What is the best method to clean my NutriMill Classic grain mill?
To clean your NutriMill Classic grain mill:
- Always remove the plug from the outlet before cleaning.
- After each milling session, clean the air filter by tapping out excess flour. Ensure there is no flour in the filter if you wish to wash it, and make sure it is thoroughly dry before using.
- After milling is complete, let the mill run for 5 seconds to clear any flour left in the self-cleaning milling chamber. Tap the bowl lid a few times to help settle and release flour.
- Unplug the machine and wipe or brush away any flour residue.
- Hand-wash the plastic bowl and lid as high-heat dishwashers can warp the plastics. The gasket on the bowl lid will need to be relubricated after washing.
- Periodically mill 3 cups of white rice on a coarse setting to clean the milling heads and remove any possible leftover particles.
-
What should I do if my NutriMill Classic is not grinding properly?
If your NutriMill Classic is not grinding properly, consider the following:
- Ensure your grains are dry, as wet or damp grains can cause the mill to plug up. Avoid grains, beans, and seeds with high oil or moisture content.
- If the mill is overloaded, the built-in circuit breaker may trip. The breaker is located on the bottom of the milling unit; push the button to reset.
- Periodically mill 3 cups of white rice on a coarse setting to clean the milling heads and remove any possible leftover particles that might be affecting performance.
- If the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged, or if it is not functioning properly, return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. All service and repairs must be done by an authorized service center.
-
How do I adjust the grind setting on the NutriMill Classic?
You adjust the grind setting using two knobs:
- Motor Speed Control Knob (Upper Knob): This knob controls the motor speed and helps determine the texture of your flour or meal. For most flour, keep this knob to the left. For very coarse flour or medium fine cornmeal, set it to the right. For heavy flour & dense textured breads, select a middle setting.
- Grain Feed Rate Knob (Lower Knob): This knob is the ON-OFF switch and controls how quickly grains flow into the mill, which affects the fineness of the grind. For finer flour, set the knob towards 11:00 – 12:00. For coarse flour, turn the knob towards the right. Always allow the mill to run for 15 seconds with the upper knob turned all the way to the left before adjusting to your desired setting.
For more information, see pages 4 and 7 of the manual. -

How fine can the NutriMill Classic grind flour?
The NutriMill Classic offers control over flour texture through its settings. The Motor Speed Control Knob (upper knob) determines the fineness, and for finer flour, you should set the Grain Feed Rate Knob (lower knob) towards the 11:00 – 12:00 position. The fineness also depends on the type of grain; soft grains like oats will mill much finer than hard grains like hard wheat.
-
What is the proper way to operate the NutriMill Classic grain mill?
To properly operate the NutriMill Classic grain mill:
- Attach the Separator Cup by aligning its handle with the handle guide on the bowl lid and snapping it securely into place.
- Insert the air filter into place on top of the bowl lid. Ensure it is dry.
- Attach the bowl lid to the top of the flour bowl by twisting it to lock into place.
- (Optional) Lock on the hopper extension ring if milling larger amounts; it is not necessary for small amounts.
- Fill the hopper with grain.
- Plug in the machine and turn it on by turning the lower knob. Always start the mill on high speed (knob turned all the way to the left) and allow it to run for 15 seconds before adjusting to a coarser setting.
- Put on the lid and let the mill run. The NutriMill is designed to operate with the lid on for quieter milling.
- When milling is complete, let the mill run for 5 seconds to clear any remaining flour.
For more information, see page 6 of the manual. -
What is the recommended maximum grinding capacity for the NutriMill Classic?

-
How does the high-speed grinding feature work on the NutriMill Classic?
The high-speed grinding feature is controlled by the upper knob, also known as the Motor Speed Control Knob. To achieve high speed for most grains, turn this knob all the way to the left. This setting provides greater control over the flour's texture and is the recommended starting point for optimum milling. It is advised to let the mill run for 15 to 20 seconds at this setting before making any adjustments.

- Page 8 Classic QUALITY OF GRAIN TO PURCHASE Know the source of your grain. Purchase your grain through a reputable dealer. The grain should have been thoroughly cleaned and bagged. We recommend double or triple cleaned grains. The quality of your 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.

What dial settings would I use to mill hard red winter wheat
To mill hard red winter wheat in the NutriMill Classic, start the mill on high speed and let it run for 15 seconds before adjusting the texture knob. Since hard wheat mills more coarsely than soft wheat, turn the knob toward the right for a coarser flour texture. For finer flour, turn the knob less toward the right but not directly to the far right. Always start at a 10:00 position or higher, as most grains won't flow below that.
