THANK YOU for your honest review. It supports what others have been saying, although you are the first to be quite so concerned with the cleaning. I wonder if you are making sure to clean it IMMEDIATELY after using it? Things are always so much easier to clean if washed right away (except for pans that get burned on the bottom and need to soak first). Also, I hope you know the trick of using toothbrushes dedicated for kitchen use, because they are so great at cleaning out the little holes and crannies. I am getting a Nutrimill Artiste very soon and am still happy about it, because I almost never make cookies -- and I will know not to use it for cookies. For me, I want to be making whole grain bread, at least two loaves, every week. I keep my bread in the freezer and thaw it out the night before (or so) before using so it never goes bad if unexpectedly it is not eaten. Same with pizza dough -- will not probably be making the whole grain pizza dough that often, but when I do I will make enough for 2-3 pizzas and freeze all but one to use right away. I mill my wheat, etc. at home (using my BlendTec blender) and am VERY excited about just how nutritious whole grain home-milled flour is, but have been making it "by hand" only for years and am beyond tired of kneading and just end up making really dense loads since I don't knead it. It is going to be GREAT to get this machine for making whole grain breads, rolls, pizza crusts, muffins, etc. Especially since most of my life I though of bread as my enemy and bad for me. It took me a while to get used to the very different color, texture and taste of whole grain bread, but once I got familiar with it I now LOVE it and am so appreciative of its nutritive value which is SO great a person could pretty much live on it. P.S. I hear that the attachments for things like scraping the bowl and making cookies, etc. have plastic parts that break easily -- and people who DO want to make cookies and cakes a lot are happier with the Bosch attachments which in at least many cases fit perfectly into the Artiste. My guess is you will want to get those!
I think you will love your Nutrimill Artiste if you are using it for bread making. That’s why I can’t get rid of it. It’s amazing for batch cooking and bread making. I am the first to think it’s hard to clean. I also watched many reviews on it before purchasing and everyone said it was easy to clean. I do clean it right away but I still think it’s hard to clean because it’s so many pieces. But the more I use it the less hard it feels to clean but I do miss just having just a bowl and paddle to clean. I will definitely be looking into a toothbrush cleaner for the kitchen. I have a blendtec as well it’s powerful blender. If you ever in the look for a grain mill I can’t recommend the mockmill 100 enough. I love it. I am all about ease of use and nutrimill stone mill seems very complicated to use vs the mockmill.
Yes, I am compulsive about cleaning kitchen things RIGHT AWAY -- always so much easier -- and have a kitchen toothbrush as well as another similarly sized brush that has hard brushes going straight down and sideways. Love those things! My only real concern at this point is whether I can make just one loaf of bread with 3 cups of whole grain. Do you have an opinion on that? (My Artiste is supposed to be delivered TODAY....!@@reymulberry
@@WholeBibleBelieverWoman i made a single batch of pizza dough the other day and it did just fine. I do suggest if using fresh milled flour to let it sit with the water for 15 min before adding the yeast so that the grain can absorb some of the water it will make it easier to knead in the nutrimill.
I have a limited budget, so I ruled out all the electric stone mills. I was able to get the Wondermill electric grain mill by the skin of the teeth, but I LOVE it. It seemed more "romantic" to get a stone mill, but it just wasn't an option -- and in the end it's not a problem for me that the Wondermill does not really do the coarser millings, since I still have my Blendtec blender (which is similar to a Vitamix) I can use for making coarse flours for things like cornbread or cream of wheat, etc. Honestly I had thought I would have to wait another year to get the grain mill -- and am SO happy that I have it now!@@reymulberry
Family size of 2 (for the time being anyway) and you just saved me $300.
Thank you!
I’m so glad my review helped out your family.
Side note since this video I got rid of the nutrimill artiste and went back to the cuisinart.
Very informative and real
I agree 100%!
