Ok for coarse grinding

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good enough for getting gritty grains, not fine such as required for fine flour required for breads and cakes. It does get finer if your rerun the coarse floor.
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.
I have been using Kitchen products for ages. Need a grain mii now. i saw this add. i have a question, from grinding will the finished product spread all over the place? I definitely need one .
This does the job. Overall, I’m very happy with this attachment, however,you need to check the retaining nut’s tightness after turning it on. I’ve had the nut work loose twice, and the mill spin off if I don’t check the nut right after I turn it on.
Beautiful, solid, does the job BUT at great cost..

I bought this attachment a month ago for my Pro600 and loved having it to grind my rye berries. It’s beautiful, solid and does the job... I ground 6cups of berries once a week and the attachment performed as expected... until the attachment gears in my mixer stripped out terribly. My mixer is my kitchen “baby” and I’ve never had a single issue with it before so this happening, all but broke my heart. I followed the instructions in the booklet about not running it too long and grinding in bulk... so I was very upset that this happened. I’ve never had an issue with any of the other attachments I have and now I have to pay to get my mixer fixed. I wanted to love it... but had I known it would hurt my mixer so easily, I would not have made this purchase.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought grain mill attachment to mill my own flour, trying to find a bag of flour these days it almost impossible lol. Mill works great a little loud at full speed with the kitchen aid
I have a professional Kitchen Aid mixer. I had to buy this porwerful machine because I make whole wheat bread and the Atisan model mixer could not handle the load. I have used the awesine mixer for over a decade and the grain grinder for about 5-6 years. I suspect the burrs of the grain grinder are shedding tiny tiny pieces of metal into the flour and just this morning I cleaned the burrs with a tooth pick and noticed tiny nicks on the burrs. Has anyone else seen this and is there any solution suggestions?
I would recommend this to a friend!
