- First pass: 25 to 30 turns = check coarseness of grinding after start, wheat should be very
coarse, with grains only divided into several parts and with some complete
grains.
- Second pass: 2 to 3 turns (2 turns when the material is very dry).
Well-dried wheat can also be milled in one pass at 3 turns, however, you will always obtain
finer flour with 2 passes. Spelt is also easy to process.
Barley
Barley flour is used very rarely.
Grinding Procedure
- First pass: 25 to 30 turns = check coarseness of grinding after start, wheat should be very
coarse, with grains only divided into several parts and with some complete
grains.
- Second pass: 3 turns.
Rye
Rye is one of the most demanding materials for processing. It is very sensitive to quality of
drying. We recommend drying rye thoroughly during the first use to learn what fineness of
grinding is possible. Always grind rye in 2 passes.
Grinding Procedure
- First pass: 25 to 30 turns = check coarseness of grinding after start, rye should be very
coarse, with grains only divided into several parts and with some complete
grains.
- Second pass: 3 turns.
Sifting rye through a suitable sieve will let you achieve the finest flour possible.
Oats
Oats are soft when compared with other cereals. Oats can be milled in one pass and the
results also depends on grain moisture to a large extent. Moreover, finely milled oats are
hard to move through the hopper.
Grinding Procedure
- First pass: 25 to 30 turns = check coarseness of grinding after start, oats should be very
coarse, with grains only divided into several parts and with some complete
grains.
- Second pass: 3 turns = After the first grinding, pour the milled material back to the hopper
slowly so that you can always see the input opening into the grinder at the
bottom of the hopper. Never pack oats down and do not use any tools to do
that, you can only knock on the side of the hopper.
Millet
Millet is easy to process and it is milled in one pass.
Grinding Procedure
- First pass: 3 to 5 turns, check that the flour does not overheat excessively, if so, increase
turns to 5.
Rice
Rice is a very hard crop. It is not possible to achieve fine flour as with cereals. Never mill
rice in one pass. It is suitable for cleaning the stones of the grinder.
