insert/remove the tabs one at a time. To attach: With mill facing you, insert tab at the

front right then move clockwise and insert the next two tabs. To remove: With mill

facing you begin with front right tab and move counterclockwise to remove next two

tabs.

5. Fill hopper with grain and replace lid.

See the 'Grain to Flour' Ratio Guide to learn how much grain should be added. The

NutriMill is designed to operate with the lid on for quieter milling.

6. Plug in machine and turn on lower knob.

NOTE: It is not necessary to start the motor before adding grain. Always start the

mill on high speed. You may also stop the milling mid cycle if necessary.

7. When milling is complete, let mill run for 5 seconds. This eliminates any flour left in

the self-cleaning milling chamber. Tapping the lid a few times after milling will help

settle the flour in the bowl and release flour from the bottom of the lid. Unplug the

machine and wipe or brush away any flour residue from the mill.

We recommend hand-washing the plastic bowl and lid. High-heat dishwashers can warp

the plastics. The gasket on the bowl lid will need to be relubricated after washing or dust-

ed with flour.

GRAIN TO FLOUR RATIO

The flour yield from a cup of grain varies with the type of grain and how finely it is milled.

Fine milling produces a greater volume of flour than coarse milling.

Adjust the amount of grain you add to the hopper to avoid overfilling the bowl, which

may cause the mill to clog. The bowl holds 21 to 22 cups of flour. You will get about 21

cups of flour from 13 cups of hard wheat when milled at a medium texture. This texture is

ideal for most breads.

NOTE - Soft grains like oats and beans will produce a greater volume of flour than

wheat. With the hopper extension ring in place, fill hopper only 2⁄3 to 3⁄4 full.

PURCHASE QUALITY GRAIN

• Know the source of your grain and purchase it through a reputable dealer. The

packaged grain should have been thoroughly cleaned before being packaged. We

recommend double or triple cleaned grains.

• The quality of grain will affect the quality of your bread. The bran and wheat germ

contained in wheat have a tendency to make bread heavy and unresponsive to yeast.

A high protein wheat will balance this, so bread rises properly.

• Make sure grains are dry and do not have a high moisture content. Wet or damp

grains may cause your mill to plug up.
