Does not work as a Flour Mill
on October 3, 2022
Posted by: Megan F
Does not work well if you need to mill flour. It took ~45 minutes to mill 120 grams of flour and the machine would overheat. Would not recommend.

It takes a little longer when on the finest grind setting when I did winter wheat but that is understandable. Gets a little warm from the friction but the flour turned out great. The manual said that it would be a little more coarse than conventional flour because they sift out the berries but I could even tell when I compared the two.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dependable mill

Verified Purchase:No
My brother in law gave me this mill many years ago. We bake all of our breads and so we bought some hard red winter wheat and voila, flour. The mill is easy to clean and is as dependable as the rain here in NW Oregon. We grind flour and make all our baked goods about once a week and have been doing so for about 5 years. It connects to the Kitchenaid in a few seconds and is always ready to mill flour. I run it on 7 and by the time I have all the rest of the bread ingredients out and measured, the flour is done.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Broke my mixer
on August 10, 2023

from Fayetteville, AR
I grind wheat for 2 loaves of bread, and unfortunately, using this attachment broke my kitchen aid stand mixer. It melted the worm gear. We replaced the worm gear and it melted again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Unhappy
on May 26, 2021
Posted by: Debra G
from Tennessee
I don't really know if it is this grain mill or the Tilt-up mixer that is the problem. However, I would strongly suggest that you NOT buy this attachment for this mixer. Either the mixer is not powerful enough to perform the duty or the design of the mill is not exact. In either case, I am only able to mill two cups of grain and then let the mixer rest for at least 20 minutes because the mixer and the mill have over heated to the point that the mill is hot to the touch and the mixer is far more warmer than it should be. I takes me about an hour to mill 4 cups of grain, safely. KitchenAid states that you can mill 10 cups of grain safely. Not true. Because of this problem, I am sure the longevity of the motor of the mixer is greatly affected. I will be returning the mill I have only had a couple of months, for a refund. I will be purchasing an electric mill, since I make all my own bread from fresh milled flour. The KitchenAid I once knew and loved doesn't exist anymore.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this over 6 months ago and have been extremely pleased. The machine is easy to operate. My family has enjoyed all of the freshly made breads, pancakes, waffles, pies, and cakes that I have made grinding grain with this machine. The dial gives ample options for the fineness of the grain from very fine to coarse. Clean-up takes just a little time and effort, but you don't have to wash it each time, so it's no problem whatsoever. The process itself is loud, but that is to be expected. It is more quiet than the coffee grinders my parents' use to use. The flavors from freshly ground grain have been superior.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Where has this been all my life
on January 21, 2023
Posted by: Coffee to be happy with

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This metal grain mill is amazing. I grind flour in a very short time and make really fresh bread. Such a difference! Good quality product attaches easily to my stand mixers. If you bake you need this. Wheat berries are not hard to find and have extended shelf life.
I would recommend this to a friend!

First time to mill wheat.
on January 6, 2023
Posted by: Z-Ski

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Even though I'm an engineer, I read the instructions. Instructions could be better. First, the unit comes assembled, so it must be disassembled to remove the oil from the burrs. One screw was hand tight, the second was so tight it took a large screwdriver to remove. The supplied tool is not designed to remove a tight screw. How to wash without immersing ???? Obviously the body should be immersible, the movable burr is pinned to the shaft and the pin has to be driven out to get it apart, not easy and if not taken apart water remains in the gaps. As to grinding, pretty straight forward. The discharge chute is high enough from the work surface that the catch bowl needs set on something and is easy to knock over, here is why. When the grain feed hopper is just about empty and the mixer at speed 10, I expected to run all the grain out like a meat grinder. Before all the grain is through the screw, the mixer begins to shake violently, it did this every time, Slowing the speed helped but bottom line, if you want every seed out of the mill, the screw has to be removed. It works, I expected a finer grind but don't have a comparison with other mills and stand alone mills are much more expensive. I was happy with how my first couple of loaves turned out. I'll keep the mill and play with it but frankly I expect Kitchen Aid products to be better thought out. I would recommend for the small quantity baker like me, but with some reservations.
I would recommend this to a friend!
