YaeTek 110V Grain Mill Grinder 700g / 500g Stainless Steel Pulverizer Dry Grain Grinder, Commercial Grade | Grind Grain, Roots, Flour, Kernel, E-gelation (700g (HC-700))

I purchased this to grind rice into flour as I have Celiac and can’t find rice flour locally. This thing is a beast! Lol. It’s not as loud as a jet taking off but louder than a ninja blender filled with ice. For me, that’s not an issue at all because I only care about performance. And performance is great! They give you a little screen to sift out any larger particles and with 2 cups of rice I get about a tablespoon to go back in. I only set the dial to 1 1/2 so that’s fast. It does heat up quickly so give it a break in between grinds. I read where people were complaining about the flour not staying inside the container. The reason why that happened was that they didn’t have the lid locked down tight. There are 2 nuts/screws(not really a nut or screw but I can’t think of anything else to call them) under the clamps on each side of the main container that screw into a bolt that tightens down the clamps. I have been using a pair of pliers to tighten and loosen these (I don’t have the finger strength to do it manually) because it makes a huge difference. Also, don’t over fill the container or you will have a mess when you remove the lid. Give it a minute for the dust to settle before opening. I make more of a mess than this grinder does. I just figured these things out trial and error. You can’t grind anything wet in it. If you want to grind wet, the cheapest one I found was over $300 with poor ratings. Not worth it for me. Now the biggest selling point for me. A 2lb bag of wheat based flour is $2.11 and a 2lb bag of rice flour if I order it is nearly $16. With the cost of rice and a guess on electricity I’m looking at approximately $3 to make it myself. That’s saving $13 for every 2 pounds I make. I have already made 6 pounds. I have already saved $39 & another 6 pounds pays for the machine. I now know exactly what is in the flour my family consumes. Plus, I’ve gotten more adventurous with baking as I’m not losing a ton of money if I mess up. I absolutely love this grinder and only wish I knew about this sooner. If someone you know has grain issues, tell them about this machine.

This grinder is fantastic - the noise level was not shocking or horrendous (my regular old Oster blender is far worse) and it grinds to an incredible powder. Be sure to consider the size/volume you actually need before choosing as it could be really frustrating if you choose one that is too small for your needs - you do NOT want to over fill the container. Also might be a good idea to have a kitchen scale handy to double check the weight of what you want to grind. (The motor really does heat up and it really does need a rest to cool a bit between grinds.) For safety the instructions say to unplug the unit before opening the lid. - a good habit to get into not only for safety (can't imagine the damage that could be done to flesh & eyeballs) but it would make a mess no one would want to clean up. Hmmm... I have only used it for grinding oatmeal so its possible the noise could be worse if using to grind grains, I'll try hard to remember to follow-up on this point when I use it for that. I strongly recommend purchasing a better disposable paint brush or use a brushy pastry brush (not the silicone BBQ type) for the cleaning process. The one that is included wasn't worth hanging on to b/c the bristles kept falling out. The cheap bristle paint brushes found at the hardware store (1½" or 2" should be fine) are pretty much the same thing but made much better. Consider getting one of those, give it a wash with dishsoap, let it dry thoroughly, and you'll be good to go when your grinder arrives.

I have been using this item weekly for several months. It is easy to use and efficient. Since I use it to make bread flour I have not experienced and issues. The keys to its longevity, safety, and efficiency are don't overload the hopper, do not operate the grinder for longer than recommended, always brush out the inside of the grain hopper after each use. If operated for an extended period, it is a good idea to stagger the total grinding time into shorter intervals. The unit gets quite hot after it has been run for a while, so it is better to split up its operation into shorter times. It has thus far been very valuable to me for making fresh flours from different whole grains and is a money saver versus buying whole grain flours from a market.

This is an amazing grinder, especially for the low price. But it only has one speed. You can't make different coarseness end results, only fine powder. But it does that really quickly.

in NM we grind a large amount of chilli peppers this used to take a long time. with this machne I can grind a bag of chillis in less than a half an hour. this wsed to take all afternoon. easy to use, clean & best-- easy to get the chilli powder out!! also it doesn't stick to the sides. t think this thing would grind rocks, but you should use it on food first. grinds corn into corn meal or corn flour just as easily great machine. well worth the money, GBA [ Arnett farms & experimental station ] BEEN USING THIS AWHILE NOW. CAN'T FIND ANY FAULT W/ IT AT ALL. GRINDS GRAIN REALLY FAST USED IT FOR HARD RED WHEAT . MAKES GREAT FLOUR FOR BREAD. GET 1 IF YOU NEED A VERY GOOD GRINDER.

Just tried for first time. Threw in about 12-15 1" squares of 3mm scrap glass I'd been saving. Turned on for 4 seconds and sifted out 2-1/2 ounces of powdered frit and about same for larger pieces. At the price of frit, it will only take 6 or 7 times for it to pay for itself. I already had the 4 piece sifter set. it'll take another 6-7 uses to pay for that too. FYI Yeatek does not sell replacement blades but at this payback who cares. after the 2 sets are used up, buy a new one. Update: After reading another review that mentioned metal filings in the frit, I got a stong magnet and checked. Yes, the glass tears the blades up. With 100g of glass, 15 seconds of grinding, I got 55g of powder, 45g of larger pieces and 0.35g of metal filings. It still works good. I'm going to keep using it. It just adds another step to the process.

This grinder is very easy to use. Just take half a minute to grind the rice into fine powder. I’m very satisfied with this device

Working good

This machine very powerful and grind herbs into powder but I used for 15 mins to grains herbs and spices and this machine burn out and after that is dead and can't use anymore. Totally dead it worst for the money 1 time use.

Used this machine for a day for about 20 min and the following week tried to use it, and it was dead. Over heated from the beginning! Extremely dissatisfied.
