The special appeal of the hawos Oktagon 1 mill is the result of a harmonious interplay of design, natural materials and perfect craftsmanship.
Whichever way you look at an Oktagon
mill, it appears in a new light. With three or four sides always
visible, light and shadow bring to life the full beauty of the wood. The
mill features a sturdy octagonal solid beech body treated with organic
oil, large 3.93" (100mm) corundum/ceramic milling stones and this, combined with
an industrial-grade 360W motor, allows to grind approx. 5 oz (125g) fine flour
per minute.
All dry grains can be ground with the Oktagon 1 mill, including soft
or hard wheat, oat groats (dehulled oats), rice, triticale, kamut,
spelt, buckwheat, barley, rye, millet, teff, quinoa, amaranth, sorghum,
soybeans and dent (field) corn. It will also grind lentils, dry beans
(pinto, red, garbanzo/chickpeas, kidney & more), and dried, non-oily
spices. It isn't suitable for herbs, oilseeds like flax or sesame,
popcorn, or fibrous materials.
Dent (field) corn and soybeans can be ground to any texture from
cracked to meal to very fine flour. For these very large-kerneled
grains, grind first with the stones opened widely to produce cracked
grain, then a second time if you want flour.
The
Oktagon is a classic mill, built by Hawos with more than 35 years of
experience in the manufacture of grain mills. Timelessly beautiful and
powerful. The Oktagon 1 is the quitest hawos mill (below 68db) and best hawos grain mill.
