Question 1

Has anyone had this a long time? My last mill started leaving metal powder on everything I ground. Does this one?

Accepted Answer

As a rule you are supposed to dump the fist 2 cups of ground wheat (or what you grind) to make sure the metal filings are worked out. That is with any metal grinder.

Question 2

Can the electric motor be mounted to this grinder or is the motor strickly for the deluxe model?

Accepted Answer

Deluxe model. Honestly I wouldn't waste your money on the basic one- I had it twice and the handle broke both times. The deluxe one is so much better and not much more money. The motor is nice to have a well

Question 3

Can you get extra parts for it? Grinding wheels etc.

Accepted Answer

corps0331, you said you found a place for replacement parts. Could you share that information?

Question 4

Can you grind dehydrated vegetables that are broken up into small pieces?

Accepted Answer

I don't see why not. It's less hard than grains. It's a good thought... I was thinking of dehydrating home made dog food, and it would surely save space to grind it too! This handles some pretty tough whole wheat berries. I have run mine over an hour with the motor attachment. I opted for this one because I can also hand grind when the power is out. I make breads on the woodstove, which are great. Even power is on I do it!   Make sure you realize only this deluxe can take the motor...I know that's not what you asked about...but the motor is very worth it!My only one little issue with this grinder for wheat....which is no big deal... but it may also be true with veggies...sometimes when you are near the end of what's in the hopper, sometimes (with motor OFF please!) need to push the stuff down a little more. Seems the weight of more stuff in the hopper does the pushing. Not an issue with the hand grinding so much, but could be. I poke the stuff down with a skewer and it works again for the duration of what's left in it. Very sturdy, very good, I use it on the finest setting, good fine powder comes out.
