Kitchen Mill - Electric Grain Mill - High Speed Wheat, Corn, Grain Grinder, Flour Mill - Assembled in the USA - Stainless Steel Milling Chamber

Have had this mill for 11 years now. It came highly recommended by friend and has not disappointed! Has a dial setting to adjust fine or more course grind. Contrary to reviews about flour blowing , you must follow the directions! Use the filter over the air vent and properly attach the grain bin that catches the flour. Once the once the container begins to be mostly full of ground flour you need to stop and empty it. If you continue grinding, the flour has no where to go and will blow out. I can grind about 2-3 pounds of berries before I stop to empty the container. It does not leave flour all over my kitchen. I typically grind about 7.5 pounds of wheat berries at a time with 1-2 breaks to empty the container depending on how fine I grind the flour. The only negative is that it is loud unless they have adjusted for that since I bought mine in 2014. I wear hearing protection same as when I shoot. It is worth it and a big deal. The blendtec is fast and efficient. It is easy to use and understand. I have not had any issues with it all these years. It is obviously high quality and highly durable. I would definitely buy it again!

This mill can't be beat for this price. I am really glad we got this one. The pros: This mill does grind a variety of flours, is inexpensive and simple. Easy cleaning, easy storage are other + The con - it only produces pretty fine milled flour, real coarse grinding is not possible. It can also happen that a kernel jumps out of the top while grinding but it is rare and no big deal. So far I ground oats, rye and quinoa. All three grind nicely into a very nice fine flour (on the "coarsest" setting, I don't even want to try the fine setting....) The grinding goes fast and there is some noise to it - while full it sounds like a coffee grinder and when it empties it sounds like a jet engine. Actually quite cool :-) For our two people household this grinder is more than enough. The bread I made from the freshly ground flour was really awesome. Having the flour so fine also has advantages for the quality of the baked good.

Bakers and baker wannabes can produce freshly ground flour that stores in the fridge and freezer. It beats the taste of even your favorite store-bought flour hands down. I started keeping wheat as part of my emergency food storage a few years ago. But instead of keeping it all stored, I wanted to make sure I knew how to use it, so I've been practicing making my own bread from scratch. I have a hand mill but knew that once I started making my own bread and more from my wheat stores that I'd want to make it part of my regular cooking schedule. The hand mill is great to have on hand but electric is the way to go if you want to get the job done quickly. You don't have to be a prepper to appreciate the value of an electric grain mill. Anyone who wants to provide a healthier alternative to store-brought breads for their family but needs to stay within a budget will love the Blendtec Mill. Pros There are several mills to choose from, most of which are honestly much more than I can afford. Blendtec solved that problem for me. It's been the perfect mid-range, cost-effective mill for my needs and I couldn't be happier. I paid close to $180 for this mill when the average is over $200 and even upwards of $400 for other grain mills, though admittedly the prices seem to have fallen on the others since I purchased this one. I've used this for hard red and white wheat and soft white wheat. There are a range of settings for a more coarse flour to a pastry flour setting. I've used them all with success in making hearty and lighter wheat bread and waffles. I'm having fun experimenting with my whole wheat recipe books. This mill is easy to operate and clean. It also comes with an extra filter. It's very fast. I can get 2-4 cups of flour in under 2 minutes. Cons The biggest con is the noise. This is an understandable issue and one where I have to admit that you're probably getting what you pay for as there are quieter mills on the market that come with a higher price tag. Also, you can't do nut butters with this mill. I have noticed that some flour escapes during milling. It's not a lot and not too big of a deal to clean up but it is an extra step. I give this product a 4-star rating out of 5, only knocking one off because of the noise and flour escape.

This makes short work of large amounts of wheat berries. In the 70's I ground my own grain using a hand mill. It was arduous and slow. This grinds wheat berries into a fine flour almost as fast as I can pour. Initially I failed to secure the clamps tightly and generated a lot of flour dust, but I should have carefully read the instructions. I just made my first batch of bread starting with hard red wheat berries. My dough was fine textured and my French loaves were excellent. Using freshly ground flour makes a difference, and I know the source of my wheat.

For 25 years, I had a virtually identical mill to this (originally manufactured by K-Tec at that time). It was a work horse -- loud, but otherwise great. Simple to use, easy to clean, very fast at grinding. Its only down-sides were that it was loud, and one latch developed a crack. I kept expecting the crack to get bigger and break off -- but it never did! Finally I managed to break the thing myself by grinding corn that wasn't quite dry enough -- it gummed up the gears, and it was unrepairable. I hoped that the newer Blentec version would be as good, but after ordering and returning FIVE units (three via Amazon, two directly from Blentec), I keep running into the same problems, so I am done trying it. The problems with every unit I got were: 1) The side latches. I'd clip one side down, and then I couldn't get the other one to latch, or it would barely latch and then pop up during grinding. 2) The hopper. In my old one, the grain fed itself down into the tube, right down to the last wheat (or rye, etc.) berry. I never had to nudge it along. With these new units, I have to keep pushing the grain down almost INTO the hole (yikes), or it just stops flowing. 3) Expelled grains. It kept spitting out wheat berries, so I ended up with all these grains on the counter and the floor. If I had kept it, I would have had to cover it with a dishtowel or something. Let me add that the reason I kept ordering and returning units was that the packaging was so lousy that at first I kept thinking the mills didn't work properly because they were damaged in transit. Amazon would send them to me rolling around in big boxes three times their size with NO packing material. Blentec was the opposite problem: they shipped it in a box that just exactly fit the unit, with no room for any packing material around it. The only thing padding it was the cardboard of the box itself. In conclusion: I do NOT recommend this unit. Sadly, I have to give up on Blentec. And in researching to find a different brand of mill, I will go somewhere like Pleasant Hill Grain -- which ships things way more carefully.

Works great perfect grind perfect. Easy to use.

I chose this based on research both on Amazon and elsewhere on line. Reviews here suggested it was very loud, so I expected that it would make a lot of noise - I can only assume the reviewers suggesting extreme noise from it have less experience with mills, and other machinery that I do - it is loud, but no extremely so - somewhat less than a workshop dust extractor, a commercial wet vac, or indeed an industrial router, so it is bearable. The course setting it too fine for rough grits, fortunately I have a hand mill that is perfect for that, but this one grinds flour for bread perfectly, at the mid point. We do not use flour for anything other than bread, so do not need the finer flour this mill is capable of grinding. Clean up is easy, a pastry brush does the job perfectly, and in operation it makes no mess. Update - it has started to blow flour everywhere, the motor is full of flour as is the room. Started out well, failed to impress within a month. We will not be using this mill in the house again, which makes it pointless to have.

If you have purchased the wheat berry grain mill that attahes to your mixer and we're not happy with the flour, try this one. Yes, it is noisy, hearing protection advisable, but this mill grinds wheat berries into flour just like the big box stores. First read the instructions, Very easy to assemble. Packaged well, no issues at this time.

I love this mill. When it looks like it's on it's way out, I get another one. It fits nicely in my pantry and does a good job grinding my wheat. As for durability, it's probably about average. Hard to say though since I bake and cook almost exclusively with fresh ground wheat.

This mill does a great job but I'm not sure just how well the clear plastic bottom will stand up. It seems like it would be easy to crack it. The instruction booklet doesn't have a lot of info in it and then there is the price. These grain mills are way over priced for the quality of the product. I 'm sure if there was more competition, the price would come waaaaaay down in a hurry. That being said, I am glad that I have it and will just have to hope that it will stand the test of time.

This machine does a superb job of grinding grain. The only draw-back is that I think you should wear ear protection when using it as it is so loud...like a jet taking off! Does a great job and we just put on ear phones to help block the noise. Nice to be able to see the ground grain (flour) in the clear bin too. I'd recommend this to anyone who bakes their own bread.

I love this wheat grinder! It grinds the wheat quickly and to whatever consistency you like. I have never been very successful at making homemade whole wheat bread but now it turns out so great!

Awesome product; just as described. Quick delivery, good service. I have just made some yellow pea flour and was very happy with the final product. I made some quick bread with the pea flour and was very happy with the baking result. I believe that this machine will give many years of good service.
