great blender, but I agree, it's too big for this kind of
job. I use a little whirly-blade coffee mill my wife keeps for grinding
herbs and flax seed. (I use a burr grinder for coffee.) It takes about a
cup at atime, and in 30-60 seconds, reduces granulated sugar to a very
fine powder.
