Schnitzer COUNTRY

The COUNTRY is an extra heavy duty mill using massive basalt-in-magnesite as the main body of the mill. Features include a long-handle with spinning timber grip, heavy duty double table-clamp and a mass of 8kg on a wide solid beechwood timber footprint - offering stability and robust performance. Build quality and function is typically high with this European mill, the design standing the test of time for over 30 years.
Output from the large, self sharpening deep-conical Naxos basalt in magnesite stones is via an infintely-variable front adjustment. The cone shaped stones have special diminishing groves that make grinding easy, even when grinding hard items like corn. Anything from slightly cracked grains, coarse garnishes through to fine flour for pastries and breads can be produced.

Motor Kit - Adapt your power source to the Country hand mill - large custom cast 12" threaded pulley fits directly onto the mill drive shaft and small 1.25" pulley fits to power source (0.5" center Ø) - plus A-Section V belt. Reducing at roughly 10:1, the pulley set will bring a motor with 1440 RPM (a common electric motor speed) down to the 140 RPM max. recommended. Other power sources include pedal, solar etc.

Basalt-in-Magnesite grinders are suitable for dry grains and spices. You can grind a small % of oily or damp items in a mix together with hard/dry grains or spices. Check the grains & spice listings on this page for what you can grind. This is not a comprehensive listing, so please Contact Us if you need to check about any other items not included.
