Grain Mill & Flake Press Paula

Grain Mill & Flake Press Paula

In this combination mill you grind fresh flour and press delicious flakes over and over again. With a Ø 9 cm millstone, you can grind about six kilograms of the finest flour or many times that amount of meal in one hour. Despite its compact design, it can handle everything from fine flour to coarse meal to hard food corn. The housing is made of smoothly ground Swiss stone pine, which smells wonderful and is considered to be mite-repellent. The flake press has its own small motor and can thus be switched on at the same time as the mill. Thus, in addition to your flour, you also create up to four kilograms of flakes in the hour.

Grain Mill & Flake Press Paula - Application

Place your grain mill on a level surface. Now you can adjust how fine or coarse you would like to grind by turning the grinding part. For a very coarse grist, for example in combination with some seeds for the crust of a bread, set a very high number using the arrow and the scale. If you would rather make a fine wholemeal flour for a cake, the arrow should point to zero.

Now you can remove the lid, take out the flour bowl and pour in your desired grain. Put up to 1000 g of grain at a time into the hopper. This can be a wide variety of grains, this grain mill is very powerful and grinds not only wheat, spelt and rye, but also harder grains such as buckwheat or even chickpeas and corn. For grains or seeds that can leak oil, be careful because it can gum up and clog the machine. If you still want to grind oats, barley or seeds and nuts, they should only be added in small amounts to another grain and ground that way. In this way, you also create a mixed flour at the same time, which is well suited for baking.

Once the hopper is filled, you are ready to start. Place the bowl under the tube and switch on the mill. The grain disappears into the mill and your flour or meal comes out the front. If the degree of fineness is not quite right, you can simply adjust it a little, and you can observe the change right away in the bowl.

On the left side of the machine you can fill up to 120 g of grain, which is then immediately pressed into flakes. This is done by a separate motor, so you can also immediately press flakes during grinding. For this purpose, you can also easily use oily grains such as oats or barley, but hard grains such as corn or buckwheat are not suitable.

Then, when the flakes are pressed and the grain is ready to be ground, the mill is switched off and the products are put aside. By turning the upper part can be detached. This gives you a good view into the grinding chamber and the two grinding stones. In this state, the machine can not start due to a child safety lock. Grain residues are largely removed by the grinding process itself, at the end you can easily brush out the chamber with a large brush. In the case of the flake press, the individual parts can be easily disassembled. The exterior of the machine can be briefly wiped with a damp cloth, a more intensive cleaning or even rinsing under water should be refrained from, as this would damage the wood as well as the machine.
