Thanks for the video. Still holding up over the years. I’m going for the komo

Great video. Running the flour through twice. The issue with this is that too much starch packet damage can be caused. To get fine flour I run the grain through once on a coarse setting getting something like kibbled wheat and then a second time on the finest setting. Thanks for the great video.

Most informative video I've seen on the topic. Many thanks!

Thanks! I just used my Nutrimill Harvest for the first time--this really helps.

Excellent explanation answered my questions thanks

thanks! just discovered this kitchen equipment and looks interesting.

Thank you for sharing this excellent review of grain mills! I found this review to be highly educational and informative! Looking forward to more of your reviews this new 2017 year! Subscribing!

Nice review, thank you for sharing, Greetings from Algeria.

The video was very informative thank you

I love KOMO Classic!!!

Great video , Thanks

Could you or have you done a comparison on what is involved in cleaning and maintaining these different mills?

Looking to mill my own flour during 2020 coronavirus pandemic and all the mills are sold out. And flour is hard to find in stores or online rn. Thanks for this video. Very informative.

If flour is hard to come by and the mills are sold out you could use rolled oats. You can grind them in a spice and nut grinder. Idk if it's fine for bread but I use it for my pancakes and it works great.

Im late but looking for a mill. 1st 2, very loud!! I think i like number 4

Great idea I am glad you did the comparison.

You look very healthy!

So if I can’t consume high fibre and high residu or bulk I should just sift it after milling I haven’t bought a mill because I still have questions regarding the fibre content on the grains after milling

That Nutrimill Harvest has alignment issues. Part of the stones are touching, but they aren't planar to each other.

My question is say if you using Millet or other grains. Do you put the grain and hull all in at one time?

comparing between nutrimill plus and komo, which one is louder?

Thanks for the video. Would you have any experience with the Kitchen Aid all metal mill? I'm looking at that or the Mockmill right now though I do like the stone grinding of the Mock. Curious of one creates a finer/better flour over the other. Thank you!

Can you recommend any of these grain mill which can be used for grinding spices?

@artyom108

Жыл бұрын

They all can, but not anything w a pot of fat, like say flax. It will clog the stone. But, coriander, cumin, etc are all fine. My only issue might be that there could be an aftertaste from flour made later, so if you’re making something sweet and delicate, maybe have two mills. On another note, I’ve noticed many pro videos show chefs grinding spices in a small coffee grinder. I’ve been doing this for a few months and I love it. It allows the species to be extremely fresh. Sometimes I’ll load it up w a variety of seeds specially blended for the dish I’m making. You can also make coarse grinds of black pepper, or coriander easily this way. I recommend that over grinding large quantities beforehand in a mill

I don’t think you can put any wet material through any of these mills without gaming up the stones.

Nutrimill Harvest is a lousy American made imitation of the KoMo. It does not mill as fine as it advertises and heats up the grains over 130F, creating condensation, and causes flour to stick and accumulate on the rubber that encases the corundum stones. Just to let everyone know, DO NOT purchase the Nutrimill Harvest. I purchased it from an online retailer, Extreme Wellness, and they have a lousy return policy that does not believe in customer satisfaction.

Virmtamix heats thw flour

@artyom108

Жыл бұрын

As amply stated and researched here and elsewhere, a bit of heating is utterly a non issue. Unless the grain gets to 130 deg F, which it never will, there is no loss of nutrients. My main issue w Vitamix is consistently. The flour is extremely fine to moderately coarse. In order to mill long enough to not have coarse particles, you have to have lots of very powdery particles produced. It’s just not very even and efficient

I am interested in why double milling would produce something finer than single milling. Once the grain passes between the stones, if the stones don't get any closer, then what actually is the mechanism that reduces the flour further? Do grains bind together in way that they can only get through again by being ground into each other and therefore finer? I am simply curious, as I am convinced from your video that fine on all of these is more than fine enough to make bread with, and bread is my main purpose. FWIW, I was cheap and simply went with the Kitchen Aid mill attachment, and their finest is not so fine. I have adapted to its coarseness, but I have put that flour through a couple of times, and it didn't seem to me like it was getting any finer. Again, my argument, if the plates don't get any closer, then how is the flour suppose to be ground any finer. Anyway, I regret not getting at least the mock mill when I was in the market for a mill. Cheers!!

Yes there is no need to double mill in order to make bread, but my experience with the mills I've used is that the flour does get finer with double milling. Could be useful for some things. A large stone mill mills finer than a small stone mill with the stones at the same gap. So maybe there's a relationship between the time and distance the flour traverses on the stones and the degree of fineness.

@@breadtopia, I never saw this reply 3 years ago :(. I may have to give this a go, as I did invest in a Mock counter top mill, which does produce much finer grind than I was getting before, however I have never been able to get the same window pane with my flour that I get using say, KA store bought flours. I commented on a local baker's page and his experience was the same. I will give the double mill a go next time to see how that affects my results. As I am cleaning the globes on my light fixture of flour dust, I see the benefit of the closed system. :)

What's the germ in flower?

@breadtopia

4 жыл бұрын

The germ is the part of a wheat berry that grows into a plant. Bran is the outer layer of the berry, and endosperm is the energy for the germ. Germ and bran are removed in refined flour. This results in less fiber, reduced vitamin and mineral levels, and about 25% less protein than whole grain flour.
