I did but mainly to make sure it wasn't the grinder (which worked fine when plugged into an extension cord. </div>

<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Probably an obvious question, but did you unplug the grinder to make sure it's not just continuing to trip the breaker?</p>

It is simply a matter of replacing the breaker with a new one or might there be another issue in the circuit? Near as I can tell that breaker only has one outlet on it. (house was built in 1905 or so and still has active knob and tube. ffs. And there are at
least four breakers controlling our tiny kitchen.) Also, the outlet is not GFI so I want to replace it but can't really fit under the sink to do it. </div>
