Before you turn the machine on...
Please take a moment to read the instructions in this booklet. It is important to first attach the
cyclone-cup to the base of the mill. This is easy to do (See page 3). Make sure the mill fits
firmly on the flour pan and the two hold-down latches have snapped into place. Please
be sure any grain you put in your Kitchen Mill™ is clean. Your warranty does not cover foreign
objects like nails or other pieces of metal that could enter and cause damage to your mill.
The first cup of grain you run through your machine may contain a black fine dust. Discard this flour
and continue to mill.

Enjoy better health and living
with your Kitchen Mill™
100% of nature’s goodness
Whole grains are more nutritious than refined grains.
Natural kernels of whole wheat, for example, contain
16 minerals, 10 essential vitamins, and at least 4
other vitamin factors generally found in bran and
wheat germ. White flour, however, is refined from the
endosperm and consists mostly of starch and a small
amount of protein. It contains very little vitamins or
minerals. Nutrition experts have joined in praise of the
Kitchen Mill™ as a way to use 100% of nature’s good-
ness to improve your health and nutrition.
If you make homemade breads and
pastries, you know what a tasty treat
they are. When the flour is fresh, the
taste is better. We suggest you try
several new recipes and enjoy the
flavor and texture of fresh-milled flour
in your cooking.
An easy way to add fiber to your diet
Whole grains contain natural fiber. Diets containing adequate amounts of fiber help you stay
slim and avoid many of the diseases caused by fiber deficiency.
Saving money
You can save money by milling your own flour and baking your own breads. Buying grain in
bulk can add to your savings. In this way the Kitchen Mill™ will easily pay for itself. To find
whole grains in your area, try several approaches. Call large health food stores and bakery
services. You can also call a local bakery and ask the name of their supplier.
A quality investment
The Kitchen Mill™ is made of the highest quality materials. The heart of the mill is a patented,
stainless steel, Micronetic™ milling chamber. The mill is the most advanced way to mill grain.
It has all the advantages of the old stone mills but none of their problems. There’s no gum-
ming, jamming or glazing. Your Kitchen Mill™ will not overheat. Each mill uses a 1.8 peak
horsepower, 120 volt motor. It is permanently lubricated. It will provide years of trouble-free
service.
