Product Notes:
KoMo's Fidibus 21 Grain Mill a bit smaller than some of their other models (standing just a little over a foot high), and its 250-watt industrial strength motor and self-sharpening grinding stones are amply capable of grinding 100 g of flour a minute from softer grains like rye, spelt, and (some varieties of) wheat just like the Fidibus Medium and Fidibus Classic and some of the combination units can.
However, the Fidibus 21 is not designed for grinding virtually every type of hard grains like the models with the larger motors are, nor all types of legumes (especially not chick peas/garbonzo beans), nor coffee beans. Nevertheless, it is perfectly capable of grinding: amaranth, barley, buckwheat, dehulled oats (groats), several types of dry beans (including kidney, pinto, and red), hard wheat, kamut, lentils, millet, quinoa, rice, rye, sorghum, spelt, teff, triticale, and even dried spices (unless they contain a lot of oil, like flax or sesame seeds).
The Fidibus 21 is quite simple to use, with the on/off switch easily accessible on the bottom right, and the setting for the grind texture (from coarse to fine) being achieved simply by rotating the hopper bowl you fill with grain on top to the left or right to align the large black dot on the metal band on its bottom to the desired position on the scale on the top of the front of the main housing below.
Its hopper holds enough grain to make over 1 kg of whole grain bread. Very little cleanup is required, and it's really quick and easy to get at the stones in the milling chamber (no tools are needed).
