So I got a Vitamix dry container and managed to mill my own wheat berries. Made some whole wheat bread that turned out pretty decent.

How many of you do this?

What is your setup and how often are you milling your own flour?

My first post since moving away from Reddit. Please be kind. 😃

    Nice! I’ve been milling all of my flour for about 1 or 2 years now, and use only home milled flour. I mill about once or twice a week. For now I have the Mockmill Kitchenaid attachment, but I’m looking at a Komo mill and the sifter attachment for it. I also have a seperate electronic sifter with a #40 and a #60 sieve.

    I usually have to mill and sift 2 or so times depending on how fine I want the flour, as the Mockmill attachment doesn’t get a very fine grind on the first pass. If you’re looking at sifting your flour you can get a hand sieve and sift by hand. If you also have massage gun, you hold the sieve in one hand and use the massage gun on the sieve to do all the work.

    If you’re looking for wheat berries, there’s Breadtopia, Central Milling, Azure standard(make sure to do the local dropoff thing), and others if you search for local mills.
