    A good review of the product I was thinking of buying this too.

    Thanks for your research. I have had a lot of people ask me what grinder to get and I concur with your findings. Great job!

    Where was this article a couple weeks ago?? I just burned out my kitchen Aid trying to grind wheat with my attatchment!! Thanks for all the helpful advice on getting a new wheat grinder.

    Can you tell me the names of the electric wheat mills that come with a manual crank? I did a google search and can't find anything like that.

    You didn't mention this one but I like that it has a manual option and an electric option. I have the "family grain mill" and I really like it. It's good for those of us who want it all. :-) Instead of buying a separate motor I just got an adapter and can use it with my Bosch machine. Got mine at pleasanthillgrain.com Does a good job and I've been making fluffy delicious 100% whole wheat bread with it.

    Wow, I posted a question on my blog about wheat grinders the same day that you posted this. I will link you up! :)

    Angela, Thanks for the link! Hope our info helped you out :)

    Cutie Pie, Thanks for the heads up on the family grain mill. I had never heard of them before. I'm going to add in a little more info in the post now.

    Kylene, I'm modifying the post to give more details on some manual/electric combo options.

    I love my WonderMill! My parents gave it to me for my birthday about a year and a half ago and it's been great.

    I'm interested in the Family Grain Mill Manual Hand Base model- does anyone else use this mill- does it have low flour dust, space for a bowl underneath, pros/cons? Thanks for the additional information on the grain mills- I appreciate all the research.

    I am allergic to wheat and am interested in making almond flour. Do you have a suggestion on the best ginder for this task?

    Denise, The Wonder Junior can grind nuts and seeds. It is a manual grinder but one of the better ones. Any electric grinders will have problems with grinding nuts. If you want to learn about the Wonder Juniors you can look under our products tab for more info on the WonderMill products.

    The family grain mill: you can buy a $30 adapter and use it with your kitchen aid machine or bosch machine. That way you can have the hand crank and also an electric option for everyday use. So you would spend $119 + $30 for a grinder that does both! Pretty good deal and it works great!

    I'm sorry if you already posted this somewhere, but how many minutes does it take the Wondermill Junior (hand-crank) to grind one cup of whole wheat flour?
