would this work for milling grains into wheat as well? looking to buy one that will work for hops for making beer but also grains for making breads, c

As far milling grain it works good for beer and for wheat im not sure get in contact with millars. Plus you don't want to grind up hops when putting in beer

Works fine for barley and corn for brewing. Not designed for making flour, cannot gring grains only crush.

I honestly wouldn't recommend trying something like this because the thing was designed as a grain mill and the clean up would be a royal pain. It *might* work once or twice but after that, seeing as it is a grinding *stone*, it is highly unlikely the mill would be good for anything after that.

no i dont think it will, i grind barley grains for beer. they are a lot bigger than poppy seeds. there is a youtube video where a guy has trouble grinding wheat.

if you mean kits like Mr Beer kits, where you "just add water", then no, it does not work with those. this is for when you want to go buy hops, yeast, grain, and malt extract from brewing supply stores and follow a recipe to make actual beer. I bought this for my husband for Christmas, and it has exploded into a hobby we both enjoy. We have made several types of beers, have a recipe for a killer hard carmel apple cider, and have a couple meads aging. no kits, but still easy to start as a new hobby. I definitely recommend the book "the complete guide to home brewing" to go along with this if you mean kits like Mr Beer kits, where you "just add water", then no, it does not work with those. this is for when you want to go buy hops, yeast, grain, and malt extract from brewing supply stores and follow a recipe to make actual beer.

Mixing the rye flour with general purpose wheat flour ~1:1 and "5-stars" yeasts worked well for me. I don't think any bread machine can make a good bread from 100% rye flour.

I grind wheat berries in mine all the time. It works well. Just don't expect much at a time. I get two cups of flour in about fifteen minutes then I let the grinder cool. It's enough for some delicious wheat bread.

It comes dry, mostly milled. Some husk remains but just a few that you can sort through. I cook it in a rice pot for my dog's food (beef, barley, peas, fish oil, bone meal & multivitamin). I believe it'll work for brewing.

That's a good question. Unfortunately, I know nothing about brewing beer so I am unable to give you an answer. Sorry

NO. This is a primary grown yeast is not used to make bread. This is a nutritional flavoring. Whereas a Brewery by-product is what makes up a Brewer's Yeast.

I would not try it as it is for grains and will not work on chunks or pieces. It would probably ruin the micronizing blades. Use a food processor for that or a blender. That should make better flour.

Hi Taryn, I'm sorry to say I can't help you here, I used the motor to turn a grain mill using a 11/2 inch pully on the motor and a 14" pully on the mill to reduce the RPMs from 1,725 to 90, I use it to grind grain to make beer. It worked just fine.

If you mean straining grains like those used in brewing beer - I am sure that a double layer would do the trick. I have not tried it personally, but I have brewed beer and know the size of grain produced in the brewing process. Good luck - and please do let the rest of us know if you try it out and it works.

Actually I use the Hard White Wheat berries to make my flour and it has worked great for making bread. I will have to try the soft white wheat berries for biscuits and such.

It would be tight. You can reduce the recipe to 3/4 and it would work. I have a 1 1/2 and when I do the 7-grain version I have to reduce it to 3/4 because it rises so much. I don't have that problem with the 9 grain.

Mine holds a good big 4 cups I grind grains to make beer if the grinder is empty you can get another cup in. Since I grind something in the neighbor hood of 12-14 pounds of grain you get to refill the hopper. This is a home owner sized device and works as advertised I have good results with it I am pleased. There are many larger systems available but for my needs this works fine

although I haven't tried it yet, I did do a lot of reading before I purchased it. It should grind nuts, grains, and dried beans. We purchased it for emergency use. I own an electric wheat grinder.

I haven't tried it with nuts or grains. I mostly used it to grind up cinnamon so far. But it should grind nuts.
