    I just found your podcast last week which led me to your UA-cam channel and I am so grateful I did! You are awesome and share wisdom about all the things I'm interested in as a stay at home mom! This grain idea has got me really excited to learn more and adapt this in our own family! I love the homesteading idea of doing anything I can myself vs store bought. I would love to see more videos about this as well as what else you make yourself at home! Thank you for sharing! :)

    I bought a 70 dollar bread maker and I use only the dough function. It does the first rise also. Then I take it out and put it in a pullman pan and let it rise for 45 min- 1 hour and bake. Makes fantastic sandwich bread. The pullman pan comes from usa pan also. Love it.

    New subscriber here. It is so refreshing to see your excitement about grains! I have been milling my own grains (off and on through the years) all thanks to the Bread Beckers, as well. They are about 2.5 hours from us and I have been fortunate to learn from Sue personally...she is a wealth of knowledge! Many of their classes can be found on video via their website under the Video and DVD section. A few are on youtube, as well.
    For those living in the South, the Bread Beckers have drop off options similar to Azure Standard quarterly, which saves substantially on shipping. Keep up the good work...your videos are a breath of fresh air😀

    Girl, I know this is a few years old now, but I give you so much credit for having a big family, and being busy with your business. I found your two Nutrimill videos, when searching the Harvest option, since the Mockmills aren't available for another 2 months, with raw components in the supply chain issues. You have so much energy, and covered a lot of territory in both vids. Thanks so much! Do you find the Harvest not grinding your grain fine enough? I see this as the main complaint, for bread baking.

    Can't wait for this new series! I would love to see how you incorporate fresh grains into desserts like brownies, cakes, cookies etc. I like to make those things for church functions or giving to friends plus we occasionally like something sweet at home. Obviously the box mixes are not healthy, but they are super easy to have on hand.

    • @JamiBalmet
      @JamiBalmet  5 років тому

      Since you have to add water, an egg, oil, etc to boxed mixes anyway, learning how to make them from scratch and keeping those items on hand isn't hard at all! Once you get into the swing of it, it's very easy (and delicious)!!

      P.S. I have same fancy grain mill on my counter, only black. I liked your idea to only grind enough grain for whatever recipe you are doing at the time. Limits extra flour to store. The whole grain “berries” look great in glass canisters in my pantry. My family gets the fullest nutrients (aside from actually growing & harvesting ourselves) from grain as possible. Your comparison Video was great help in deciding which mill I should buy.

    I just bought a refurbished pasta maker at Amazon after hearing you talk about it and love it. I used to make pasta (w/ a KitchenAid attachment) before we had kids but haven’t had time since. Making the pasta wasn’t too bad by hand, it was the mess it made. You can’t make spaghetti with the kitchenaid attachment but you can make all sorts with the Phillips, including Asian noodles which is what sold me. I can’t conveniently buy fresh udon near me but now I can make it. My kids LOVE this machine and I’m looking forward to getting a grain mill so the pasta is healthier (my kids live on pasta whether I like it or not). I’m looking for recipes for the Philips machine that include more veggies in the pasta than just what’s in the cookbook, so I’d love a future video about that. Thank you so much for sharing how you do this. I’m in a similar situation with a business and little kids but I only have two so I know if you can do it, it’s possible for me.

    • @JamiBalmet
      @JamiBalmet  5 років тому

      Woohoo that's awesome!! I think if done properly, pasta can be a great addition to dinner and doens't have to be unhealthy!! :) You will LOVE doing freshly ground grains. It's actually so so easy. Good idea, I'll have to add a pasta video soon :D

  • @moncher2797

    I have this book, too. My husband thought I was a little nutty when I started buying several types of grain & a flour mill. Then I started telling him about the grains. He’s taking it pretty well. Now he thinks it’s great that no matter what, we’ll eat well.
    I think the problem people are having with wheat is they’re consuming flour that has zero nutrients. It might have had nutrients when it was ground but flour loses its nutrition just days after being ground. By the time commercial flour is bagged & shipped to the store, the consumer is eating a bag of powder that is basically worthless. They blamed gluten. But then the "gluten intolerant" ate "ancient grains" & found they could eat ancient grains without any problems. But wait...... ancient grains have GLUTEN! If they were truly "gluten intolerant", then they would have a reaction to gluten, whether it’s in modern wheat or ancient wheat.
    I’m sorry. I get on a tangent when I think of all the whiners. They don’t realize the commercial flour in the stores is so far removed from what it should be. The grain millers have refined the wheat & threw out 2/3 of the product to create "All-purpose" flour. I could go on & on but I must stop. People, read up on how flour is produced. You’ll be surprised.

    If the flour oils go rancid in a few days, does that happen in the baked goods? Do the baked products loose nutritional value in a few days? Does the heat of baking destroy the nutritional value by denaturing the oils?

Still not as fresh as freshly milled but at least everyone ate it. When Azure discontinued it we were so disappointed. So now, you've inspired me to pull out my mill and all those grains I have in storage. I'm going to try it again. Thank you again!

    Spelt is actualy a grain, which is crossed with wheat in modern production. Only if you use the real old ones, it isn't crossed with wheat. But einkorn is superb. Even emmer is an ancient grain.

    Hi Jami. I heard this episode via your podcast and loved how you strongly mentioned that people who are gluten free should really grind their own grains. My only concern recommending spelt and einkorn as 'gluten free flours'. Although they may be different, they still have gluten in them and the Celiac Disease Foundation has stated they are not safe for Celiacs or people with strong gluten intolerances. On that note, thank you for providing the disclosure for Celiacs :) I'd love to know more about your experiences with gluten free flours. I heard you mention Amaranth. Have you tried buckwheat, potato starch, or rice flours? What's a good resource for Celiacs on grinding their own flours?

    • @JamiBalmet
      @JamiBalmet  5 років тому +1

      Megan Ramsey I didn’t say that they are gluten free rather that they have a different gluten structure so many who have a gluten intolerance can sometimes handle them when they can’t handle regular wheat :) celiacs still would not be able to handle
      Those! Thanks for listening in!

    • @JamiBalmet
      @JamiBalmet  5 років тому +1

      I don’t use rice or potato starch as there are so many other great grains out there! I do use buckwheat and there are other fantastic gluten free grains to explore as well! But I’m not an expert at all when it comes to gluten free grains because my family doesn’t have to be gluten free. So I woke do some googling on the topic! :)
