Hi, it looks amazing. I wonder if this is the right product for me given I am growing my own wheat and corn, which makes the total of 400 kg of wheat and 100 kg of corn per year. So, instead of milling it all into flour I could store grains and mill it as needed. Is it a good idea for home use? And how durable are the stones and the motor with this type of use? Thanks and best regards.
Yes, the mic is turned down during processing just to prevent louder sound spikes, especially for headphone users. We're not trying to hide the sound of processing - it is loud - we're just trying to damage anyone's ears :). You can hear the sound of the motor without processing around 3:50 without the volume adjusted.
All the other stone mills from other companies do not allow for actual popcorn to be milled (just dent corn), I noticed that in this video it is specifically stated that this mill can mill popcorn, is that accurate?
@@kasalica85 Type 400 is quite fine, with bran and endosperm removed, so careful sifting would be needed. Home grain mills are designed to make whole wheat flour, although sifters are available.
@@sanaproducts6586 yes, exactly. I know that grain mills are designed to make whole grain flour. I just wanted to know whether it is possible to get type 400/500 flour after sifting. I also want to use flour for pancakes and sometimes need finer granularity.
@@kasalica85 You should be able to get that degree of fineness with a burr mill like the Sana, since you can adjust the stones until they are touching each other. I use one at home and get very fine grain (albeit whole wheat) flour.
Basically, you can grind anything that is not oily or moist, as they will leave a residue on the grinding stones. Most spices, as long as they are dry, grind well. Things like dried rosemary, coriander, sage, thyme, and pepper all work well.
How much? And how I can return it back if there’s any defect ? And how many guarantee years ? , could you please provide me more information about it 😁
@@Oralmaxillofacial5 The price varies according to the region. It currently costs 439€ in Europe and $449 in the USA. It has a 12-year warranty. The return policy will vary according to the retailer, but I've never seen a defective grain mill. They are simple and very durable products.
@@sanaproducts6586 what would not be identical ? Do they both produce flour at equal speeds ? Does the warranty cover all the parts even the pour spout for 12 years ? Do they both make equally fine flour ?
@@sanaproducts6586 the KiMo classic is solid beechwood too. If I compare it to the KoMo classic is the flour output speed the same and is the grain ground equally fine ? Also is the warranty a full warranty on all parts even the spout where the flour exits after it’s ground ?
@@4loveoffish Ahh I was comparing it with the Fidubus 21. You're right, the Medium also has a solid construction. The spout should also be warranteed. The main exclusions in the Komo warranty is that it must be used for non-commercial use, process only dry grains, and used according to the manual.

Hi. I replied to you directly by email. It works great at home, and the stones are virtually indestructible.
Are you turning down the mic volume during milling? Something sounds suspicious.

While we were able to mill popcorn, we only recommend dent corn as well. It was an experiment that the producer wanted to try.
Can you use it for almonds to make almond flour?
No, almonds contain oil which would coat the grinding stones.
Is this the same machine as the Komo?
It is manufactured in the Komo production facility, but with different specs.
@@sanaproducts6586 Thank you for your reply. Can you elaborate on the different specs?
@@debrad5783 Did Sana buy Komo? The Komo site says it is made exclusively in Austria and Sana’s site says Germany.
Hi can it process beans, lentils, and chickpeas?
Yes, it can process all of these, as long as they are completely dry.
Which is a fineness of grinding? Usually it is specified in mm, but I can't find that info.
It is adjustable from ultra fine (almost 0 mm) to coarse. The stones can be adjusted however you want, until they are almost touching each other.
So after grinding and sifting it can produce type 400 ?

How is the this comparable with the komo medium ?
They are for the most part identical.
@@sanaproducts6586 what would not be identical ? Do they both produce flour at equal speeds ? Does the warranty cover all the parts even the pour spout for 12 years ? Do they both make equally fine flour ?
@@4loveoffish The main difference is the finish. The Fidibus uses a wood veneer on the body, while the Sana is solid beechwood.
