Grain Mill Reviews! This is the third in a series of videos to help you choose your new grain mill. Brian compares three of the most popular electric grain mills on the market today: The Wondermill, The Family Grain Mill, and the Komo Grain Mill line. See the strengths and weaknesses of each, including a visual demo of how fine they can grind, how fast they grind, and even the effort required for cleanup. See our website for more reviews and videos.
I think any comparison should include cost; the Wondermill cost half of what the Komo costs. Plus the Wondermill certainly has a more powerful motor than the Family Grain Mill, which means it will last a heck of a lot longer. Not sure about Komo, but since I can buy two Wondermills for less than one Komo, I am not concerned, especially since the Wondermill has a lifetime warranty . . . also not mentioned in the comparison, which was useful, but hardly comprehensive. I had to laugh when it was necessary to grind the grain in the Family Grain Mill twice, in order to get close to the quality of either of the other two mills. I would note that the Wondermill got dinged because of the "disadvantage" of having to store the grain in the closed container. This overlooks the advantage of having the only closed system of the three different mills!
Also note that Wondermill sells a bagging system now, that allows you to fill the bag directly as you mill the grain. No mess pouring it out, with flour dust getting on everything. Wondermill can run continuously for hours and grind up to half a ton of wheat in less than 10 hours! Given its price, you can buy the electric Wondermilll AND a manual Wonder Junior Hand Grinder (different company, great manual grinder) for less that the cost of the Komo.
That's my review.
"the Wondermill certainly has a more powerful motor than the Family Grain Mill, which means it will last a heck of a lot longer" Maybe, maybe not. The family grain mill motor is 150 watt permanent magnet (brushless), komo 250 watt asynchronous (brushless) and the wondermill 1250 watt universal motor . Based on that my guess is that the wondermill will fail first, if not mechanically then trough the heat. It is nevertheless a good buy.

Could this be used to grind spices? If so, then how would you clean it to make flour?
@@AzarVlogs So, what is your point?
I’ve had a KoMo Classic for about 10 years. I can’t compare to any of the others, but for me, I’m pretty happy with it. Pros…First, it’s beautiful & made really well - no problems with wear. The flour quality is excellent, imo. Cons…It’s loud - but better when the lid is on the hopper. The stones heat up after ~6 cups of wheat - I take mine apart & let the stones cool between grindings. I don’t want hot flour until it’s in the oven. 🤔 I’m pretty sure this would be the same for all mills. I usually grind all my flour one day, & mix dough the next, since I make 8-10 loaves at a time. Cleaning it is a pain. I brush off everything & carefully flip it upside down (don’t put weight on the spout or on-off button) & tap it on the counter - it’s almost impossible to get every speck of flour out. Vacuuming might work. I put a couple of bay leaves or tea bags on the stones & inside the spout to discourage wildlife, since I go a long time between grindings.
Oh I am so thank full to you , being in Calgary it was challenge to get freshly grounded millet for my ancient grain rotis , today I did grind bajara millet in mins soo happy soo happy
Hi which one do you have? I am planning to buy one and as a indian I am planning make roti.
Thank you for the great video comparing the Wondermill and the Komo grain mills. I have been trying to decide which machine best fits my needs and your video answered many questions. I think the deciding factor is the wide range of coarseness that can be achieved with the Komo. Well worth the price difference plus it's a beautiful machine, worthy of staying on the counter to be enjoyed. Thank you, again, for your informative video.
i dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account?
I was stupid forgot my password. I love any assistance you can offer me.
@Silas Rafael instablaster =)
I would of liked to see a close up of the flour so could of seen the texture
Is it just me? The Wondermill took 7.5sec to complete the grain from the insertion point. The Komo took 15 sec. DOUBLE the time. Go and time it yourself. Just funny that he said the Komo ground faster than the rest... "especially the Family mill". Otherwise good review, the approach was better than average on here
What about the mockmill? How dies it comparere with the komo and wondermill?
Well done evaluation ! Thank you. To bad the company went out of business. Only the left audio channel is working.
You should show a closer view of the powders!
Can these grind sprouted (and dehydrated) grains and beans? I know not flax, etc.
By-weight comparisons would be more objective regarding the coarse material being sifted out.
Thank you for sharing this 🙏 wonderful tutorial ❤️ video
how does the nutrimill ....komo version compare to the komo
What about the Blendtec? It's fast, sounds like the wondermill, and the flour is wonderfully fine. And, how do those two compare?
please send me details and prices of WonderMill and Komo. Thanks
Is there any health benefits from a mill that has a stone grounded or with a metal blades?
Thanks
Any of stone mills come with a natural stone? And I mean natural granite stone , not the synthetic Correndom stone
royal lee grain mill
what about the nutramill? thats what i have and its the best one i have ever had, and i have owned a couple you have on your video.
Oh okay i see now! Smart!😊
What about a vitamixer ?
Really need a close up of what's being produced.
Why has the OnlyGrainsMill website been down for like ever? Are you still in business?
I think they are gone.
It would be nice if you would have a camera OVER the bowls and mills. I would watch it. I cannot tell anything about the noise, either
How is the Komo Magic? I would like to get an electric mill, I currently use a country living grain mill, but most days I don't have time after work to manually mill flower.
How about Kitchen Aid mill grain attachment?
please show course grinding for rice or corn grits.
why would you fresh grind wheat and then store in the pantry? kind of defeats the purpose.
no one shows course grinding so i can buy one so i will go with kitchenaid mill attachment.
I like the idea you had of comparing 3 different brands but you missed the mark a tiny bit :) Cost of each would've been great. The lids should've been put back on for an accurate noise test. A 1/4 cup of grain was simply too fast and is probably why you didn't bother with the lids. A 1/4 cup was also too little as far as showing how much flour a person can get from a certain amount of grain; "about that much" when you're sitting and watching a screen doesn't really translate well. It would've been better if you'd done 3 truly electric mills and forgotten about the hybrid. I suppose now I'll search for those individual reviews you said have more detail because I need more detail. . . . .thanks for sharing.
How do they do with buckwheat flour?
How much is a komo ?
In Germany a new one costs 259€ (about 305 USD) + shipping right now for the KoMo Fidibus 21. The one shown here is the KoMo Classic, which has a more powerful motor, but also costs 379€ (445 USD). Of course pricing may be different in other countries. Anyway, I bought mine over 6 years ago and I'd say about 150kg grains (spelt, barley, rye, wheat) went through it, maybe more, it's hard to keep track for that long. Plus about 20kg coffee (although with a different set of grinding stones). Still works like on day 1.
Over here, these little gems actually come with 12 years of warranty, and from what I can tell, it will easily outlive that.
Is There A More Resent Review? 7,8 Years Ago Is A Bit Long.
Audio isn’t working!
the Wondermill is a terrible product. I bought one and only used it 4 times. It started smoking and spitting black stuff out the sides. I spent $40 to ship it to them to fix it. When it returned it started spitting flour out of the sides. When I contacted them, they said that I'd have to pay another $40 to get it fixed. This is terrible service. They take no responsibility for their service or their product. I hope you don't invest in this product and be stuck with $300 in a product that doesn't work!!
lifthard Gramps , I agree. Also, how do you clean the inside where I'm sure there is some flour left, unhygienic.
"As you can see, the Family Grain Mill took SLIGHTLY longer...." Come on man, get real, it took about 5 times longer, that is not slightly.
The komo mill is a very poor product. The grinding stone has given way and broken into two, within months, after being very sparingly used
I fine the NutriMill Harvest Grain Mill better than any of the ones he is showing.....
No audio at all after intro.
You know what i don't trust this. Why?? The video man is nout showing us the end flour i can tell by watching it. I lovevyour expanation, but you failed by the video. I should see it closer.not only by touching own your fingers. Please let your video man should get closer to the flour. Anywas, thank you for your time. It helps me a lot
Where is the Grainmaker mill? None better in my opinion. Bar none.
wtf, show us up close
bolony.....this is ridiculous
