What started out as a hobby has become our way of life here in the Frogstone house-hold. For years now, I have been home milling and baking with freshly milled flour.

My absolute favorite small appliance in the kitchen is the NutriMill because of the NutriMill, it has been really easy to incorporate fresh, whole grains into my family's diet on a daily basis. The ease of this small home mill is amazing and takes no more time to use than it takes to gather all your baking ingredients. The NutriMill is generous enough in size to mill enough flour for baking several treats; it has a adjustable power and coarseness and it is quick and simple to use.
I am able to mill from the smallest wheat kernels to kidney beans in the same mill - even at the same time. The bottom container (hopper) where the flour collects has the capacity to store up to 20 cups of freshly milled flour.

Using the NutriMill at home just couldn't be any easier. Just place the dry grain (non oily) in the top of the mill, set the preferred speed and turn the coarseness dial to the chosen texture. It takes no longer than gathering the other ingredients needed for the recipe and now we have fresh, warm, whole wheat flour ready for wholesome and nourishing goodies.

No more money wasted on ordering out pizza and loaves of dead bread that cost $3.00. Foods made with freshly milled flour are full of all the nutrients and vitamins as it was intended. No wonder it tastes so good! The ease of the NutriMill has made this healthier lifestyle possible.

Why Grind Your Own Wheat?

Did you know that when you use bleached white flour you lose 40% of the nutrients of the wheat? And the 40% that is removed contains the bran and the germ which are the most nutritious parts of the wheat? Not only that but approximately 30 nutrients are lost during the refinement process. And only a small portion of those are put back in even into "refined white flour". As you can see, the nutritional benefits of eat foods made of whole wheat instead of white flour are huge! But it is very difficult to find foods that are truly made from fresh whole wheat. So what is the solution?

Grind the wheat yourself! This is THE BEST way to get the most nutrients out of your wheat. You can get a hand wheat grinder for as little as $50 or $60, but if you plan to use your wheat on a regular basis it is well worth the money to invest in a high quality electric wheat grinder such as the Wonder Mill. I recently got my Wonder Mill, Grain Mil

l and I use it every single week. One thing to remember though, is that you need to use the flour quickly after grinding it. Within the first 24 hours the flour has lost 40% of it's nutrients and within 72 hours 90% of the nutrients have been destroyed. One way to avoid this is by storing the flour in the freezer once it's been ground.

Using your own whole wheat flour to replace most or all of the white flour in your everyday cooking can be a huge health benefit for you and your family and can also save you a lot of money. Breads, pastas, and even desserts are great uses of whole wheat flour and are way cheaper to make from scratch.
