Grain mill Tina

In this compact little mill you grind fresh flour again and again. With a Ø 9 cm millstone, you can grind between four and six kilograms of fine meal in an hour. Although this grain mill is rather small, it manages everything from fine flour to coarse meal to hard food corn. The housing is made of smoothly ground alder wood, this was treated with a little linseed oil and can thus also be wiped with a damp cloth without the wood suffering.

Grain mill Tina - Application

Place your grain mill on a level surface and plug it in. 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 and fill in your desired grain. Put up to 600 g of grain at a time into the hopper. This can be a wide variety of grains, this grain mill is particularly powerful for its size and grinds not only wheat, spelt and rye, but also harder grains such as buckwheat or even chickpeas and corn. Caution is advised for grains or seeds that may leak oil, as this 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 a 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.

Then, when the grain is finished grinding and you do not want any more flour, the mill is turned off and the flour is processed or stored. With the screw on the side of the mill, the upper part can be detached. This gives you a good view into the grinding chamber and the two grinding stones. Grain residues are largely removed by the grinding process itself, at the end you can easily brush out the chamber with a large brush. 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.
