The Mill

At the Whole Grain Hearth, we take great pride in the fact that we mill all our organic whole grains fresh. We mill our own flour not only because of its superior flavour, but also because we want to maximize the nutritional value of the complete grain, including the bran (the outer layer) which contains the largest amount of insoluble fiber, magnesium, riboflavin, thiamine, niacin, iron, and zinc; and the germ (or seed) which is an excellent source of vitamins B1, B2, B3, E, magnesium, iron, zinc, phosphorous, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. We love working with local farmers and suppliers to get these grains!

Our mill came all the way from New American Stone Mills in Elmore, Vermont, USA. It has two 40” natural granite stones that we re-dress about once a year! The frame itself is steel, which was powder coated orange to match our logo :) The mill is our pride and joy.
