Mockmill Unboxing – An Affordable Grain Mill

I finally decided to buy a grain mill.  In my unboxing video and blog post, I talk about why I chose the Mockmill 100. I also show you how to set up your Mockmill stone grain mill and grind grain for the first time.

Note: This is NOT a sponsored post. I actually bought this product for myself.

Update: Read about what to do if the Mockmill electric grain mill you want is backordered.

Why Did I Buy a Mockmill Stone Grain Mill?

I researched various grain mills and decided on purchasing a Mockmill because it allows you to pick a grind for the grain ranging from 1 (fine) up to 10 (coarse).  Plus, it grinds the grain between two stones. Stone-ground flour at home!

Retiring my Vitamix

As I have shared in the past, I have always used my 28-year-old Vitamix to grind my grain.  First, I would freeze my grain to prevent it from overheating and then whirl it in the Vitamix for under a minute—and voila!  Ground grain.

Unfortunately, I had to accept whatever level of grind I got from the Vitamix.  It was far from an exact science.  So I decided to finally buy a grain mill, and it was the Mockmill 100 that I finally decided on!

Unbox and Setup the Mockmill

Are you thinking about getting a stone grain mill? Be sure to watch my video where I unbox my Mockmill and get it ready to grind grain.  There are a few steps involved to prep it, but they are easy, and I walk you through them step-by-step. I also show you how to grind grain in the Mockmill for the first time.

Order the Mockmill 100 from the Mockmill Website

• Order the Mockmill 100 Stone Grain Mill (This is the same product I show you my unboxing video.)

UPDATE: What if the Mockmill 100 is Backordered?

If you want to bake with fresh-milled flour and you don’t have an electric grain mill, I encourage you to place your order for a Mockmill, even if it’s currently out of stock on their website.

Their wonderful grain mills are in very high demand, and what often happens is that as soon as Mockmill produces a new batch, they immediately begin shipping them out to fill existing orders. Because of this, you may rarely see them listed as “in stock.” Instead, they are continuously made and shipped based on backorders. So by placing your order now, you’ll be in line to receive yours as soon as the next batch is ready.

For those of you who have asked, I have the Mockmill 100, and it’s the perfect size for my family. (Even though Mockmill no longer offers a discount on their grain mills, it’s still an amazingly good buy!)
