    Great video. I have one also. I think mine is the size bigger. 116 if my memory serves me right. I added an electric motor to mine. It is great but does take it out of the kitchen. I am planning to grind corn meal and grits this weekend. Thanks for posting.

    I have this one also, I need to get the motor as with my RA I personal can’t get enough ground. I do love it and we have moved three times with ours!

      I like that, in the booklet that comes with it, they tell the specs of the motor needed and don't push theirs exclusively

    I use a bar high wood stool to clamp my grinder to. I wasn't even using my mill much until I figured that out! I have the corundum stone on my much cheaper grinder which I am not happy with. After several batches of rice flour, I am still getting bits of aluminum oxide in my flour, although it is better. Steel plates are versatile, too, you can do greasy things like peanut butter or sesame butter (my fav). I definitely recommend steel or real stone, not corundum. I also find it is much easier on me and the machine to pass grain through twice to get flour. Probably faster.

      I wasn't aware of corundum stone. Thank you for sharing

    Love the review. Thanks for the tips. We have the same silicone brush.
    My 2 cents. After another video, my husband bolted our mill to a sturdy cutting board. Ours is an unfinished KitchenAid 16x12x1 1/4" big. That's 7" of clearance from duster to edge to set our bowl.
    Primary grind will be einkorn berries. My 3 year old is going to love his new job.

      Thank you! That is a great idea. Makes it easy to move around, when needed. With einkorn, i think you'll find it usually only takes 1 pass for a usable flour. To get really fine stuff, 2 passes should do it. The only floyr i have to run through multiple passes regularly is the hard red winter wheat.

    I would love to see a video of you grinding beans. Bean flours are used in lots of plant based cooking. I have a mockmill. I got it primarily to grind Einkorn.(It was gift from my hubby) I discovered Einkorn last year and fell in love with it. It makes the yummiest bread. I am looking at this mill as an alternative to my Mockmill. I think the exerise would be good for me. Einkorn is a soft wheat I bet it would need only 1 pass. Thanks for the video. Happy Baking!

      That is a very good point. Thank you for sharing your idea. I nearly purchased a mockmill before finding Grainmaker. They are a high quality mill.

    Thanks for the review. I bought mine during the pandemic lockdowns, but I haven't used it yet. 🤦‍♀️

      I hope that you will fall in love with it. It is a workout at first, but that becomes easier. I would love to hear what you think of it when you use it.

    How is it grinding dried corn kernels, anyone?

    • @hearthofcole1531

      I haven't tried corn, yet. As nicely as it handles wheat, I am confident it would breeze through it.
      Hmmmm....now I have a hankering for cornbread🤭

    Is it cast iron?

    • @hearthofcole1531

      Sorry for the delay. I know it is of steel construction. The wheel is the only part that may be cast iron
