Newsy Item

At the beginning of this episode, I mentioned one newsy item, and that is that I’ll be in Arizona in late March and I’m planning a gathering with GNOWFGLINS friends on Sunday, March 24, 2013. I look forward to meeting you there!

Grain Mills 101

In this episode, Vickilynn and I covered a lot of ground. Here are the questions I asked:

• Why did you begin milling your own grains? (great story here!)
• Why should everyone consider milling their own grains?
• What types of grains mills are on the market?
• What are the pros and cons of each type of grain mill?
• What non-electric mills would you recommend?
• What kind of questions should someone ask themselves in order to know what kind of mill to buy? (This is the best part of the whole episode!)
• What’s your approach when reviewing grain mills?
• What resources would you recommend for listeners looking into grain mills and fresh milled grains?

See what I mean? Tons of information. Good, good stuff.
