Congratulations... You own the world’s most advanced electric flour mill designed for home use. Using your Kitchen Mill™ will enable you to create delicious homemade breads and pastries. The Kitchen Mill™ is the result of thousands of hours of research and years of constant testing. Now you can enjoy the great taste of natural, whole grain flour any time. It is always ready in an instant. Your new Kitchen Mill™ is compact, powerful, and built to last for years to come.
Enjoy better health and living with your Kitchen Mill™ 100% of nature’s goodness 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.
Operating Instructions 1 Attach cup and position as shown Cyclone cup Micronetic™ Milling Chamber Micronizer Unit consists of: Rotor 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. www.
Attach the mill to pan and make sure grain is clean 2 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.
3 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. www.blendtec.
Place one to three cups of grain into hopper 4 Cup not included Select the texture setting. You can select any of three settings from regular flour to fine flour. The large dot is the setting for regular flour, the smallest dot is the setting for fine flour, and the middle dot is the setting for medium flour. Many people have found that the regular flour setting works great for most recipes. The machine will not do cracked wheat on any setting. The finest setting will create pastry-fine flour.
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 www.
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.
Remember... 1. 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 Fshaped filter is properly placed. 2. Do not attempt to overfill the pan. It is a simple matter to empty the contents and continue your milling. 3. 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%.
