KoMo Magic Grain Mill

Description

A striking marriage of solid natural hardwood and satin finish stainless steel, the Austrian-made Magic has the same internal construction and excellent performance as KoMo’s popular Fidibus 21 grinder. Precisely fitted corundum-ceramic burrs grind to any texture you choose, from exceedingly fine flour to coarse meal or cracked grain. Traditional native beechwood or American Walnut and stainless steel are a striking combination for any kitchen. A very compact footprint means every kitchen has room for the KoMo Magic.

The Magic’s stainless hopper holds 2 lb., 2 oz. of grain, enough for over two pounds of whole grain bread. The mill produces 5-6 ounces per minute for bread flour texture.

The KoMo Magic grinds soft or hard wheat, oat groats (dehulled oats), rice, triticale, kamut, spelt, buckwheat, barley, rye, millet, teff, quinoa, amaranth, and sorghum. It will also grind lentils, most dry beans (pinto, red, kidney & more), and dried, non-oily spices. It isn’t suitable for garbanzo beans (chickpeas), herbs, oilseeds like flax or sesame, soybeans, popcorn, or fibrous materials.

Dent (field) corn and soybeans can be ground to any texture from cracked to meal to very fine flour. For these very large-kerneled grains, grind first with the stones opened widely to produce cracked grain, then a second time if you want flour. The KoMo Magic will grind oats to a wonderfully soft, fine textured flour, but open the stones about five clicks (or so) wider than you would for a hard grain like wheat, otherwise the soft oat flour will fill the stones’ furrows and infeed will stop. Opening the stones further will give you a cereal grind for porridge, or coarser yet for cracked oats, similar to steel-cut.

The grind texture of the Magic is continuously adjustable from fine flour to coarse meal and cracked grain, simply by turning the hopper bowl to align its index mark with the graphic scale on the front of the mill. Cleanup is minimal and easy, and access to the milling chamber takes only a moment with no tools required.

Optional interchangeable inserts: If you prepare food for someone with a food allergy, see KoMo’s optional interchangeable insert system. This ingenious solution lets you grind different types of grain in the same mill while keeping food types completely separate.

Award winning performer: The grinding mechanism in KoMo’s Magic model (shared with the Fidibus 21) received the highest rating by the German natural products magazine Oeko Test.
