Unboxing, first use, and first loaf of bread from flour ground using this No. 116 steel burr mill purchased from Grainmaker. I hope others who may be considering purchasing a mill for grinding their own flour find this useful and informative!

Congrats on your 116! I bought my 99 back in 2020, and my only regret is not having bought it years earlier. I _love_ milling my own flour from organic grains. And once I discovered I could blend differing grains together, the sky is the limit! Once I move to my rural property later this year, I'm thinking one of my "welcome wagon" gifts I'll buy for myself is a motorized 116, along with the 275 mill. My 99 has milled everything I threw at it, except for rocks! ;-) I'll never return to store-bought baked goods again.

I am contemplating between model 99 and 116. May I ask why you decided to go with 116? Thanks.

Can the handle be shortened, if you wanted to grind something coarser for instance, and wanted to cut down on the time?

@CrestonMoore Жыл бұрын

Just looking at the design, I'm not sure it would be possible without modification. I can't say I'd recommend it if it was possible, though. The reduction in leverage wouldn't be ideal, and if the speed was increased to rapidly grind grain, it would make a lot of dust airborne.

Why you go with 116 instead of 99? Thanks, informative video.

@CrestonMoore Жыл бұрын

I chose the 116 for the extra capacity of milling for other families in addition to my own.

You could repurpose an old bicycle and that way you wouldn't have to use your hand you could sit there in pedal

That’s true! Grainmaker does offer a kit to allow powering via bicycle!

Yeah, I saw their price and get the same shock BUT I asked myself "what is price of my health?", then the price doesn't look so bad😊

Yeah it doesn't take but a few doctor visits to pay for one! Taking control of what we eat and knowing where our food comes from could be a great step to improving long-term health.
