Before the oven is even warm, before the dough is mixed, the day begins with flour.

In the soft light of morning, the GrainMaker® Model No. 116 stands ready on the bench—solid, substantial, and built for those who take their baking seriously. At 43 pounds, with its heavy-duty metal construction and generous 10-cup hopper, it’s made for more than a single loaf. It’s made for batches, for families, for sharing.

You pour grain through the stainless steel guard, measuring not by cup but by intention—bread for today, maybe extra for tomorrow. With the adjustable feed control slide, you simply slide to adjust the flow of grain, keeping everything steady and even. No surges, no interruptions—just a smooth, continuous feed that leads to better, more consistent flour.

A turn of the Click & Lock knob sets your grind. Fine for bread flour, slightly coarser for something rustic. Once set, it holds—reliable, repeatable, just like a good recipe.

Your hand settles on the hardwood grip, and as the flywheel begins to turn, the rhythm builds. The larger 14″ flywheel carries each rotation forward with quiet strength, smoothing the effort and keeping everything moving in balance. It’s a motion that feels familiar—grounded, purposeful.

Inside, the grain is drawn in by the stainless steel auger, moving cleanly through the uncoated steel tube and into the 6″ hardened alloy steel burrs. Precisely machined, they produce a flour that’s consistent and true—fine enough for delicate pastries, strong enough for hearty loaves. With the first steady turns of the flywheel, fresh flour begins to gather—warm and alive, ready for the bowl.

And for the baker who does more, the mill keeps up. Larger grains are handled with ease using the included GrainBreaker auger. Even nuts can be transformed—lightly toasted to release their oils, then milled into rich, natural nut butters to fold into recipes or spread fresh.

The sealed, shielded bearings keep everything running smoothly, protected from flour dust and wear, so your process stays uninterrupted. Whether you’re hand cranking in the quiet of the morning or powering it by motor or bicycle for larger batches, the Model No. 116 adapts to your pace.

Mounted securely, easy to clean with its removable stainless steel dust cover, and featuring a beautifully contoured body with a vintage-inspired flywheel pulley, it’s as practical as it is enduring.

Backed by an heirloom guarantee that even covers the burrs, this isn’t just a mill—it’s part of the craft.

Because great baking doesn’t start with flour from a bag.

It starts here.

Features

Heavy duty metal construction
10 Cup Hopper
Our exclusive adjustable feed control slide, built into the hopper base, allows the miller to regulate the weight and flow of grain entering the auger tube. This added control improves ease of use, helps maintain a steady, consistent feed for more uniform milling, and reduces strain during operation. It also makes it quick and simple to fully close off the hopper when switching to the GrainBreaker auger.
Featuring 6″ milling burrs individually machined from hardened alloy steel allowing the miller to grind a wide range of materials, including dry, oily, and soft grains.
Stainless steel hopper safety guard
Grind 1 cup of flour in 45 seconds
Removable stainless steel dust cover (for ease of cleaning) Can be personalized!
The fully adjustable, exclusive Click & Lock knob lets the miller choose the exact grind consistency desired—coarse, fine, or anywhere in between. Once set, the Click & Lock feature helps ensure the consistency stays in place and does not shift during use.
Extended lever with rotating hardwood grip for great leverage– Included!
The custom-machined 14″ V-belt flywheel pulley delivers smooth, balanced performance for a more fluid milling experience and a more even, uniform grind. Designed for versatility, it allows easy belt connection so the mill can be powered by hand, motor, bicycle, or other sources. Acting as a mechanical buffer, the pulley smooths effort, improves consistency, and makes the entire milling process more efficient and controlled.
A durable stainless steel coil auger delivers smooth, reliable grain flow through the auger tube and into the burrs for consistent, efficient milling.
Designed with an uncoated steel auger tube to avoid powder coat wear in high-friction areas, helping keep the food stream clean and uncontaminated.
Our stainless steel GrainBreaker auger - Included! - pre-processes larger grains—such as chickpeas, corn, legumes, and nuts—breaking them into smaller pieces for smooth, efficient feeding into the burrs. Yes—you can even mill nuts to make delicious, natural nut butters. No added oil needed—simply lightly toast the nuts in a warm oven to release their natural oils, and voilà: fresh nut butter!
Featuring sealed and shielded, USA made ball bearings that reduce friction between moving parts, so the crank turns more smoothly. This equates to less effort for the miller, especially during longer milling sessions. Grain milling produces a lot of fine flour dust. Seals and shields keep that dust out of the bearings. Contaminants are kept out and lubrication stays in. Clean, protected bearings spin evenly, which helps maintain a steady rotation speed—contributing to a more consistent grind.
Beautiful, contoured body style
4 pre-drilled holes in base for 3/8” bolts to allow for secure mounting to work surface
Heirloom Guarantee includes milling/grinding burrs – the first and only one in the industry to do so!
Weight: 43 lbs.
