Milling grain in VM and other mills - Was Run to Costco

[Guest guest]

Regarding freezing grain prior to milling in stand-alone mills, Slow-speed stone mills such as the Retsel do not recommend using any frozen grain  ir even high moisture grain, because it glazes up the stones. The mills I am familiar with all follow that warning in their instructions. This goes for electric and manual. Only BURR attachments can handle wet grains and oily seeds. Also, with the slow-turning stone mills (either electric or manual), there is no need to freeze grain, there is little heat generated.

On the impact mills, again, it is not recommended to use frozen grain as it gums up inside. And while the heat generated by impact mills is more than the slow-speed stone mills, the temperature is still low enough to protect the grain from overheating.
