My husband surprised me with a Nutrimil Harvest 2ish years ago and I couldn’t be happier with it. I use it at a minimum of twice per week and it mills the best flours.
A few months ago , I purchased a Victoria manuel ....mill , and although I have not used it for wheat , i have used it for coffee beans and it dod not groind it as fine as i had hoped .
That’s a lot of choices!, thank you for taking the time to review those. I like the Model 35, it’s made in Montana, USA. It’s simple, requires no electricity, and can be clamped (sold separately C clamp) to a bench or table.
Looking for a pretty and high quality mill, i can also recommend two other German brands. Hawos and Komo. Their Quality is absolutely like Mockmill. Wolfgang Mock was even part of these both brands in earlier years.
I really enjoyed watching this and I appreciate the information I found it very interesting. I would love to have a Mockmill 200. I am almost mid 70’s and love to bake but doubt I use it enough. If I had seen this 3 years ago i probably would have ordered one immediately.
I have the last one you demonstrated but don’t know if it is a 100 or 200. I really like it and have only been milling my grains for less than a year. The bread is incredible using Bread Beckers recipe.
Wonder mill is another good one. Mine has lasted over a decade ground literally tons of wheat and never gave me a problem. Is not a stone grinder, though and can not grind course meal/grits etc, only course to uktra fine flour.
I've used the Komo Fidibus Classic somewhere between 15 and 20 years. I love it for it's beauty and simplicity. I've never had a single problem with it. It is made or designed by the maker of Mockmill.
Thank you for reviewing all of the different mills! I love making bread for my family. I just researched the flour I use is artificially enriched with synthetic vitamins! I would love to start milling my own grain. I have a few questions for you, if you have the time to answer. Could you please tell me, do you make sourdough with your milled flour? If so, what kind of grain do you use? Also, do you have a hand mill in case of emergencies?
I was told about your sight from a friend who has gotten into milling her bread now. It brought back a memory when you said a out daves bread being in the fridge for over two months. I had a room mate who had his bread in the pantry for over THREE months and did not get moldy. That just just gross to know that the bread didnt break down. Yes it makes you wonder what is in that bread
Seriously!!! I had a loaf of "keto" bread in the fridge for over 3 months and it didn't mold. I know the "food" manufacturers benefit from that, but I will never *ever* buy bread (or flour) from a commercial grocer again.
I got the grain mill attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer for Christmas. I’m hoping it performs well enough for me to experiment with milling wheat. It was the economical way to test it out without buying a separate machine
I've had the KoMo Fidibus 21 for about 20 years. Back then it was real Birchwood and beautiful dovetails. I love my grinder...not sure if they're made to the same standard now. Mine is German made, the new ones are made in Austria.
Just an FYI I would have very much liked to have known about: the Blendtec Electric Grain Mill (cost as of Dec. 2023 about $269): I did a LOT of research on electric mills before choosing the one I chose -- but strangely enough I learned about another mill, the BLENDTEC ELECTRIC MILL, only AFTER I purchased (but did not yet have) my new mill -- which is a Wondermill I managed to get for $269. To be honest, had I known about the Blendtec option I might have gotten it -- (formerly Ktec), now Blendtec electric grain mill. Although a NO-GO for people who can't handle a really loud machine. It MAY be the loudest of all the grain mills! For the short periods of time it takes to grind the grains that really is not a big concern for me but probably would be for my housemate. There are three reasons I MIGHT have chosen the Blendtec electric mill: (1) it is pretty small and even smaller for storage; (2) although it makes only ONE grind of flour, it makes a finer grind than any of the other mills from what I can tell from a comparison review by a woman who has used her Blendtec mill pretty regularly for 17 years; and (3) the reason I am not concerned about getting an electric mill that can do coarser grounds (for things like cream of wheat, polenta or grits) is because I know I can EASILY do the coarser grains with my 24-year-old Blendtec blender -- which I have until now used for 2 YEARS for home-milling flour for my breads, etc. The only concern is that apparently the rubber ring/seal around the top of the Blendtec electric grain mill container can break or whatnot. Then again, I could grind those beans, etc. in my Blendtec blender -- since I already have one. All that said, there is no real buyer regret here. I got the Wondermill, which can we stored with the flour canister sitting atop the mill portion. It is NOT very wide and fits very easily atop one of my 5-gal. food buckets in the kitchen, where I have all the room in the world ABOVE the buckets. No real buy remorse here, but I do find the ability of the Blendtec Electric Grain Mill to be something really special in that it makes the flour SO fine. P.S. According to the folks that make the Wondermill you CAN now turn it off while grinding if you need to -- and then turn it back on and continue grinding. They just have not changed it in their manual yet where it says not to ever do that.
I have the manual Wonder Mill Jr. It's a great mill and I can mill even if the grid is down, but I'm looking for an electric model for convenience. Even though I get a great arm workout with my manual mill I'm looking at the Harvest mill to speed things up.
This is very useful and informative. Love that you so directly connect the nutritional value in milling grain with Jesus Christ, the Staff of LIfe; and how industrial milling has horribly adulterated this Godly staple. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie!😃
Thank you so much for this excellent video. I chose the MM100 due to financial reasons (being a good steward with my fixed income). The Lino is SO beautiful, but as you so gently put it - there are other things we must also purchase in this society. God bless you and your ministry richly!
A great video thank you. I was looking at getting a mock mill until I learned the stones are synthetic material n a lot of these home mills. Are you concerned about the aluminum oxide from these synthetic grinding wheels? I worry about the corundum breaking down and releasing aluminum oxide into my flour. Have you researched this?
Here is some info on corundum stones from Mockmill Germany: The chemical name of corundum is aluminum oxide (Al²O³). Alumina is also a variant of alumina and has been used for thousands of years for bowls etc. This compound, aluminum with oxygen is called aluminum oxide. The alumina is used for a variety of products due to high hardness and temperature resistance, i.e. as an abrasive material and also for crucibles and watch glasses. Many artificial hip joints are made of corundum because of its good properties and because it's safe for humans. Alumina is actually a proven remedy for things like heartburn; It helps to balance the stomach acid. For Mockmills, the corundum is bound in the ceramic mass. This results in a corundum ceramic milling stone that is very hard, durable and relatively insensitive. This so-called corundum stone is a highly condensed and very hot fired "artificial stone", which has proven itself since 1985 and is used in almost all stone mills. Corundum, and the ceramic base, have been carefully tested and found to be completely harmless to human health. Because of corundum's hardness (Mohr Scale 9), the stones are unlikely to put minerals into the flour or air. The initial cleaning that the customer is directed to do will eliminate 99% of residue. A set of Mockmill stones typically lasts 4 - 6 years of regular milling.
I had the same experience with store bought sourdough bread. I forgot I put it in my pantry and found it over a month later and there was no mold and it was still soft…..I was shocked and threw it away…what was in it to preserve it for so long😮
The link to the Mockmill Lino 100 says to see the video for the special coupon...I didn't see one in the video for the mill. Where do I find one? Thank you!
Thanks for the information. I have a Wonder Mill and I love it. Not only does it grind well, it contains it…no dust cloud. It’s the only one I’ve ever tried. Would love to know how it compares to these if anyone knows.
There are plenty of mills available that you can turn by hand/require ZERO electricity. There are models that can be bolted to a work surface, clamped, and or even connected to a bicycle.
Thank you so much for this information! I have been looking to buy a mill, but wanted more information, and didn’t know which one I would like best, so this video is very helpful! Looking at your website for my chosen model, it mentions getting a coupon code from the video. Where can I find a coupon code for the Mockmill 200 and the flaker? Thank you in advance!!
Hi! What do you think about the corondrum stones, since they are made with aluminum oxide… I am so conflicted if to keep my Komo I just got for my birthday, as I just learned what the stone was made out of… I have been praying about it, and I can’t find info on it, so maybe you have an opinion? And thank you for sharing the gospel!

I have the country living grain mill and it has worked great for years. Just added the Nutrimill Harvest because I’m doing so much more milling now and need to save my arm. So far so good.
I have been milling my own grains for a long time………my husband’s IBS is completely cured. I use prairie gold, kamut, spelt and einkorn. Einkorn is amazing. I had a slice of store bought bread recently and got sick. We just can’t eat it anymore. I bake daily and started a ministry called “Mary’s Bread” where I make bread for people - they give me a donation with a few dollars for ingredient and I give the $ to the Food Pantry. I usually spend the $ for the Food Pantry in our parish. They give me a list and my sister and I go shopping!! p.s. I have the nutri-mill and I am happy with it, but would love to upgrade to one that mills spices etc.
Wonderful video. I was looking in the description for the promo codes and I did not see any for the Mockmill Lino. Did I not look in the right place? Also what is the return policy if I buy thru you? Thanks
This is the link to the mockmill lino. The details on shipping, returns, and terms and conditions are on this page, too. Thanks designedhealthyliving.com/inc/sdetail/6795/7523
I am considering the Mockmill 200, I didn't however see a coupon code as referenced on your store site. At what point in the video review did I miss it?
@@shelleyquandt8243 can you please give some suggestions on good hand mills as I have just started to buy wheat grains but yet to purchase a mill. As I'm older I am looking for something that is easy to use
A good hand mill will cost as much as an electric mill, and sometimes more! The NutriMill Classic is the cheapest of the electric mills demoed here. I have one and it works great for all my needs.
