Quality German Construction:The Family Grain Mill System is manufactured in Germany by Messerschmidt.  We first brought them in directly in 1988 and because of the great quality that is built in the design, those first units we sold are still in use.  The Family Grain Mill is built with durable high carbon steel and a high quality polycarbonate that withstands years of use.  These units will last a life-time.

Mills Variety of Grains:  The Family Grain Mill will grind coarse cracked grains or steel-cracked cereal, to medium cornmeal textured  flour,  to fine flour for breads or cakes.  The grinding cone is infinitely adjustable. The milling head grinds a wide variety of grains and seeds including wheat, oats, corn, soybeans, rye, barley, rice, spelt, flax, buckwheat, millet, coffee, kamut, quinoa, and sesame (doesn't grind popcorn).  The FGM will also grind different spices like coriander, pepper corns and some chopped, dry, non-oily herbs and spices.  Nutrients are also preserved as The Family Grain Mill  grinds cool..

Grinds Quickly and Easily: It takes about 2 minutes to mill one cup of flour when using the hand mill or about one and a half minutes if using the electric motor which has 150 watts.  One cup of wheat will make about one and half cups of nice fine flour.  The hand base is easily to turn compared to other hand operated grain mills and usually requires a lot less time to produce a nice fine flour.  We have tested this mill against other hand mills that we sell and this one definitely makes the finest grind of the flour.  The large capacity hopper will hold 5 cups of grain.

Easy to clean:  All the components of the Family Grain Mill come apart quickly and will clean up easily.  Most times we just use a pastry brush to brush away the excess flour and then wipe clean with a dry cloth.  Even the milling heads can be taken apart in a few seconds to clean as well.  An extra bonus for the FGM system is that it is dust free.

Preserves Nutrients:  Similar to a pepper grinder,the milling head has cone-shaped carbon steel burrs that crush the grain with without creating high heat that come from friction type mills.  Heat is an enemy to the nutrients in your flour, and destroys the vitamins and minerals we want our fresh ground flour to have.  Stone mills can add grit and glaze over with grains that have extra oil in them, but the durable steel burrs in the FGM system will not have either of these problems and will produce years of service.  The Steel burrs are also easy to replace if needed.   

Grinds Quietly: The Family Grain Mill is a very quiet mill and you hardly notice it is working.

Stores and Sets-up Easily: Both the Family Grain Mill hand base or motor base are easy to use.  The Hand base has a solid wood base which clamps securely onto a counter-top or flat surface like a table edge with leaving marks.  The FGM Components all store in a compact space because they come apart. 

What Does it Mill?: Basically the Family Grain Mill grinds any grain and some seeds such as flax and sesame.  We can make wheat flour, corn meal flour, oat flour, rye flour, barley flour, rice flour, spelt flour, flax flour, buckwheat flour, millet flour, coffee, kamut flour, sesame, and more.  The mill will also crack grains to an infinite variety of sizes from "Cream of wheat" texture down to rice-size particles.

Grain Roller or Flaker Mill:  Rolls oats, wheat, rye, barley, kamut and spelt etc.  Some of the harder grains we recommend steaming slightly before rolling to get a bigger flake. 

Warranty: Manufacturer's lifetime warranty. (excluding replaceable burrs)

Included- Grain Mill, Flake Mill and Hand Crank with clamp

Quick Compare Guide:

The Family Grain Mill is much easier to turn than most hand operated grain mills. Will not grind as fast as an impact chamber mill such as the Nutrimill, or quite as fine of a flour though still fine enough for bread, but is much more versatile, as you can grind anywhere from cracking grains to flour with the turn of a knob. Oily grains/nuts such as peanuts and seasame will not hurt the Family Grain mill, as they will on an impact chamber mill such as the Nutrimill. Will Grind approx. 1 cup in 2 minutes w/ motor, and slightly less by hand. Though the Family Grain mill will not grind as fine as some of the impact chamber mills, this is much more versatile, and the easiest to operate hand mill we have ever tried.
