    Grains, Mills, and Bread Tips with Nutrimill’s President Gary Leavitt

    President of NutriMill Gary Leavitt joins me to discuss the benefits of their products!  Episode At A Glance: This week on The SavvyCast, I am joined by Gary Leavitt, who is the president of NutriMill. Since I began making sourdough bread, I have absolutely fallen in love with NutriMill’s products! They specialize in high quality kitchen appliances, and are most well known for their grain mills. In this episode we discuss the benefits of grain mills, the difference in NutriMills products, and more!  What Is NutriMill? The NutriMill is an electric grain mill that allows you to make freshly milled flour right at home! In the last year, I have become obsessed with making homemade bread, especially sourdough. Milling my own flour has taken my baking to the next level, and the NutriMill makes it so easy to do! Most store-bought flour and milled grains are stripped of fiber and vitamins B and E. If you plan on doing large batch milling, I recommend using the Nutrimill classic. It has a larger shoot, will accommodate more grain, and allows you to adjust the speed and coarseness. Additionally, it has a very powerful motor that can accommodate hard kernels like popcorn. Questions Answered In This Episode: What is NutriMill? What are the differences between the Harvest Mill and the Classic Mill?  How do you use these products?  What are the benefits of grinding your own flour? Resources Mentioned In This Epidose:  If you’re interested in Nutrimill products, Family Savvy followers can use code MIXITUP for $20 off a non-sale item!  Sue Becker Jamies overnight sourdough recipe -  The Food Nanny  The Bread Bible  Azure Standard Palouse Grains  Wheat Montana Farms Redmonds Real Salt   I hope you enjoyed this episode!
