GIVEAWAY OVER
The winner is Melissa- melizajane20@
I sent you an email.
I am so excited about this review and giveaway.
Before going gluten free I loved baking and made all kinds of things. I even ground my own flour and loved the benefits of fresh ground whole wheat, but then gluten free eating entered my life. Grinding my own flour was no longer an option and my flour mill was set aside and eventually given away to a friend of mine.
Recently though I was contacted by WonderMill about reviewing their mill for grinding gluten free flours. I can not tell you how excited I was for a chance to grind my own gluten free flours.
I started with grinding my own rice flours and tried them in three gluten free recipes that I have made many times. I made my chocolate chip cookies, my pizza crust, and in our new favorite pancake and the rice flours I ground myself worked perfectly. I could not tell a difference at all.
You can read my full review of the WonderMill and gluten free flours in my allergy section. And whether or not you are gluten free I really encourage you to read my review. I am impressed with the WonderMill and how it works.
The WonderMill is great for grinding all kinds of things not just gluten free flours. You can use this for wheat, corn, and various other things. This mill would be great for anyone wanting to give grinding their own flours a try.
And the good news is that the great people at WonderMill not only sent me a mill to try, they are giving away a mill to one of my readers!
Yes, one of you will win a WonderMill!

Disclaimer: I was given a free WonderMill to review, but my thoughts and opinions are my own.
Oh goodness, I would LOVE to win this! We grind out own flour already… using a hand crank grinder! It takes forever, but I’m trying to save up for a ‘real’ one. 🙂 Winning this would be awesome! Thanks for the chance!
My daughter and I are changing the way we eat -more from scratch-less store bought. I would love to be able to use fresh flour in my baking/cooking. 🙂
I have just started baking my own wheat bread (mixing with a bread maker). I have been terrified of baking anything with yeast so this is a big step for me. My next step is to start grinding my own wheat flour. Thank you so much for this contest.
We had to go gluten free two years ago and would LOVE to be able to grind our own flour! I would like to try milling rice, of course – but millet would be the next one I would want to try.
I heard that grinding fresh flour and using it in your recipes makes them more light and airy. I’ve heard that there is a big difference. I’d like to try it for myself.
Me and my wife would love one of the grinders because of our health problems going down hill we need one to make a better meal plan oooh i can almost smell the great breads muffins and pancakes ect….I want to thank you for leting me put my two cents in and let you know how much we love your site love it ! and keep those quick and easy dishes comeing we and a lot of your readers dont have a lot of time or funds these days and need all the help we can get and love the drawings this is fun and would like to see more ….. thank you from R&R in Texas
I listened to an audio about the health benefits of grinding your own flour, and my interest was sparked. Unfortunately, the cost of the mill is more than I am able to spend.
I recently ran across a bread making machine in my Mom’s house. Would my own ground flour work in it, as all the recipies call for bread flour? I would love to have a grinder and find out.
I’ve been thinking about getting a grinder to take the next step in our healthful eating habits…I just don’t see it fitting into the budget for a while. Thanks for the opportunity to win one!
I have wanted to grind my own flours for such a long time. I keep hearing how much more healthful and better tasting freshly ground flour is.
I have one but I’d love to have one that I could maintain with gluten free flours only!
I would love to win this! Becoming a mom this year has really inspired me to cook from scratch and care more about the details of homemaking.
Grinding our own flour is awesome! We have a Blendtec grain mill that I must use outside because it blows flour EVERYWHERE! It also extremely LOUD!! It sounds like an airplane landing. Seriously. I would love to have a Wondermill!! It would be awesome to grind my own flour everyday on the countertop!!
I have wanted one of these for a long time. Maybe this is my time.
I would love to try grinding my own flour for cost, convenience and to be more health conscience. It would be great to have this addition.
I love that grinding your own flour gives you the freshest flour possible. Most certainly a great thing for my family and their health!
I love to grind my own wheat.
I’ve been baking my own bread, pitas, muffins, rolls, etc for two years solid now. I’ve really been wanting to start grinding my own flour, and just when I had enough saved to buy a really nice grain mill, my bread machine broke. Upside–new bread machine! Downside–another year at least of bagged flour. Winning this would be just incredible.
Lynn, I am tired of being sick and tired. I want to start being more in control of the foods entering into my body and my families body. Too many allergies, asthma and diet interolence. So for me I want to use it for health reasons.
I only use whole wheat and I have wanted a grinder for so long, but have not been able to fit one in the budget so I have ranged from using my blender to borrowing my friend’s grinder, to just buying it already ground. I love wonder will and would love a chance to have one in my home to enhance my family meals as well as save money and be more self reliant!
I would love to try grinding flour with this!
I would LOVE to have this mill! My husband has had a heart attack and has spinal stenosis, arthritis, and fybromylgia. We have read so much about the foods you eat affecting your health and we are trying to eat things that are good for you. We live in a rural area and have limited resources locally, so it is hard to find flour that isn’t wheat which is one of the things that works against his health. I would use this to grind oats to make his bread as well as to try out other things!
I need to go gluten free. This would make that easier
This would be so great to win! I could grind my own flours anytime I wanted to make something without having to run to the store for supplies.
I am just learning to bake gluten-free and feel this would be great in my kitchen! Thank you for this chance to win!
I have been wanting one of these for a while, in my church they promote self-preservation and food storage. I would love to add this to my kitchen and start using wheat, rice and whatever else I can to make homemade breads and cookies for my family.
Ohhh, I would LOVE a Wondermill! I belong to a coop and I can get wheat berries. There are so many health benefits to grinding your own grain! Unfortunately a grain mill isn’t in the budget since I gave up my job to come home and raise our kiddos. Starting home schooling next week w/our 4 year old, so excited!
We’re not gluten-free, but we do know that FRESH is better! Who knows how long those bags of flour sit around before they make it to my shopping cart? Freshly-ground flour, no matter what the grain, would have more nutrients available.
My mom has a wonder mill and grinds many of her gluten free flours at home. I would like a mill for my family.
I would love to be able to grind my own flours. Even before the thought of trying GF, we enjoyed non-wheat flours and the grains in bulk are easier to find and generally cheaper. Now that we live in a more rural area, those wonderful flours are even more expensive when I do find them.
My husband is on the autism spectrum and it has been recommended that we give a GF a try. I have arthritis and fibromyalgia. My attempts to go gluten-free have always been faltering because of the expense, despite trying to keep things simple. A tool like this mill sounds like a wonderful boon. Your review of this Wondermill also makes home-milling sound less messy.
I have heard of others grinding their own flour and the health benefits, and have thought it would be a great thing to try someday if possible. With 9 children, it seems buying things like food and daily necessities somehow ranks higher on the priority list than a grinder! 🙂 Winning a giveaway like this would be my best chance for trying out a grinder in the near future!
I’ve been wanting to try a mill for some time after reading that most of the nutrients are lost shortly after the kernals are ground. I would love to give this a try!! Thanks!
I have been wanting to grind my own flour.. this is great!
I bake almost every day, and I would love to be able to provide my family with the freshest basic ingredients possible. Thanks for doing a giveaway.
How awesome! Think of the joy of grinding your own.
I too love to bake! I have wanted to try grinding my own grains for years, for the nutritional benefits, but the cost has always held me back. Would LOVE to win this mill! Love your site, btw!
I would love to win this! We are trying to eat healthier and grinding my own flour is on my list of things to try!
I have always wanted to grind my own wheat – with 8 children this has been a goal of mine. Crossing my fingers!
Perfect timing! I made the leap to make my own bread this year, then recently started baking artisan bread. Grinding my own flour is
the next step in my plan to switch to fresh, whole foods in our home.
I love trying to do this as homemade as possible. It would be great to grind my own flour and use it to bake my own goodies!
I have been looking into grinding my own flour but didn’t know where to start.
I have been wanting to get a Wondermill, but I am still paying on my Vitamix, so I just look at the mill and dream . . . now the dream seems possible.
Thanks for the opportunity!
What a generous gift the WonderMill company is offering to some lucky person! My neighbor has a hand crank type mill and turns out the most enviable loaf of bread I have ever seen. He gets his flour from the farmer as they combine the wheat field across the road from us. Best of luck to everyone but hope to see a picture post on Lynn’s site of the winner with their home baked products after winning! That would be awesome!
The idea of grinding my own flour sounds exciting to me. We try to eat as much natural and organic foods as possible and using the Wondermill would give you that extra feel of natural and organic!!!
Just immigrating to the wonderful USA to be with children & grandchildren & so having to set up everything from scratch. What a wonderful and healthy addition to add to a bare kitchen. What a wonderful example for the young ones.
Over the years, I have known people who have had mills to grind their own flours. They talked about how easy it was, how much better the foods tasted and how healthy it was compared to the prepared flours. I got a chance to sample some of the breads, and it was very good.
I am a fan of making food from scratch and have had a mill on my mental wishlist for a long time.
While I don’t need to have a gluten-free home, I have friends who do. I have been telling them about your site and want to experiment with some of the recipes.
Thanks for the review and the giveaway.
I have dear friend that makes almost everything from scratch. She has wanted a mill for some time and just can’t afford one. I would love to win this to give to her.
Wow! I would love to win this. Fresh ground flour is the best! I wish we had a way to grind our own.
Hi,
I have recently gotten into making artisan bread at home and I would love to win this and be able to try making bread with FRESHLY ground flour. I bet it would make a world of difference!
Kimberly
What a fantastic give away! I love fresh ground flours, and love experimenting with different grains. I would love to win this mill!
I’d love to be the sole source of healthy bread for my family, and I can, preserve, and cook just about everything from scratch. The wondermill sounds like it’s a very capable and FAST machine. I’d be thrilled to own one.
I would love to try this mill on grains that I’ve sprouted and then dried. Thanks so much for the opportunity to enter for the giveaway!
My husband gifted me with a NutriMill for Christmas. Once I found a place to keep it in the kitchen, and found a place to order bulk grain, it’s MUCH easier than I expected to grind fresh flour when you need it!
I have been considering trying a gluten-free diet for my family of 10. This mill would be a great tool to help me get started.
I would love to try the wondermill.
My daughter and son-in-law live with me and he is on a gluten free diet. They are struggling financially right now, and as you know, the gluten free foods are not cheap! I would love to be able to give them a wonder mill to grind their own flours which would help them tremendously!
I would love to try grinding gluten free flour. I just recently read an article that makes me believe that I need to give gluten free a try to see if that is some of my health problems. This would be great for me to try and use with my four children.
Nice! I would love to become more self- sufficient by grinding! I d look forward to the added freshness:) thank you for the opportunity !
We’d love to win so we can try to save money by grinding our own gluten free flours.
I’ve ground wheat and millet but haven’t tried other grains. It would be great to have more variety
I would love winning this!!!!!!!! I would try any grains available. When I was in Israel this summer I met a coulple of people that had a mill and they like to grind smelt (?) simular to oatmeal it was very good. Thanks for the opportunity to win a mill.
We love grinding our own whole wheat flour. I’d love to be able to give a Wonder Mill to my sister for her to grind whole wheat flour for her family.
I would love to win this Grainmill~ we lost everything in a Tornado in April, and once we get a new home, I want to start our new life on the right foo,t with products that are conducive to healthier living!
Oh, what an opportunity! My daughter has a WonderMill and loves it … so encouraged me to get one … and now my best friend wants one so badly but can’t afford to purchase it right now so I would love, love, love to win one for her. What a wonderful company to provide a give-away like this!
I’ve recently started making my own homemade wheat bread. I have no way to grind wheat, so I’ve had to purchase the hard white wheat flour . It’s very expensive. I would love to be able to save money by buying wheat and grinding my own flour. It’s fun and tasty getting healthy and I’m done with white bread! Thanks Lynn and WonderMill for offering me this chance!
Hi! I would love to start grinding because I learned that the flour has a fresh taste and a different consistency. Then I will be able to buy the wheat of my preference and start to experiment with them making bread, pizza, tortillas, etc. Thank you for the opportunity.
I would like to grind my own flour because it is cheaper to buy in bulk with the grains and then grind your own flour. Recently since going GF I make a lot of my own food; it would be really great to win a grinder for these natural grains. I really miss the baking part of going GF; the grinder would help with this part of this new lifestyle. Thank you for the opportunity to win a WonderMill.
I didn’t even know there was such a tool until a couple of years ago when I became interested in making more items from scratch. It intrigued me, but when I looked at the cost of one, there was no way I could afford something like that so I wrote it off as something that I’d probably never be able to buy. Winning this would certainly be a blessing.
if anything….just trying to keep it real. our society has gone to everything processed and quick and ready at your fingertips…..i would also like to win this to help my sister who has been having a horrible time with her “gut” – and my son…..
thanks for all your great recipes!
I have been itching to get a grain meal to grind my own flour. The idea of no lost nutrients has great appeal!
I would like to try grinding my own flours for both the health benefits and the long term cost savings!
I am fairly new to learning about the benefits of grinding your own grain. Lots of different health issues have caused me to look more into our eating habits, and this seems to be an area that could really benefit all of us! I’m waiting to find out if tests will show I need to go gluten free.
I’m trying to get rid of processed foods and hoping it helps with my stomach issues!
I do a lot of baking, it would be great to make my own flour. I think I would enjoy it most for baking our bread. It would be fun to experiment.
I’m an intermittent baker so often I have flour stockpiled from my baking frenzied days. Of course, that’s not good for the whole grains I’m using more often. This would solve the problem of my flours going bad.
Wow, I was just a reading another blog about grinding your own gluten free flour and here your post is in my inbox : ) I would love to be able to grind more flour at a time that I do in my little “coffee” grinder. Thanks for the chance to win Lynn!
Nicole
This is a great giveaway! I have thought about getting a grain mill for the past couple of years. I have a son who is gluten-free and think grinding my own flours would be a money-saver. Thanks for the opportunity.
Would love to be able to grind rice, corn, and almond to follow my GF diet. What a great giveaway!
Lynn, following your blog has helped me prepare healthier meals. Winning the WonderMill would be an additional bonus!
I have never owned a flour mill but what a wonderful way to ‘start from scratch’ and keeping things healthy. Love it. I would love this mill 🙂
I would love to start grinding my own whole wheat for baking. I try to save $ whenever I can!
Grinding my own flour would give me easy access all different kinds of flours and for a lot less money. I would love to give it a try!
I currently grind whole wheat at my Mom’s house, then bring the flour home to make whole wheat bread using the Bosch I mixer have. My husband gave me the Bosch mixer as a wedding gift but we have been unable to afford a grinder so far. It would be wonderful to win one!!
ohohohohhh…… pick me pick me! I have been working on my food storage (just started this year) and I have a container of wheat that needs to be grinded!!
I would love to try grinding my own flour. It would be fresh and healthy for us!
I KNOW the wonderful health benefits that come with grinding your
own flour–I’ve been doing it for 18 years–and the mill I use is that
old! Would love to win a new one!
Wow–what a generous giveaway! I would love to try the WonderMill. I’ve never had fresh-ground cornmeal before, but it would sure be great to make some. Plus, I haven’t used any gluten-free flours before, and this would make trying them out less expensive. Thanks for the giveaway!
I have always wanted to grind my own flour but just never found the right product to take the plunge with. I think I found the right product now 🙂
I would love this. I currently use an attachment on my bosch but this would be so much easier.
I would love to be able to save all those dollars by grinding our own GF flours! My mom used to grind her flour in a Vitamix, but we don’t know what happened to it after she died..She made the most amazing bread…
We want to go gluten-free; this would be great to try!
I would love to have a grinder to replace one that I had seven years ago that broke and because the model had been discontinued I could not get it repaired. I loved having fresh flour in my kitchen to bake with because the taste was so much better than storebought!
I would like this for my wife, she is a wonderful baker and I know that if we won this it would thrill her!!!
I love adventures and making my own flour would certainly qualify as a new adventure for me!
I would love a NEW mill! I have one that I picked up at a yard sale for $4. Yes, major score -but it’s a discontinued model and it’s missing a few pieces. The pieces that stop the flour from blowing all over your kitchen. Needless to say, this mill would be an awesome addition to our fabulously dusty kitchen. Thanks for the opportunity!
I love the idea of grinding flour at home. Where I live specialty flours are hard to find, only in very small packages and so expensive that I never even consider buying them. That means some favorites that can’t be homemade because the flours are too expensive, are off the menu. I would also like to experiment with GF cooking because of some possible sensitivities, but when the cost of experimental ingredients requires cutting back on other foods we all consume without issues, the experiment is not going to happen.
I have never used freshly ground flour before! I can only imagine that the flour would be much fresher and anything baked with it would taste better:)
OH this would be perfect for our family! We are trying to eat more healthy and eat whole grains. The kids would love to help me use this and be more interested in eating their whole grains if we did the grinding of the flours together.
Grinding your own flour has got to be more nutritious than buying a bag of flour that has been sitting on the shelf. A grinder would be a welcome addition to my kitchen and food storage.
I would love to have one of these WonderMills! I live in a rural town and there is not a lot of selection when it comes to GF flours, this would solve problem!!! Thanks for the chance!
My mom has just been diagnosed with celiac and I would love for her to have one of these mills to grind her own flours.
Thanks
