Kitchenaid ?

[jjdthmpsn]

I just found out I have a Kitchenaid k45 standing mixer, lol. Didn't even know it was kitchenaid, lol. Can someone help me to understand something about this mixer. I want to be able to make my own rice flour but how do I go about doing this with this kind of mixer. Can this mixer do that kind of stuff? Do I have to buy attachments? Any ideas would greatly be appreciated, I am new to all this and thought it would be cheaper to make my own rice flour. Any places cheap to buy these attachments? Thanks for all your help.

There is a grainmill attachment I believe. I'm not sure if it does rice, you would have to do some research on that...... or maybe someone else knows more about it

I used to have the KA grain mill attachment, and don't recommend it. Even the wheat I ground in it was fairly coarse. I think that would be worse with rice, which is much harder. If you want to mill your own rice flour, I think you'll have to invest in an impact mill such as the Wonder Mill or NutriMill. I have the NutriMill, but if I had it to do over again, I'd definitely go with the Wonder Mill. I had one for wheat, and liked it much better.

Hello again. Thanks so much for the information. All of it was greatly appreciated. I will do some checking to see where can i find one of those cheap, although I know I probably won't find one too cheap, lol. Thanks again.
