sources for whole grains and nut flours
I am trying to locate sources for whole grains for making into flour as well as sources for nut flours such as walnut and/or pecan.
What kind of grinders do you use for making nut flours?
I am stumped. Thanking you advance for your help.

When I crank it down tight, I'll get nut butter, but if I make it looser, I'll get a 'flour'. Retsel also sells their Nut Master for around $125.
As for grains, check out your area's health food stores. Those who have bulk bins with whole grains can usually order 25 or 50 lb bags for you if you want.
When you use the mill and set it looser, is the "flour" you get kind of grainy? It doesn't become fine like all purpose ?
Thanks for the info for the source.

For nuts, yes. When I tighten it up I get nut butter!
For grains, I don't use the Corona mill. I have a little Retsel Uni-Ark hand mill which I motorized. I like using its stone wheels for my grains.
