KitchenAid KGM Stand-Mixer Grain-Mill Attachment Review

Grinds whole grain wheat into a nice fine flour for bread making. Works as advertised.
Dinged it a star because:
- limited to grinding 10 cups of flour during a session, then having to wait 45 minutes for the motor to cool. Instructions do not delineate between professional series mixers and smaller models so not sure if this is an issue for the bigger mixers.
- blades are steel - long term storage requires disassembly and coating blades with mineral oil to limit rust. Must clean initially before first use to avoid clogging
- housing is fairly substantial aluminum, hopper holds about three cups of berries. The housing does rock and roll a bit when you grind at the finest setting for flour in a single pass; nothing broke and I guess it would be ok, but seeing the deflection in that housing left me uncomfortable.
Bottom Line - ok for occasional use. Buy a dedicated device if you have 10 kids and make bread every day from fresh ground flour as I can't see this holding up to serious use for any length of time.

Enjoy the superior flavor of freshly ground baking ingredients with the help of this simple-to-use mixer attachment. Designed for use with KitchenAid stand mixers (sold separately), the all-metal mill attaches easily to the mixer's hub to quickly grind any low-moisture and low-oil grain--everything from wheat, corn, and oats to rice, buckwheat, barley, and millet. Choose from barely cracked to extra-fine consistencies--and several settings in between--to achieve the exact coarseness desired for each recipe. Best of all, just-ground grain imparts a rich, hearty taste and texture to foods, and it prevents the depletion of nutrients common with store-bought items. Great for those on gluten-free or other special diets, the unit also makes it fast and effortless to prepare delicious cracked-wheat bread, chunky cornmeal muffins, and other everyday staples for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The grain-mill attachment comes with a cleaning brush and measures approximately 8 by 4-2/5 by 8-1/5 inches.
