Question 1

Has anyone had problems or success grinding malt for home brewing purposes?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I used to successfully use the mill for grinding malt when I was home brewing.  Cracked many 50 pound bags of malt over the years.  You do not want to set it to too fine a grind,  just set it so the malt is barely cracked.

Question 2

I have an Accolade 400.  Will this grinder work for me?  Thank you.

Accepted Answer

Jennifer.  I worked for a Hobart/Kitchenaide repair shop for over 8 years.  All Kitchenaide accessories will work on all modern Kitchenaide mixers.  My grinder has been used on 3 different models of mixers and each has performed well.  I have used my grinder to make flours and meals of corn, wheat, buck wheat, rye, rice, spelt, millet, amaranth, black beans, almonds, peanuts and sorghum.  I ground 40 pounds (about 3/4 bushel) of corn this past week with the grinder attached to a model KP216M1 (600 Professional).  Your Accolade 400 is a medium powered mixer and will easily handle this grinder.  Please remember not run the mixer with grinder for longer than 20 minutes without giving the motor a rest to cool down.

Question 3

I want to use this with roasted almonds to make almond butter.  My brother has a Champion that makes butter easily.  Anyone done any roasted nuts?

Accepted Answer

I use my food processor to make almond or other nut butters. I toast the nuts then grind them in the food processor adding just a small amount of almond or walnut oil at the end to get the right consistency. It's much better than the "fresh-ground" at stores, because they use low grade/older nut stock, so it's not usually fresh tasting at all. Good luck!

Question 4

This mill can grind dry herbs and spices?

Accepted Answer

its' not recommended for herbs/spices but as long as they are fully dry and not oily (i.e. no rosemary) it will work.  But if you primary want to grind herbs/spices I'd recommend use an actual spice grinder or a cheap coffee grinder. this grain mill is way overkill for that.
