Our hand grain mill functions through the use of three special rollers which turn at differentiated speeds. These rollers are operated by the handle. The distance between the rollers can be regulated by use of the regulating knob which has 3 positions: Position 1 - to obtain flour, Position 2 & 3 - to obtain cereal flakes.
Flour
To obtain flour, the three rollers of the hand grain mill work contemporaneously. The first pair (Rollers 1 and 2) breaks the grain, while the second pair (Rollers 2 and 3), which has a different speed, produces the flour. By operating Position 1 on the regulating knob, you can obtain every type of whole grain flour for bread, pasta, desserts, biscuits, etc. If you desire to obtain a finer flour, pass the flour through the rollers a few more times.
Flakes
With the regulating knob in these positions, roller 3 does not operate. Only rollers 1 and 2 operate at this setting, and they have the function of crushing the grains in order to obtain cereal flakes of the thickness desired.
Better Nutrition
Freshly flaked and ground grains have more of the original vitamins, minerals and oils than those bought in the store. Fresh milled means better taste and health benefits for your body. Whole grains are more nutritious than refined grains. Natural kernels of whole wheat, for example, contain 16 minerals, 10 essential vitamins, and at least 4 other vitamin factors generally found in bran and wheat germ. White flour, however, is refined from the endosperm and consists of mostly starch and a small amount of protein. Plus whole grains contain natural fiber. A great way to help you stay slim and avoid many diseases caused by fiber deficiency.
Save Money
You can save money by milling your own flour and baking your own breads. Buying grain in bulk can add to your savings. In this way, the Hand Grain Mill will easily pay for itself.
