Champion Juicer- Grain Mill Attachment – Grind Whole Dry Grains

In addition to this mill, I have the Country Living mill manual grinder and a grinder attachment for my KitchenAid pro mixer.Both the other grinders produce finer flour than this one does. However, this is the one I use most often.While I ground all my flour by hand for almost five years with the Country Living mill, I've had enough of that. I still like the C.L. mill: of all the manual mills, I think it is the best.I don't worry about the motor on the champion juicer overheating, like I do with the KitchenAid. I can leave this grinding for quite a while without having the motor get warm to the touch. Although this unit doesn't grind as fast as the KitchenAid attachment, I can still grind more in a sitting with this one, with less worry or fuss.I don't use the bagger system that comes with this. The height of the unit above the counter is good to put a bowl under the grinder, and then pour the flour into whatever I want to store it in. The Country Living mill is too high, so flour dust gets out too much. The KitchenAid mill is probably the best height to minimize escaping flour dust.I won't give up my other two mills, but this one is a real work-horse.

Clean! Easy! Okay the flour is not nearly as fine as my whispermill, nor is it nearly as fast but its super handy. I mill 6-8 cups of the hard white very fine in the whisper mill every other week and they go in the freezer. When its time to bake I mill the half cup of rye, eikhorn or soft red as needed right there with this. its straightforward and really almost no cleanup required (take THAT whispermill). I use a plastic ziplock bag to mill into rather than the provided bag, zipped tight to keep out any dust. When the flour is completely used from the bag it goes over the whole attachment, zipped to the stem and back in the cabinet. Highly recommended, just not as a primary mill for lots and lots of flour or you will be there all day. It is difficult to get the attachment back off so I store it together, and periodically yank the whole thing off for oiling and cleaning.

Prior to ordering the grain mill attachment I used a stone mill. There really is no comparison to the fine flour produced by a stone mill. However, as steel mills go the champion attachment does a good job. I tried running the flour through twice to get a finer result but couldn't really tell a difference. However, my bread turns out just fine with the flour from this attachment. Sifting helps too.

I am very pleased with this grain mill! It is my first, so I don’t have anything to really base my opinion off of- but it does the job well! I have done hard red wheat, soft white wheat, spelt and hard white wheat. It is important to take it off the juicer and oil the shaft on the juicer, it seems to run better that way. I can usually grind 4cups of wheat berries without it overheating. I also just hold a gallon ziploc bag around the bottom where the flour falls out and I have almost no dust when I do it this way.

I have used the grain mill attachment a few times now. I am enjoying grinding my own flour as I use alternative grains. (I am celiac and do not use wheat flour) I have not been able to get as fine of a grind as I get from purchased grains already ground. The flour is still very useable and when the bread is baked you are not able to tell the flour isn't as fine. Also the flour is very warm after it is ground. I don't think this hurts the flour in any way if it is used immediately, but I don't think it is good if it is left to cool and used another day. Some of the good would be gone out of the flour. So over all I am happy with this grain mill. I guess I was hoping for more, but you get what you pay for.

I love that I didn't have to buy another appliance since I already had this great juicer. The mill however, does leave a little to be desired. It's simple and small which I like. Downside is it's very loud, grinds very slow (1 cup/5 min.) and on the most fine setting, the flour still feels like fine cornmeal to me. I make only naturally leavened bread in the covered pot in the oven and this flour is so course, the gluten just can't ever bind and I don't get the open crumb I would like. I do have an additional sifter and if I sift some of the bran out, that helps.Home ground flour does taste so much better. I'll still use it and it makes wonderful flour for crackers, muffins and sweet breads.

Excellent grain mill - I find myself mostly actually using it for coffee, for which the burr plates are excellent. The one thing to bear in mind is that this mill feed is not angled downward, so unless you help out the Champion by having it sit at an angle (a seat is easy enough to make) you will end up with excess unmilled grains/beans in your feeder.And that's not even remotely enough to turn 5 starts into 4. This thing is great.

I bought this to grind up some grains for doing all-grain beer brewing. The mill works as intended, but seems to go slower than a "Barley Mill" that you can buy at a home brew supply store.Just for fun, I decided to try running some brown rice thru it to make brown rice flour. It worked great, but as I tightened the dial down to get the "fine" setting, the dial stripped out (it's only press-fitted) so I couldn't back it off. This was 30 minutes after I had it out of the box. I ended up using JB Weld to cement the dial back on the screw so I could use it again.

We bought this grain mill to grind wheat berries to make whole wheat flour for baking whole wheat bread.We are not happy with the resultant flour at all. It is far too grainy and course - even on the finest grind setting. Our whole wheat bread would always collapse, if it rose much at all in the first place. The flour is just too course and heavy for bread making.We know how to make whole wheat bread. With store bought whole wheat flour, the breads rose and baked just fine. But, this mill cannot grind the grains fine enough for successful bread baking. We baked over a dozen loaves of bread trying to find a formula that worked. In the end, we conclude the problems were that the Grain Master Grain Mill cannot grind flour fine enough for the job.After a few months of total frustration, we bit the bullet and bought a Mock Mill stone grinder made in Germany (but now sold in the USA). Wow, what a world of difference. The whole wheat flour that it pumps out is as fine as anything you can buy commercially. Except, now we have perfectly ground whole wheat flour made at home! Finally, we are getting really nice results from our home ground home made whole wheat breads.In the end, you get what you pay for...

Product performance was excellent.Awesome Product .

I am replacing my 12 year old Grain Master unit. Many bushels of rey and wheat gone through it and she was sort of wearing out.Will buy another one when the time comes.Hert Voigt
