Precautions And Safety Notices - MOCK Mockmill Operating Instructions Manual

PRECAUTIONS
AND SAFETY NOTICES
Please read the following
carefully before using your
Mockmill for the first time.
Selecting grain
Use only cleaned grains. Unclean
grain may contain small stones
that can damage the milling
stones.
Milling foods or substances
other than those listed on pages
12–14 can damage your mill
and void the warranty. In case
of doubt, please contact us by
sending an e-mail to
info @ mockmill.com
Only use dry grain for milling
Moist grain will lead to the
build-up of a film on the milling
stones. You can remove the film
simply by milling dry grain on
a coarse setting. (Operating
instructions p. 12).

If in doubt, press a kernel onto
a hard surface with the back of
a spoon: If it breaks with a loud
crack, the grain is dry.
Grains that are too moist for
milling can be squashed flat;
they then look like a rolled flake.
Rye should be stored for at least
six months following harvesting
before milling.
More information about the dif-
ferent grain types and their uses
as well as the adjustment of the
milling grades can be found on

For home use:
Mockmill is intended for house-
hold use, and thus for quantities
generally required by
households. It is not intended
to mill large quantities often
required in commercial settings.
Note: To avoid overheating your
standmixer, limit milling to one
hopperful at a time . If you need
more flour than that, let the
standmixer cool approx.
45 minutes before milling again.
If it seems that's more time
than your standmixer needs to
cool down, please check the
standmixer's operating
instructions for advice.
Milling spices
The Mockmill easily handles
dried spices and seasonings,
including pepper, coriander,
cardamon, cinnamon, and
more. Please note that some
spices, such as cinnamon, may
need to be broken into pieces
small enough to feed into the
Mockmill.
To flush the mill of the aroma of
milled spices, simply mill a small
amount of grain ( such as wheat
or rice ) right away. Then use this
"flavored flour" to add aroma to
your baking or sauces!
Oily / fatty foods
Please refrain from milling
nuts or oily foods such as
sesame, flax, or poppy seeds.
They contain a great deal of
oil, which leaves a film on the
milling stones, rendering them
incabable of processing the
grain properly.
However, you have the option to
mill oily products or fresh herbs
by milling them together with
dry grains (mixing ratio: 5 % oily
product to 95 % dry).
Cleaning
Never submerge the Mockmill in
water or any other liquid. Wipe
the casing clean with a slightly
damp cloth. It is important that
no water enter the mill. The mill-
stones should never be cleaned
with water or a wet cloth!
( Please see the section "Cleaning
the Mockmill" ). Always disconnect
the appliance before cleaning.
