00:00So I went down a bit of a rabbit hole this week.
00:03I wanted to grind my own flour at home, fresh wheat, actual whole grain, none of that stuff
00:07that's been sitting on a shelf for 8 months.
00:10And what I found is that flour mill covers everything from a $40 hand crank to a machine
00:15that costs more than my car.
00:17So I pulled the 5 best rated options I could find, across every budget, and here's what's
00:22actually worth your money.
00:24Starting at the very bottom of the price range, this is the classic manual hand mill, the
00:28tinned iron one with the crank handle.
00:3247-58.
00:334.8 stars, nearly 5,000 sold.
00:37And honestly?
00:39This thing is charming.
00:41You clamp it to your counter, dropping your wheat berries, and crank.
00:45It'll also do walnuts, peanuts, corn, dried herbs, whole spices, anything dry.
00:51It's slow, I'm not going to lie to you, you're looking at real effort for a couple of cups
00:55of flour.
00:56But there's no motor to burn out, no cord, and it'll still be working in 20 years.
01:02If you're baking a loaf a week, this is genuinely all you need.
01:06Now if you want to step up to something with actual power, the Wanma brand mill is the one
01:11I'd point most people toward.
01:13It's 298, 4.7 stars, and it handles corn, rice, and wheat without complaining.
01:19This is the machine for someone who's tired of cranking, you feed the grain in and it does
01:23the work.
01:24It's built for home use but it's not a toy, the throughput is real.
01:28If you're milling for a family, or you're doing rice flour and cornmeal on top of wheat,
01:33that price starts looking very reasonable compared to buying specialty flours every month.
01:38Then there's this electric grain grinder, the high-speed multifunction one, at 140.
01:434.8 stars, and this is the one that surprised me.
01:47It's not just flour, it does spices, herbs, coffee beans, nuts.
01:52So it's kind of a do-everything kitchen machine that happens to make excellent flour.
01:57High-speed blade, stainless chamber, cleans out easily.
02:01If you've got limited counter space and you don't want three separate gadgets, this consolidates
02:06a lot.
02:07For under 150, it's the best value per dollar on this whole list, easily.
02:12Okay, big jump here.
02:15The electric mini stainless steel grain mill is 1134, and yes, that's a serious number.
02:21But look at what it is, full stainless steel construction, and it handles wheat, soybeans,
02:26peppercorns, rice, all of it.
02:28This is small commercial territory.
02:31If you're running a home bakery, selling at a farmer's market, or you're just milling
02:35in genuinely large volumes, the durability here is the whole point.
02:40Cheaper machines overheat and wear out.
02:43This one doesn't.
02:454.6 stars from over 4,000 buyers who clearly needed the capacity.
02:50And at the top, the customized household grain flour grinding machine, 4640.
02:56That's a real investment, so let me be clear about who this is for.
03:00This is a small mill, not an appliance.
03:03Corn, maize, rice, wheat, add volume, consistently, day after day.
03:08If you're a small farm, a co-op, a restaurant doing your own flour, or you're in a place where
03:13buying flour just isn't practical, this pays for itself.
03:174.7 stars.
03:19Not for most of us, but if it's for you, you already know it.
03:23All five of these are linked down in the description, prices update automatically so you'll see whatever
03:28the current deal is.
03:30If this helped you figure out where you land, drop a like, and subscribe I've got more kitchen
03:35gear breakdowns coming.
03:37Thanks for watching.
