can i use this miller for wet grain like soy or rice?

The way the mill works, I would bet it has to be dry, but hard uncooked rice would be fine. I have only used hard wheat in the grinder. It is gravity fed as you turn it. You can't use anything that would clump together or gum up in any way. I am not familiar with soy - sorry.

Yes you can. Brown rice 2 cups/3.5 cups water/ 2tblspns butter(optional) for 25 min. White rice is the same except for cook time is 10min. These times are intended for Long Grain Rice and it is notrecommended for instant rice in this cooker. There are recipes that include rice, like Black Beans and rice or Red Beans and Rice, both are good. When cooking rice you have to select the Manual Cook button. I have not tried other Grains myself, so I can not comment on that. Hope any of this helps.

I use it to grind flax seeds, and it works great, so since they are generally smaller then rice, I would think it would work just fine for brown rice.

I believe it can. I usually mix rice and beans together to make soy milk. The rice was totally smashed and mixed into soy milk perfectly. So I think it would work if you just use rice.

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, cookies, etc.

Yes, it will work fine. I have used Pam or coconut oil then dusted with rice flour.

Yes, I tried that once. It worked perfectly with the rice cooker but not dry steamer

Soybean shouldn't be a problem. My father-in-law used mine to do a small patch of corn.

Hello, I had a really bad experience with this grinder. I used it a couple of times for flax seeds, and it did fine, but it broke when I tried to grind coffee beans. Hard to say about your question. Wet rice is so much softer than coffee beans, but it did seem like a flimsy product.

I would certainly not recommend purchasing the VICTORIO Deluxe Grain Mill (VKP1024) for the sole purpose of grinding dried herbs as that is not what it is designed for. That being said, if you are looking for a grain mill which you can also use for other items, then this is the right mill. Keep in mind that you don't want to put any wet foods or oily foods into the mill as it will gum up and eventually damage the milling cones.

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 used this for rice. But some grains would get stuck in the holes. It was long grain white rice. Not as much as the metal ones I've used though.

Never tried - would not imagine how you could. It is a steamer for dim sum, buns, etc. I would not use it for rice. Get a rice cooker - I like the 14 cup stainless steel one from Aroma - available at Amazon, but we got ours from Walmart.com

Yes, this grinder can be used to crack and grind soybeans. But it is a bit messy to use for that purpose and the hopper is too small. I would recommend the Family Grain Mill or the Country Living Grain Mill for soybeans instead of this one as they can do larger quantities with their bigger hoppers. Both of these grain mills are available through Amazon also. Just do a search through the search bar for "grain mill". This one is great for grinding smaller grains to flour, but soybeans may be a bit more than it can handle...

I suppose you could use it to make oatmeal, but I would definitely keep an eye on it while its cooking. I only ever use this rice cooker to make sushi rice.

It can be adjusted for a finer grain and should work. I have not tried rice with it, only corn and millet.

I got one just for rice mine works good on rice I think it will grind about anything you put in it. cant beat the price on it. you have to play with the adjustment on it then you will be ok.
