Great For Food Storage
Wheat is the Ultimate Food Storage Item
If stored correctly, wheat will last at least 25 years and probably longer. When you grind your wheat into flour it only lasts a few months before it goes bad. Keeping a wheat grinder with your wheat storage enables you to grind wheat as circumstances dictate and keep your long term storage intact. In addition, your freshly ground flour is more nutritious than store bought flours.
- Hand crank mills generate less heat and preserve the grain's nutrients
- Create more interesting and flavorful breads

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So maybe my previous negative bias is making this grinder seem even better than it is. I mean, I have had ground meat, nuts, and other sundries with the old cast iron grinders in the past. And boy, was that a chore!
So when I set up this new grinder and started grinding rice to prep it for flour, I was bracing myself to hate it. 15 minutes later I had a relatively fine grind of rice that actually amazed me.
When I moved on to my precious wheat berries, I found I could roughly grind 2 cups in about 15 minutes, then tighten the burrs for a fine powder and finish a fine flour in another 20 minutes or so.
The first time I used it I attached it to an antique Hoosier hutch and it did not scratch the wood surface despite all the wobbling. Since then I have found a way to attach it to our kitchen island, just in case it starts scratching surfaces with wear. So far so good.
As for the flour... I have baked 4-5 loaves of sourdough with it so far and they are wonderful. Mind you, a lot of that is wheat quality, etc but I have noticed no major issues with coarse flour, chunkiness, heaviness...
Also, I am not as fit as I once was, so I expected this to be a bit brutal, but I have found that I enjoy grinding my grain when I have the extra time. Its a light workout depending on how much you need to grind, but certainly nothing terribly fatiguing, even for a middle aged, somewhat overweight woman. 🤣 If I can do it, so can you! Promise. All you need is a bit of patience and a good book or podcast to entertain you.
Finally, a bit of advice... 1. Don't fill the hopper all the way. Just add enough grain to fill the grinding area and continue trickling it in. The more full the hopper, the tougher it is to grind. 2. If you want fine flour, don't try to grind it fine right away. Run the grains thru on a loose/coarse grind first to break them up a bit (see my pic), then run the coarse ground wheat thru the mill set to fine grind. And voilà! Beautiful, healthy, delish flour!
I am so pleasantly surprised by this little grinder that I really did want to share with others who may also have their doubts. If you want to bake a little bread from home-ground flour, this is an excellent machine. I wouldn't want to grind more than 1000 grams or so in a day, but thats enough for a few loaves of bread for many basic recipes. It is easy to use, effective and affordable. I definitely recommend!
*Note: I haven't yet ground anything but rice and whole wheat in it, so I can't speak to spices, flax, etc. I can't imagine it will do a bad job with those either tho.

Update: I found the mill cannot grind annatto seeds. Even though the annatto seed appears to be a dry seed and not oily, but after grinding a few it forms a hard dry paste around the auger and that's it, the mill gets clogged and no more seeds can go down the grinding path.
Update: As you grind, the handle movement tightens the bolt that holds the handle and it results in a gradually finer grinding and it ends on the auger being completely tight and no allowing the product to grind at all. I hope this can be solved by installing a washer. I will keep you updated

Would be nice if they used stronger plastic when grinding it bends a little but still works
The mill teeth is very high quality. It is obvious the material is cast professionally by engineers who knew what they were doing.
Operation is easy and quick. The hand-mill does work your arm to get decent amount of flour. For an average dude like me, it feels like I am cleaning glass pane when rotating, so it is fairly easy and smooth to make your flour manually. The clamp is really nice. You get 200g flour from about 5 min of milling at average speed.
The flour obviously needs to be sifted, even if you want to get whole-wheat flour, because the wheat bran content has to be lower to allow gluten development, so get yourself a nice fine sifter, and sift the milled flour. (Add back small amount of the bran to create whole-wheat breads).
The flavour of bread is phenomenally better than what you get from any store-bought flours. I hear there is trace amount of rodent and insect parts in those flours you buy in stores, which require a lot of chemical processing to reduce to acceptable levels, but you never get rid of those completely in any industrial settings. I think there is a Health Canada regulation allowance of 15 particles of pest and rodents per 100 grams of flour (if I remember correctly), which all flour sellers have to comply with. There is another story I heard from a guy who worked in flour mills, who said basically the way to deal with rats in wheat inventory after harvest is to allow the rat to eat and engorge as much wheat as they can, until their gut explodes of disintery. They are then filtered out the rodent corpse and any larvae from the wheat, with some obvious trace amount left. I guess that's where the 15 particles comes in regulations. With your own grain mill though, you will have none of that gross problem.
Initially I went cheap and bought one of those corn-mill hoppers. Don't waste your time and money for those if you want to mill wheat. Mine broke a piece and metal and milled it into flour. Had to return. Don't go cheap for your flour mill.
