Manual Grain Mill: A Practical Appliance

A hand operated grain mill is a practical kitchen appliance. In a pinch, you can grind popcorn for corn meal; grind peppercorns more easily than a pepper mill, grind coffee beans, wheat, barley and even make bread crumbs if your bread is dry.

Cheapest bread and cereal

If you're where you can, buy wheat or other grains from a local feed store. (Be sure it's NOT seed grain because that's treated) Winnow it when there's a breeze by pouring it back and forth from one bowl to another. Mill into flour or cook for cereal, etc. Google Wheat berry recipes for some ideas.
