We received this wonderful letter from Kai Moessle of Little Falls, New York. He says: “I am writing to let you know how happy I am with the performance and durability of your grain mill.  I bought mine directly from you as a “scratch and dent” special in 2008.  I have yet to find the blemish in the finish.  After 13 years I am still using the original grinding plates and have not noticed any decrease in flour quality or grinding speed.  I use an average of 100 lbs. of…

Malissas Letter

“This mill has my highest respect and approval.”

February 9, 2018

We received a letter from one of our wonderful customers who has owned the mill for 18 months and uses it almost daily to hand grind her wheat.  Malissa writes: “We had known about this mill for about two years.  And we were so desperate.  We had to get something.  Our common emergency mill was not suitable for long-term use for fine flour.  We were stumped.  (We were, at one point, buying whole wheat flour.)” Then, after purchasing the Country Living Grain Mill, Malissa continues, “Words cannot describe how this…

Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity May Be Mythical

March 23, 2017

Free

MSRP:

Since the 2011 Gluten-Intolerance study at Monash University, unscrupulous opportunists have seized upon the findings and turned their gluten-free products into a 15 billion dollar a year industry. This promotion of gluten and wheat in general as unhealthful was aided and abetted by such books as Grain Brain and Wheat Belly, which made a number of scientifically dubious assertions. Now, Peter Gibson, the same researcher who headed up the 2011 study, has released the results of his follow up study, in which 37 people, who self-identified as gluten-intolerant, participated. The…

Keith and Tana Hanlon sent us the following letter and photos about how they motorized their Country Living using a tool they already had on hand: “Hello All, Just want to say how much we enjoy using your mill. We turn out anywhere from 8 to 12 cups of flour weekly. Good exercise to say the least. but alas, I tired of turning it by hand and decided to add a motor.

Fall Unraveling

September 28, 2016

MSRP:

The first school buses of autumn send shivers through me. It’s true. Those yellow-carriers-of-children to some endless dolor of desks and chalky dust evoke in me inner prickles of impending loss. Once the diesel-belching yellow dragons start sniffing out the summer-bleached children I know that all that’s halcyon and warm will soon be shorn and shrunk. Long and leisurely swims in the lake will end and the curtains of night will draw ever tighter around the waning windows of winter light. Everything, everything will be foreshortened. The constraints of ever…

Walden Labs Grain Mill Review

April 1, 2015

Free

MSRP:

Excerpt from Country Living Grain Mill Review – Walden Labs “The benefits of grinding your own grains are many, one benefit being that you avoid the highly processed and refined flour that you buy in the store. That stuff is dead! Whole grain flour is healthier, plus whole grains store much longer than flour. While you could grind your own flour with just stones you’ll want a proper grain mill to do it effectively, for example the Country Living Grain Mill. The Country Living Grain Mill is one of the…
