The fine setting on my Family Grain Mill seems as fine

as store-bought whole wheat flour to me.

It is likely the settings on your grinder,

as some home grinders do not grind as fine as commercial grinders.

Other reasons for that is store bought flour is often filtered of the

largest particulates in the flour for a smoother texture.

Aubin,

What type of wheat (be specific) do you grind in your FGM? I have

one too, and am grinding hard red wheat. I wonder if that is why

mine is coarser. Actually what happens (and I do have it on the

finest setting) is that when I grind my wheat, I get a pile of very

very fine flour and then lots of very coarse particles on top of it.

So together it makes a coarse flour on the fine setting. I either

need to find a different kind of wheat or maybe there is something

wrong with the mill I got.

Thanks,
