@allencrider -- We love the stone grinders! The Wonder Junior Deluxe is one of our favorites. In regards to our baking here in our test kitchen the impact grinders make great flour even on the fine settings. We typically use the fine flours for pastry type of recipes. We recommend either type. Stone grinders (and grinding with stones) have been around for centuries so many people are used to it. But they are both GREAT types of mills. Thanks for the comment!
Wow THANKS that's so useful! I've always wanted to see them side by side, thanks for finally doing that. They are all jet engines! I think you've talked me into a Fidibus :-)
@janelwashere -- The decibels measured in this video were measured (as you saw) without anything in the machine. On average the machines are about half as loud when grain is put through them. Our higher rated machines (the WonderMill and the Nutrimill) are the quietest when grain is in them. Thanks so much.
@steviebboy69 -- You have a Wonder Junior Hand Grain Mill? Those are great ones. We love them and they are definitely our best sellers. For your information, the decibels measured in this video were measured (as you saw) without anything in the machine. On average the machines are about half as loud when grain is put through them. Our higher rated machines (the WonderMill and the Nutrimill) are the quietest when grain is in them. Thanks so much.
Are you LDS? Do you know about grain storage by any chance?

Stone ground is better than impact grinders if you're really into fine baking.

thats pretty loud 100db that would damage your hearing. we have to wear hearing protection at work and the machines run to about 95 db.
i have a hand cranked flour mill like the one on the right of the screen and motorized it. its fairly quiet.
but it takes a while to grind flour i think its about 35 grams a min at 80 revs.
