Before you turn the machine on…
Please take a moment to read the instructions in this booklet. It is important to first attach the cyclone-cup to the base of the mill. This is easy to do (See page 5). Make sure the mill fits firmly on the flour pan and the two hold-down latches have snapped into place. Please be sure any grain you put in your Kitchen Mill is clean. Your warranty does not cover foreign objects like nails or other pieces of metal that could enter and cause damage to your mill.
The first cup of grain you run through your machine may contain a black fine dust. Discard this flour and continue to mill.

Enjoy better health and living with your Kitchen Mill
100% of nature’s goodness
If you make homemade breads and pastries, you know what a tasty treat they are. When the flour is fresh, the taste is better. We suggest you try several new recipes and enjoy the flavor and texture of fresh-milled flour in your cooking.
Whole grains are more nutritious than refined grains. Natural kernels of whole wheat, for example, contain 16 minerals, 10 essential vitamins, and at least 4 other vitamin factors generally found in bran and wheat germ. White flour, however, is refined from the endosperm and consists mostly of starch and a small amount of protein. It contains very little vitamins or minerals. Nutrition experts have joined in praise of the Kitchen Mill as a way to use 100% of nature’s good- ness to improve your health and nutrition.
An easy way to add fiber to your diet
Whole grains contain natural fiber. Diets containing adequate amounts of fiber help you stay healthy and avoid many of the diseases caused by fiber deficiency.
Saving money
You can save money by milling your own flour and baking your own breads. Buying grain in bulk can add to your savings. In this way the Kitchen Mill will easily pay for itself. To find whole grains in your area, try several approaches. Call large health food stores and bakery services. You can also call a local bakery and ask the name of their supplier.
A quality investment
The Kitchen Mill is made of the highest quality materials. The heart of the mill is a patented, stainless steel, Micronetic milling chamber. The mill is the most advanced way to mill grain. It has all the advantages of the old stone mills but none of their problems. There’s no gumming, jamming or glazing. Your Kitchen Mill will not overheat. Each mill uses a 1000 watt, 120 volt motor. It is permanently lubricated. It will provide years of trouble- free service.
1 Attach cup and position as shown
- Cyclone Cup
- Micronetic Milling Chamber Micronizer Unit consists of: Rotor and Stator
Turn the mill upside down and attach the cyclone cup to the bottom of the mill. Align the handle of the cup in the position shown. Be sure to empty the cyclone cup after each milling session. Any flour you find in the cup is perfectly good and should be used. The function of the cyclone cup is to separate the flour from the air as it passes through the mill.
2 Attach the mill to pan and make sure grain is clean
With the cyclone cup in place, turn the mill right side up and place it on the mill pan. Latch one side at a time. Make sure the latches snap over the edge of the pan. After latching the sides in place, push down on the top to make sure the mill and the pan are snugly together.
Note: BE SURE TO USE ONLY CLEAN GRAIN. Hard foreign objects like nails and other pieces of metal can cause severe damage to the mill. This type of damage is not covered by the warranty. Inspect your grain to make certain it is clean before milling. Make sure the power cord is plugged into a grounded receptacle.
- Mill Motor with Gasket Assembly
- Mill Pan
3 Place one to three cups of grain into hopper
- Cup not included
Turn the machine on to start milling. Place up to 3 cups of the selected grain
in the hopper. You will hear the sound of a high speed mill that rotates up to
28,000 R.P.M. The mill pan will hold 24 cups of flour.
CAUTION: Do not overfill the mill pan. As an example; 12 cups of grain
will produce approximately 18 cups of flour. This will vary somewhat depending
on the texture of the flour and how moist it is. Continue to add grain to the
hopper until you have milled the amount of flour you need.
4 Removal of the mill from the pan
- Latch
Pull out on the bottom of the latches, one side at a time. Release one latch and pull up, then release the second latch.
NOTE: DO NOT LIFT THE MILL FROM THE PAN BY PULLING ON THE GRAIN SHIELD. It was not designed to be a handle and could break.
5 Pull out and clean filter
Occasionally pull out the black F-shaped filter. This is located on the side of the mill. To clean this filter, just tap it against the side of the pan or hopper or, just tap it with your finger. The filter removes flour dust from the cooling air circulating through the machine. Keep the filter clean and the machine will operate efficiently. The filter can be washed with soap and water, and needs to be completely dry before you put it back into the mill.
- F-Filter
6 Storage
After you have finished milling, clean and store your machine properly. The milling chamber is completely self cleaning. Just run the mill for about 5 seconds after all of the grain inside the mill has been processed. This eliminates remaining flour in the chamber. You can use a soft cloth or small brush to remove any extra flour from the bottom of the mill. The polycarbonate mill pan is easy to clean. The pan will fit over the top of the mill, which is handy for storage under the counter or in a cabinet. The cord is easily coiled inside the cyclone cup. The pan then fits over the top, like the mill was when first taken out of its packaging box.
Remember…
- If the mill slows down, the pan may be too full, the filter may need cleaning, or the cyclone cup may be full or positioned incorrectly. Make sure the F- shaped filter is properly placed.
- Do not attempt to overfill the pan. It is a simple matter to empty the contents and continue your milling.
- Do not attempt to run wet wheat or other wet grain through the mill. The Kitchen Mill is not designed to mill wet grain. Moisture content of grain should not exceed 15%. Check the back of this manual for a list of approved grains.
- The mill is designed for household use only. Commercial use will void the warranty.
- The mill is fast, efficient, and easy to use. It is not, however, intended to be a metal grinder. Some grains do contain pieces of metal like BeeBees, nails, staples, etc. We suggest you use only double or triple cleaned grain. Your warranty excludes foreign objects that are introduced into the mill.
- The mill is designed to mill grains, not herbs or seeds. Do not place sunflower or sesame seeds, coffee or peanuts in the mill, as they may gum up the mill. Oil content should not exceed 15%.
- Never immerse the milling unit in water.
- Do not attempt to repair your Kitchen Mill. If you suspect that repairs are necessary, follow the repair procedure listed on page 3 of this manual.
- The mill has been equipped with a circuit breaker next to the power switch to prevent the motor from electrical overload. In the event the breaker is activated, the mill will automatically shut off. Unplug the mill and allow it to cool for 5-10 min. Plug the mill in and simply reset it by depressing the white button located on the top of your mill. If the breaker is activated again, contact us at www.TheKitchenMill.com
