Amazon.com Review
Cooking from scratch is made easier with a stand mixer, and made all the more literal with this grain mill attachment. Use it to make flour out of wheat, corn, rye, oats, rice, buckwheat, barley, and millet--any low-moisture, non-oily grain (peanuts and coffee are a no-no with this tool). Make up to 10 cups at a time. The mill is sturdy, heavy, and easy to assemble and attach to the mixer's hub. Adjust the knob to the desired grind, fill the unit with grains, and crank it up to 10. When you're through, brush it clean with the small brush included in the kit. If you need to, wash it by hand, but don't put it in the dishwasher. --Betsy Danheim

Worth the money November 10, 2008

I bought this to start using whole wheat flour. It does a good job grinding the wheat. Make sure you use it on speed 10 or it will ruin your mixer. You need to let it cool after you grind wheat with this grinder. I usually grind about 5 cups at a time and have not had any trouble with it overheating. If you are going to grind a lot of wheat at a time, I would spend the money to get a nutrimill grain mill.

We have had this grinder for about 3 years now and we love it. I usually mix 4 cups of wheat and 1 cup of soy beans together to grind into flour for bread making and have had no problems.
I've heard many stories of people having their motors burn out from the usage of this attachment. If you keep in mind a few things, you shouldn't have any problems. First off, you should only grind no more than 5 cups at one time, otherwise you risk burning out your motor. Also, I only put my setting on '2'. It may take a bit longer to grind, but I still have a mixer to use afterwards. You can also grind your grain twice. First time on a coarser setting then run it through again to a finer grind. I've never had to do this as using the #2 setting on my mixer and only grinding 5 cups max has given me no problems.
FWIW, I have The Professional 5 mixer with a 350 Watt motor.

I got the grain mill I ordered in record time. It works very well, does EXACTLY what the KA people says it will. Works great for the 7 grain & whole wheat, rye bread grains I use, turns them into flour just as described! It's easy to clean. A good addition to a Kitchenaid Attachment assortment to help anyone who bakes.
Great communication and service! September 18, 2008

I ordered a grain mill attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer. I received emails concerning my order immediately and received my order in four days and the product worked great. The service was unbelievable I definitely would order from Discount Jungle again!

Excellent for small batches September 5, 2008

I would have given this product 5 stars, but I wanted to give an accurate assessment of the item as grain mill in general. This item is best used for small batches. After milling 2 cups of spelt berries at the finest setting, the unit became too hot to touch and I let it sit for an hour before starting up again. If you mill at a coarser setting, you can mill more and also mill faster. If you are mindful and enjoy the whole process, the extra time is not an issue. If you want mill on a medium or large scale, you do not want this unit. If you want to mill enough for a couple of loaves now and then, it is a great buy. I bought it because I already had a KitchenAid and it was much cheaper than spending $300 or more for a dedicated grain mill.
