[Sca-cooks] Grain mills?

[kingstaste at mindspring.com]

I have seen this one demonstrated and eaten baked goods produced from it,
and I was fairly impressed.  These folks are Christian HomeSchoolers, and I
sat through a lecture on nutrition by Mrs. Becker that was quite amazing -
"the gospel on a cellular level".  (She has a degree in food science, and
did the entire lecture with a bible in her hand - but her science was very
good - I even learned a thing or two).

Subject: [Sca-cooks] Grain mills?


I am about to ascend to the next level of crunchiness.  I want to start
milling my own grain.  So, I'm scoping out the grain mills on
www.lehmans.com.  They're... pricey.  I went to eBay, and found mills at
a variety of prices, all far less expensive than at Lehmans.  But, I
have no idea how to evaluate what I'm looking at.  Can anybody comment
on the different brands?  Hand turned vs. electric?  Has anybody used
the KitchenAid grain mill attachment?  Is it adjustable for different
degrees of fineness?

Thank you!
Magdalena

you leave empty all day in order to afford to live in it. -Ellen Goodman
