150g Grain Mill, 304 Stainless Steel Spice Grinder, 1500W High-speed Commercial Flour Mill, Superfine Flour Mill Grinder for Home, Grain Mill for Flour

I always read reviews before purchasing an item. There were complaints that the motor burned out quickly on this mill. Here what I believe lies the problem. When milling grain berries, seeds or really anything. The whole mill gets very hot. Enough to burn your skin. After I empty the contents. I wait at least 10 to 15 minutes before using the mill again. This allows the whole mill time to cool down. I will definitely get many years of use from this mill.DO NOT RUN THIS MILL CONTINUOUSLY FOR MORE THAN 5 MINUTES. Or the motor will burn out quickly. I NEVER run the mill continuously for more than 3 minutes. At 3 minutes the mill turns 500 grams of Hard White Wheat Berries into a fine flour. DO NOT SUBMERGE THE MILL IN WATER. Use the provided brush and a damp not dripping wet cotton towel. To clean the inside and outside of mill. I fortunately have an air compressor and blow out any residual dust left. Then I wipe the mill down with a day not dripping wet cotton cloth. This mill is quite noisy and don’t leave the mill running and walk away from it. It does move around on my counter top. Enough that it could possibly make it to the edge of my counter top and fall off. Don’t add more volume than your mill says. After several uses. I used a cordless impact driver with a 17 mm deep well impact socket. To remove the acorn nut and blades. To deep clean the mill and look for any worn out parts. Using the provided brush and a damp not dripping wet cotton cloth. I made excellent whole wheat grain bread. Using the mill to grind into flour Hard White Wheat Berries. I also used my Kitchen Aid K5SS. With the dough hook to knead the dough until it doesn’t tear apart and stretches. This took 13 minutes. Whole wheat grain bread is actually healthy. I also incorporated toasted Sun Flower seeds,toasted Pumpkin Seeds. Flax and sesame seeds into the dough the last 3 minutes. This grain bread is absolutely delicious. It also freezes well and is easy to slice with a serrated bread knife when froze. NO PRESERVATIVES . I also always have on hand Sour Dough Starter. No yeast required to make bread. The difference in taste between packaged yeast and the natural wild yeasts floating around in the air and naturally on Wheat Berries and in Wheat or White flour. That creates the sour dough starter. Is like night and day. Don’t get me wrong, packaged yeast is perfectly fine to use instead of sour dough starter. I do occasionally use yeast when making certain recipes. Sour Dough Starter is simple to make yourself. It can take up to 12 days for the Sour Dough Starter to be able to be used. Usually 4 to 6 days. You do have to discard half of it Sour Dough Starter. Until it is ready to use. After that you use half of your Sour Dough Starter then add the same amount of flour and non chlorinated water to the left over Sour Dough Starter. It will last in your refrigerator for at least 2 weeks before the Sour Dough Starter begins to spoil. If the 2 weeks are nearing. Discard half of the Sour Dough Starter and add equal amounts of flour and non chlorinated water. DO NOT USE DISTILLED WATER. You should always use non chlorinated water when making bread. I’ve a filter for the cold water on my kitchen faucet. Sometimes I will double filter the already filtered water from my cold water side of my kitchen faucet. By running the already filtered water through my 1 gallon container brita filter. The night before I’m going to make more bread. I boil a gallon of water from the cold side of my kitchen faucet. After boiling the water for 5 minutes. I remove it from the stove and put a lid on the pot. Doing this will dissipate any chlorine that shouldn’t be present from the filtered cold water from my kitchen faucet. You can also use spring or purified water. There are plenty of easy to follow recipes to make Sour Dough Starter on YouTube. If you enjoy making you own bread? Go ahead and make your own Sour Dough Starter. It will last indefinitely if you use it regularly and replace the same amount of flour and water.

I wanted to add some more nutrition to what my family eats. Store-bought foods are less than healthful. But whole grain is an excellent source of plant-based protein, healthy fats (especially Vitamin E/alpha-tocopherol), B vitamins like thiamine and folate, as well as minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc. Whole grains also contain dietary fiber, antioxidants, and phytochemicals. You can add ground grains to foods like yogurt, smoothies, baked goods, hot cereals, and even use them as a substitute for breadcrumbs. You could buy store-bought wheat germ, but it needs to be stored in the refrigerator or freezer. With a grinder, I can make just the amount I need. To do this, I now buy wheat kernels (often called wheat berries), either online or in physical stores. I bought my grain grinder from OKF. I trust them. I previously purchased an OKF ice shaver and know that they offer commercial-quality machines for homes like mine. The grinder turns what you put into it into powder. This is great for grinding just a small quantity of coffee beans for immediate use. Still, for coffee, I will continue to use my conical burr coffee grinder that provides a precise grind. But for making bread, the high-powered (but noisy) stainless steel grinder is precisely what is needed. I ordered the smallest unit, and it is the perfect size for me and my kitchen. Most of the issues in the negative reviews have been addressed, but I also think that including a tool to remove the blade would be a good idea. Of course, it does include a brush, which makes cleaning the bowl easy. It is easy to use and well worth the price.

I bought this grinder for grinding up grains for brewing beer at home. It really does work well for grinding. However, I have some mixed feelings about grinding of my grains. Both blades (included) seems to always grind the grains into a powder, whereas I need a course grind. I have tried cycling the power off and on, resulting with only a partial batch of grains was actually getting ground up. I have only tried it once so far, but I am going to try it again shortly, to see if I can find a method that will work with this unit for me to get a more consistent and usable grind out of it. Will I recommend this unit? Yes I would. As it may have its drawbacks for grinding my grains, it does a great job turning grains and other things up really nicely and quickly. It’s a little noisy, but not annoying or anything for me to be upset with it. If you want to grind stuff up for baking or something else (other than for brewing) it’s a great option to use.

It dose the job at just one minute for making real wheat bread any longer it becomes dough. Shift the flour and regained. Don't over time the process it gets too hot and turns into dough. I truly love it. Well worth the price.

Great little mill. I love making my own flours. Perfect choice
