I would imagine, though, that even if the motor was strong enough it would give you as fine of a grind as you may prefer. If you still opted to try it, I would process the dry grain, then soak it after, not before. Hope that helps!Jaime @ Like a Bubbling Brookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02804356840081176564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774908843663599522.post-51480847027734848642010-11-30T07:22:03.252-06:002010-11-30T07:22:03.252-06:00Jaime,

Unf...Jaime,<br /><br />I cook/bake the traditional way too :)<br />Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get a grain mill yet. Thanks for the reminder of why it's important to grind our own grains. Do you know anything about grinding them in the food processor after soaking them? I have a recipe book that states that you can "if you food processor has a good motor". I just don't want to break my food processor!Blessed Homemakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10900030206325400486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774908843663599522.post-3178515689916724512010-05-05T16:30:51.302-05:002010-05-05T16:30:51.302-05:00Cheryl, sorry for the delayed reply!

Store bought flour, I find, has a bitter taste to it! I was thinking that maybe it might be a bit ransit. I am so thankful for a sister at my church that has a grinder and am going to buy some wheat from the health food store for her to grind.<br /><br />Thank you.<br /><br />PS could I post this article on my blog and make a link to your blog?<br /><br />CCherylghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11982525094205036684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774908843663599522.post-21593555664352898582010-04-09T15:08:51.765-05:002010-04-09T15:08:51.765-05:00Until you can afford a grain mill, <a href=&quo...Until you can afford a grain mill, <a href="http://heartkeepercommonroom.blogspot.com/2007/05/blender-pancakes.html>I've got a recipe from Sue Gregg's Breakfast Cookbook</a> that has some good recipes for making pancake batter and a couple other things by putting the liquid and the fresh whole grains in your blender for freshly ground whole wheat pancakes.Headmistress, zookeeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071449326819510530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774908843663599522.post-10593959177453926772010-04-09T10:43:45.257-05:002010-04-09T10:43:45.257-05:00So cool!

Apparently they are from the same company, but one is intended for marketing to Europe and the other for the USA (being imported by Tribest). Let me know what you think after you've used it a few times! I might get the KoMo, too, and save a few dollars :o)Jaime @ Like a Bubbling Brookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02804356840081176564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4774908843663599522.post-26537165972496641762010-04-06T02:32:05.531-05:002010-04-06T02:32:05.531-05:00Great post, and scary information!

It was on back order since November, so I've been waiting for several months. I'm so excited to begin grinding my own grains. My organic wheat berries will be ready to pick up at our local health store soon. This is my first grain mill, so it will be a new experience for me.<br /><br />I ordered from this website: http://www.yourethecure.com/cart.php?target=category&category_id=344<br /><br />I'm sure you know that it's a German mill, and is called KoMo Fidibus Classic. Though I had to wait a while, I had no trouble dealing with this company, and I saved a bit of money too. It's about $70 cheaper than Amazon.<br /><br />I hope you're able to get one this summer.
