Attaching Your Grain Mill; Tips For Milling Grain - KitchenAid 5KGM Manual

To Attach:
Before attaching the grain mill, turn
off and unplug the stand mixer.
1. Depending on which type of
hub you have, either flip up
the hinged cover or loosen the
attachment knob (A) by turning
it counterclockwise and remove
attachment hub cover.
2. Insert the attachment shaft housing
(B) into the attachment hub (C),
making certain that the power
shaft fits into the square hub
socket. Rotate the attachment back
and forth if necessary. When the
attachment is in proper position, the
pin on the attachment housing will
fit into the notch on the hub rim.
• Flour ground with the grain mill
will have a coarser texture than
commercially ground flour. The
grain mill grinds, and you receive,
all parts of the berry; commercial
grinders sift out some parts of the
berry before marketing the flour.
• It is not necessary to press grain
into the grain mill hopper with
your hands or any utensil. The
moving grind worm will feed the
grain into the grinding burrs.
• One cup of grain yields between
156 g (5.5 oz) and 188 g (6.6 oz)
of flour.
• One cup of oats yields 110 g
(3.9 oz) of flour.

avoid rancidity, since this product
contains no preservatives.
