Can this unit grind raw hulled seeds like wheat to get rid of chaff, hulls and other foreign objects?

Yes and no, You can adjust the grinding plate wide enough so that you could run your wheat through it and hull it. Obviously you would then have to winnow the wheat afterwards. As far as the "foreign objects" you would want to make sure that any rocks or very hard items are not run through the mill because it could damage the cast iron burrs. (I would use a screen for this, you can go to most hardware or farm and ranch supply to find different size screens to strain out the majority of the unwanted stuff, this makes it very fast to get rid of the majority of foreign material) The cleaner the grain in the beginning the less problems you will have and save a lot of time overall. This mill is the most bullet proof of all the mills I have used over the last 20 years but anything can be damaged with miss use. Having said that I have been milling wheat (off and on) for 10+ years with the same set of burrs and it is still going strong.

This grain mill is very effective for that purpose. It is very easy to set the grinding stone distance to allow for setting the fineness of your flour. You can also purchase additional augers for grinding beans and corn. Bare in mind, though, that the finer the desired product, the harder it is to turn the wheel.

I use mine for only nuts. It will grind them to any degree of fineness you prefer, including to paste (almost butter) texture. Works best if you don't fill it too full. It's a dandy little appliance and well worth the price.

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.

It grinds anything you want to, the only problem is that it shaves off pieces of metal everytime i try to grind from seeds to corn. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND IT AT ALL. DO NOT BUY IT, IS NOT WORTH IT...I still have mine, i also called and email the website from were i bought this grinder to see if i can return it but they never answered me back.

Yes i have used it for grinding sesame, nutmeg, cinnamon, red whole chillies, coriander seeds, cashews etc. Grinds all of them to fine powder. Though I have never ground walnuts, I believe that the grinder will be able grind walnuts too.

I do not believe that it can. It does well with grinding grains to bread consistency but not pastry fine. I just ground a cup of brown rice and I think that it is comparable to Bob's Red Mill but I personally find both to be very gritty.

I've only used the grinder to grind black sesame seeds and peanuts. It works very well with small, hard, and dry seeds or nuts for sure. I probably would not use it to "chop" fresh wet plants like plants....

No. It does not require grinding. the 10lb bag of 100% Whole Grain, Organic Sprouted Wheat flour is ground flour and ready to use. it makes fabulous bread in my bread maker.

No, this tray does not stop the wind blowing empty hulls all over. The only thing that solves the issue is to use expensive hullless seeds. Be ready to pay several times more for those.

I have not tried it, but I would think the way it is built that you should be able to accomplish that. This grinder has several grind settings and does a great job. I am very pleased with it since I purchased it.

It grinds them into various finenesses. It's been a while since I had mine (can't eat gluten) but I'm really pretty sure I remember you could adjust that too depending in the grain to be ground.

Yes - I use it to grind all sorts of things to make Ezekiel bread - chick peas, lentils, quinoa, millot, etc. Works great!

I didn't buy it for that. You would be better off with one that converts to "grains" for that purpose

You can only grind dry, non-oily ingredients. It works excellent on grains for sure. Love this grinder! Highly recommend.

Oh yes, it can grind nuts, pulse them if you don't want them finely ground.

No, but i've used it to grind flax seeds and it worked like a charm, if that helps any.
