Just the beginning
I just get mine and immediately we start making some flour with Garbanzo beans. We found a problem because the size of the beans, they stuck themselves before entrance of milling head (it is what I figure it out). I start shacking unit and that helps, but it is not the way I expected milling. I hope I could find solution.
Other factor to take care it is the noise, it is a hard noise, harder than a vacuum cleaner, you must be prepared with an especial room where you could leave the unit working otherwise you will hurt your ears.
Important information missing here is what and what not you could mill. according to the user guide you will mill: Wheat (hard and soft), soybeans, dried pinto beans, chick peas, dried green beans, split peas, dried sweet corn, field corn, buckwheat, rye, triticale, barley, dried lentils, millet, dried mung beans, oat groats, legumes (generally), dried garbanzo beans, dried beans (most types), popcorn, sorghum (Milo).
Do not...
It works great!
I have used my new grain mill twice and it does a fabulous job of making wheat flour. It works quickly, and the noise isn't that bad at all. Even though this model does not have an adjustment for coarseness of the flour, I'm only using it to make bread flour, so it works great. Clean up is easy with the brush included and a soft cloth. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
excellent basic grain mill
This is a great basic grain mill. Aside from a minor quirk, it is easy to use and produces fine flour very quickly. I have not used the fine flour attachment yet as the mill works very well without it. So far I have only ground wheat and cannot comment on grinding other grains. It takes a little manual dexterity to open the flour bin, as two spring pins have to be pressed before you the lift the mill off the flour bin. Noise level is a little high, about like a shop vacuum. I grind flour outside on a screened porch so noise is not a problem. This is a great mill for anyone with normal dexterity. I think a person with arthritis would have problems opening the flour bin.
