Grain Mills-My Favorite Hand Mill



The "Back to Basics" Hand Mill

This hand mill is great! It currently sells on the Internet (just "google" it..many sites sells this mill.)for 65 dollars to 75 dollars in price. We have one that my husband purchased at American Way Thrift Store years ago for $3.99. It grinds as fine as my electric K-Tec. Once I made my own wheaties by hand grinding the wheat with this grinder...then adding water and a dash of salt to the fine flour..then pouring this "slurry" onto a greased cookie sheet. After it bakes, you end up with a thin crispy brown sheet that you, with your hands, crumble up into "flakes" into your bowl. Then add milk and eat with a spoon.
