Will this mill with the corn auger grind wet corn for making masa? Thank you.

No. The mill will do a great job of grinding dry goods. If you use anything that is not completely dry you will end up with a royal mess. Wet corn will cake to the grinding plates and will clog up the mechanism.

We have only ground dry grains and it does great job. Doubt it will grind wet corn as it will clump and clog the grinder blade.

We have used the corn auger, but only for dried corn. I'm not sure it would put wet corn through cleanly without clumping.

From my understanding you can. However, i do not have any personal experience with milled corn and soya beans. I use mine for wheat middlings.

nuts will turn to paste. I know it does corn very well. I don't know about seeds. I imagine the harder the seed the better it will grind. I'm sure the warrenty is voided because it will clog the machine.

No. It is designed to make "chops"--coarsely chopped grains. A high quality grain mill would be needed to make rice flour from (dry) rice. Update: I've read some answers which indicate this grinder will work for your purpose: rice to rice flour. Again, while this grinder is good for chops, it will NOT make a fine-granulation flour. Sorry.

I got one just for rice mine works good on rice I think it will grind about anything you put in it. cant beat the price on it. you have to play with the adjustment on it then you will be ok.

Yes , you can. But make sure that the corn (or any other grain) you put for grinding should be very dry. You have to adjust the knob on mill for desired coarseness. I once made very coarse flour out of wheat berries for making sweet pudding.

Yes, but you will need a dry blade, some blades are wet use only, if you have some skiil and will use this machine only once why not buy a angle grinder?, you may have more option to other use later...a makita angle grinder 5", is about same price, but you need some kind of skiil, isnt hard but not so easy like this one...

I am not sure Minute Rice or Corn Meal would work as well. It could but I know the Full Circle product does work. Considering the cost of my grinder (a Rocky) I think I will stick with the Full Circle Product.

This grain mill is very effective for that purpose. It is very easy to set the grinding stone distance to allow for setting the fineness of your flour. You can also purchase additional augers for grinding beans and corn. Bare in mind, though, that the finer the desired product, the harder it is to turn the wheel.

Yes, it will do the job. That's what I used it for. It works OK on everything but dried corn. If you are planning on baking often, though, it can be tedious.

I use mine for sea salt & black pepper corns. U turn the top to grind. You can also adjust the middle to grind fine or course. They are big but I like them cuz you dont have to fill as often. I hope they come out with regular spice size to fit in cabinet.

I feel this grinder will work on just about any crop or product as the blades are easily adjustable. You can grind kennels of corn from just cracking the seed to grind corn meal. You will have to stage it down by cracking the corn first and then tightening the grinder to make a scratch grain of the corn and then close the blades to tightest setting and you will have corn meal. Coffee beans would not be a problem in just one step.

Although I have not tried grinding rice, it appears that this thing will grind just about any type of grain that will fit in the hopper. It is my opinion that it will grind rice with little effort. If too coarse, try re-grinding.

I don't know about wet rice.But this grain mill I this really great it makes peanut butter and grinds sprouted grains and dry grains they give you different grinding plates. I did a lot of checking before I bought it I love mine it's very sturdy.the country living mill dose not even offer diffrent grinding blades . I think this mill is the most versatile of all the mills on the market. There is a you tube video if you want to see demo on grain mills this might help you decide.the man goes over each mill to help people for there needs hope this helps

I have ground soaked rice and lentils in it and it came out good in about 3 30-60secs grinding time. As long as you follow the instructions, I think it should work fine. Hope this helps.

when i grind pepper corns, i strive for "cracked pepper", but i always get a bit of "fine ground" even though i check the results after each pulse. that's to be expected with a blade type processor. i'm happy with the resulting "mix".

No, I have only used it for coffee. I think that grinding moist substances, like ginger and garlic, would not work well unless it was fully loaded. I wouldn't do this with my mine.
