Grain Grinders

[Ambergris]

I bought the Corona mill for rapidly breaking corn to feed my chickens.

At one point I also had a dinky little plastic mill from a garage sale. I refuse to believe anyone from the manufacturer actually tried to turn that handle for more than a few rotations--the ergonomics were awful.

I found out the dinky mill worked a whole lot better if I'd first break the grain (wheat, rice, corn, what-have-you) in the Corona and then run it through the dinky thing for flour. The dinky thing broke, and since then I haven't made my own flour except in a little electric coffee/spice grinder
