Vitalmill Grain Mill Performance: The VitalMill, by Kitchen Resource, mills a wide range of whole grains and beans into fresh, nutritious flour quickly and easily. 12 cups of wheat becomes 20 cups of fine flour in less than 3.5 minutes! The fineness of the Vitalmill's flour will enable you to make the light textured baked goods you and your family enjoy. Compact: Stores compactly, measuring only 9.5" wide, 11.5" long, 13.5" high. Long Life: The micro-milling chamber works without the grinding friction of old fashioned stone burr mills. Mechanical wear is virtually eliminated, ensuring trouble-free use. Pre-Cracker Design: The VitalMill's milling chamber incorporates a pre-cracker design which means that unlike some earlier impact mills, the Vitalmill allows you to add grain either before or after the mill is turned on.

Clean Operating: Separator cup and air filter keep flour in mill, not on your home surfaces.

Nutrient-Safe: Advanced engineering keeps flour in the safe-temperature zone, ensuring the maximum nutritional benefit of milling whole foods.

Versatile: Mills wheat (both hard and soft), whole oat groats, rice, triticale, kamut, spelt, dried pinto beans, dried green beans, popcorn, dried sweet corn, split peas, buckwheat, barley, rye, millet, quinoa, amaranth, sorghum, dried mung beans, soybeans, dried corn and chick peas. (The Vitalmill is not suitable for herbs, spices, oilseeds like flax or sesame, or fibrous materials.)

New Fine-Milling Accessory: The VitalMill now includes, as standard equipment, a new accessory that can be clipped over the inlet to the milling chamber, adjusting the grain flow to make extra-fine flour from small-kerneled grains like wheat and other similarly-sized grains.

Great for Field Corn: Among high speed impact-style grain mills, the Vitalmill is the outstanding choice for milling field corn to flour because its inlet handles corn kernels better than any other mill in this category.

Sound Attenuation: Balanced milling chamber and hopper lid reduce sound level to that of a vacuum cleaner.

Motor Specs: 120V, 50-60 Hz, 10 Amps

Manufacturer's Five Year Warranty (Including the Vitalmill's Microburst milling heads!)

Vitalmill Discontinued

The VitalMill has been discontinued and distributors have been out of stock for some time now. The VitalMill was a fine mill, but its manufacturer (L'Equip) decided to focus their attention and resources exclusively on the Nutrimill. Links to the Nutrimill and other fine mills are in the table above.

Seeing the Story: Want to show your family and friends just what they're being "shorted" by eating food made with "white flour"? Here's the ideal tool to put things in proper perspective. The first of the six vials in this set contains whole wheat kernels, recognized throughout history as the "staff of life." At the opposite end is bleached white flour... as gleaming and nutritionless as industrial science can make it.

The four middle vials showcase the nutritional riches that today's commercial millers sacrifice on the altar of unlimited shelf life: The bran, middlings, wheat germ, and wheat germ oil, where virtually all the goodness of the whole grain resides. None of that goodness remains in white flour — but you can have it all, by making your own fresh flour from whole grains with a fast, convenient, modern grain mill in your home kitchen. You'll wonder what you ever saw in "styro bread"!

Dynamic Duo: No tool is more fundamental to nutritious & tasty baking, than a quality grain mill. And no kitchen machine is a more useful companion to your grain mill than the Bosch mixer & kitchen center. Bosch mixers perform the full range of tasks you'd expect of a quality stand mixer, but for making bread, they far exceed the typical stand mixer in performance, ease of use, and longevity. Bosch mixers will both mix and knead your dough, and their superior kneading action results in bread with consistently pleasing rise and texture. The famous Bosch Universal Plus mixer mixes dough for up to six loaves of bread at a time (or less if you wish).

Pleasant Hill Grain sells whole grain wheat, other grains, and beans: Choose from hard red or hard white wheat, both ideal for breadmaking as well as many other uses, including sprouting. Breads made with hard red and hard white wheats will be very similar; the main difference is that red wheat produces a fuller, heartier flavor, and the bread will have a slightly darker color. Many of our customers prefer the white and a good number prefer the red — it's a matter of taste. If you're just starting out with whole grain baking and don't know how to pick, we suggest starting with hard white wheat. We also have spelt, kamut, quinoa, oat groats, buckwheat, barley, brown, basmati and white rice, millet, and a variety of dry beans.
