Grain Mill Grinder 750g High Speed Electric Stainless Steel Grinder Cereals Corn Flour Pulverizer Powder Machine for Dry Spice Herbs Grains Coffee Rice Pepper

While as noisy as an older Vacuum Cleaner, it does a nice job of grinding up Dehydrated Zuccini slices to the size of a coarse flour. It will grind dried spices quickly, and in the above last 3 images, it turned one pound of Spelt berries to 1 pound of Spelt flour quickly and easily.Unit has the rotary switch/timer but would have been better to have had a momentary push button instead as it works fast and works best by pulsing the motor for 1 or 2 seconds for several times. There is also NO interlock for the cover so it could be turned on without the cover (Do not do this.). The cover should be easy to turn with only slight resistance once the levers are released on the cover. If there are any leaks, you will get a very fine dust coming out(which can resemble smoke when you remove the cover from something that has just been ground.), and those leaks can be addressed by releasing the lever on the affected side (if there is no obstruction under the gasket seal.), and the nut which engages under the ear of the hopper can be rotated Counter Clockwise slightly as you look down at the nut from the Lever end of the lever lock (In use, thiese nuts can turn some as you twist the cover loose, so periodic checking when in use is a good idea.). While you can take a look inside the hopper to check progress without unplugging the unit; as long as the motor has stopped; you can usually tell just by the sounds the unit is making when running, and often feel as well if you happen to hold by the motor frame/body. The Zuccini was probably one of the more difficult food stuffs to grind, but by gently rocking the machine while it is running for a short continuous time after about a half dozen pulses, it usually ground up the light pieces that otherwise get blown to the hopper wall and do not get drawn into the cutting blades/hammers. Stems from dried herbs would do this as well.The Spelt flour began as spelt berries as you can see with the finished flour product. The volume of the flour is about 1 and 1/2 times higher than the unground berries. One pound of any grain is about the most you would want to do; and does not take much time to get to this coarser flour (Perfect for Artisan Breads and Skones.); which again, was achieved quickly by pulsing the grinder with the pulses just long enough to let the motor reach top speed. And again, the sounds changes when the grain has reached the Flour stage.The sifter IS included, but remove it from the hopper BEFORE you apply power the first time. You will also want to give it a quick cleanup to remove any residue from the factory or from shipping before grinding anything.While it takes a bit of care for cleaning as the main hopper is NOT removable for cleaning, it can be cleaned up with a sink sprayer (Unit cannot be immersed.), a sponge, and the included cleaning brush. Best to wrap a paper towel around the body while cleaning it up to keep water from splashing into the unit's motor.

Does what it’s meant to do. No safety shut off, be aware of your fingers and use your brain and you’ll be fine. Grinds wheat berries perfectly. No smell, there likely would be if you ran the mill longer than recommended. High power motor, about as noisy as you would expect for a mill, but not much louder than a blender or Ninja Creami. Would prefer an extraction tube or some means of extraction, rather than dumping product out of bowl, but otherwise design is rudimentary and works for intended purpose.

This mill works well. My only complaint is that you cannot detach the top to access your milled product. This means that you cannot use your product once it is milled unless you dump it into an extra bowl and doing so is cumbersome and heavy. Also hard to carry it to a sink and try to rinse it out for cleaning. As one other reviewer mentioned, the top circumference of the grinder when open is very sharp, be careful. It is loud but I expected that. All things considered, it is good for the price.

This grinder is perfect for chopping up dried plant material into easy to use small pieces. I use it for preparation of dried lavender flower and stalks to reduce the bulk and increase the amount of material that will fit in a 5000 ml flask for essential oil extraction. The machine works well, grinds fast and easy. Not any louder when working than a food processor. Easy to clean too.

So this is my first grain mill type grinder so not alot to compare to. What I can say is so far it has done a good job with my needs. I've done wheat berries and it made flour quickly. Next I tried a little barley and again it performed well. Coffee is a whiz if I do a whole bag - it's really not work getting dirty for just a little bit. The only thing it seems to fight a little with was corn - which makes sense how hard corn is. It took a little work, but it ground it up as well. Mostly it clean easily and fast. Overall the construction seems good material and very sturdy. The motor sounds good and strong. For my first electric grinder I"m very happy.

The media could not be loaded. Updated to add a video.After my initial review the seller asked me for a photo of the part that cut me, after reminding me the blade is sharp.Yeah, the rim of the lid is sharper than the blades and is actually what cut me.Also, since I had to get it out for the video, I went ahead and tried grinding baked eggshells (for a powder). It was unable to grind it all into a powder. Some of it was great and pure powder, but left some good shards as well. I kept running it in quick bursts in hopes not to overheat it. But I never got it all to a powder consistency. So again, depends on what you're trying to do, the unit works. But 1. It is prone to overheating and you have to work low and slow 2. You can't fully clean the unit (wipe with damp cloth) 3. The LID rim is incredibly sharp and you have to use a brush to get your powder out.Original review: This works well, at least for my first attempt. I made graham cracker (powder!) for a pie shell.I dislike how you're unable to run it for more than a few seconds at a time to avoid overheating it. But I get it.However, it was when I ran my finger along the lid rim to knock the powder off that I realized how incredibly sharp it is.It sliced me wide open. Like, astonishingly sharp. It looks smooth enough but its just a clean cut, unfinished metal rim. I am not thin-skinned and don't cut easily, so it is truly worth mentioning. And a 1 star in hopes someone at least reads the warning.Unfortunately I kept it boxed way too long before using it, so I'm unable to return it.

I got the product for grinding up hazelnut s (aka filberts)s to add to my lunch saladI got the timing just right so that the nuts are both fine as well as chunky great product! It exceeded my expectations!Thank you!

Sturdy for tough jobs. I love the way the lid is held down. Nice of manufacturer to provide a set of spares.
