3.0 out of 5 stars Not sure this is a good idea for the kitchen aid, January 4, 2011

I have been using this for a couple of months and it's time consuming to get the grain through it. You have to start at a low setting and keep moving it through until it's fine enough for baking. I think it's tough to clean up but my main concern is that it seems to be a big strain on the unit itself and that concerns me. I could have bought a free standing grain mill for another 80-100 dollars but to replace my mixer is as you know alot more so...I'm on the fence about whether or not this was a good puchase. On the positive, it does work and the bread is very tasty.
*****Update 5/12/11-I have had some issues with my kitchen aid mixer since using the grain mill. It's slowing down and making strange noises. My sister in law called kitchen aid because when she bought and used the grain mill it broke her mixer. This grain mill according to kitchen aid is not recommended for use with a machine that is not at least 500watt and in the professional series. I'm pretty upset that we... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for occasional use . . . ., November 28, 2010

Grinds whole grain wheat into a nice fine flour for bread making. Works as advertised.

Dinged it a star because:

- limited to grinding 10 cups of flour during a session, then having to wait 45 minutes for the motor to cool. Instructions do not delineate between professional series mixers and smaller models so not sure if this is an issue for the bigger mixers.

- blades are steel - long term storage requires disassembly and coating blades with mineral oil to limit rust. Must clean initially before first use to avoid clogging

- housing is fairly substantial aluminum, hopper holds about three cups of berries. The housing does rock and roll a bit when you grind at the finest setting for flour in a single pass; nothing broke and I guess it would be ok, but seeing the deflection in that housing left me uncomfortable.

Bottom Line - ok for occasional use. Buy a dedicated device if you have 10 kids and make bread every day from fresh... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Price, Good Mill, February 16, 2011
This review is from: KitchenAid KGM Stand-Mixer Grain-Mill Attachment (Kitchen)
I've used this mill for a year now. I probably grind once or twice a week. It's better to use flour while fresh, so grind less flour, more often. I love this mill for the following reasons:

-Easy to attach, use, clean, and put away.
-Doesn't take much storage room.
-Not insanely loud (it is loud.. but not ear piercing loud like other stand-alone mills I've heard).
-Doesn't heat the flour as you mill it.

Drawbacks to this grain mill are related to your intended use.
-There is a size limit to the hopper (I don't grind enough at a time to have this bother me).
-You can only grind so much grain before you have to let the motor cool (again, I don't grind enough at a time to worry about this).
-On the finest setting, the grain isn't as fine as a $200 plus mill, however, this mill didn't cost $200 plus.

I usually start milling on the finest setting, and then run all of that flour back through on the finest setting. Twice through... Read more
