WonderMill vs. NutriMill

If you are starting the process of shopping for a grain mill, you know just how overwhelming it can be! When I started my fresh milled flour journey, I did not see many videos comparing all aspects of the grain mill. I ended up purchasing a WonderMill and have been very happy with it. When people ask me which one I recommend however, I only have the one mill to reference with nothing to compare it to! Lets see how the WonderMill vs. NutriMill compare!

If you’re new to fresh milled flour or unsure what this is, here is some more information to help you get started!

Comparing grain mills

I have 2 friends in my community who were nice enough to let me borrow their NutriMill classic and NutriMill Harvest Mill for an afternoon. I took the opportunity to film a 30 minute video outlining the components, size, features and logistics of each mill. Demonstrating how each worked by comparing the time it took to mill 1 cup of wheat berries, the temperature of the resulting flour and the varying textures of each.

Additional comparison’s of note

Pleasant Hill Grains is a great company that offers many of the mills on the market today with great customer service. Here is a comparison of general features of each of the mills.

The WonderMill milled the 1 cup of wheat berries the fastest by far at 26 seconds and the NutriMill Harvest the slowest at 2 minutes.

The NutriMill Harvest Mill has the widest range of milling capabilities. From a very course cracked wheat to the finest flour of the 3 mills, it proved to be most versatile.

All produced a flour between ranging in temperature between 95-115 degrees F.

While all should fit under the standard height cabinet, the Nutrimill Harvest had the overall smallest with a 6.8″x8.7″ base.

Get started milling!

Mills: I ordered my mill from Pleasant Hill Grains and have really enjoyed it! Their customer service has been really great and I have called them on a couple different occasions and had my questions answered quickly. All of these mills are available on Amazon as well.

Grains: I order from Azure Standard or pickup from my local health food stores. Starting with a Hard white or red and Soft white will cover most of your basic recipes. Higher protein (Hard wheat) grains will produce your baked goods that need a gluten structure like breads while soft wheat and other lower protein grains are great for cookies and muffins.
