Mockmill
I have the Mockmill Grain Mill Attachment for my KitchenAid stand mixer. I initially bought it as a relatively low-price mill that could run off my existing stand mixer and not add another appliance to my counter. If you want to try milling grain or only expect to mill a little bit on occasion, then I think it will do the job well enough. In my case, I found myself wanting to mill more grain more often. With larger quantities, the motor and grain can get quite hot, which may degrade the nutrient quality of the flour. It also works quite slowly and, even on the finest setting, leaves a fairly large piece of bran that I’ll then need to sift out. In the long run, I think I would’ve been better served to spend more on a standalone mill.

Mockmill 100
I love my Mockmill 100. It grinds up corn (2 quick passes) and wheat berries to a fine flour in no time. Super easy to use.
Although it can be tricky to clean the stones (has 2 small springs that could be easily misplaced) and the chute, the overall performance and product output is great.
Since getting this mill, I have been enjoying freshly milled flour at home. Recent trip to Portugal inspired me to try their traditional cornbread, Broa do milho. The heirloom corn’s flavor came out better tasting than the original!!

WonderMill WM2000
I bought a WonderMill WM2000 electric six years ago. I can recommend it without hesitation. I use it both on the BREAD and PASTRY settings. The mill is very efficient and not excessively noisy. Cleanup is a breeze. I’ve had only two issues with it: overfilling the hopper, and attempting to grind oil seeds. Had I read the very clear and helpful instruction booklet, I would have avoided these mistakes! In both instances, I was able to unclog the unit without having to remove the housing or send it for servicing. I’m perfectly happy with my WonderMill and look forward to using it for many more years.

SLSY Dry Wet Grinder
This mill is absolutely awesome! I love it! I use it to grind my flour and cornmeal. I use it to grind my animal feed and I can also use it to make fresh masa for corn tortillas because it grinds wet grains as well.
