The mill for connoisseurs – our masterpiece
€ 1197,00
we wouldn’t need many words to convince you of the value of the MT 12 beechwood grain mill. They would feel and grasp the high quality in the production, the appreciation for tradition and the love in the manufacturing.
You will be amazed at the weight of the stainless steel thread of approx. 3.5 kg and fascinated by the precision of this high-quality technology. Always the same fine flour from the first to the last minute and this is guaranteed for decades.
As soon as you enter our workshop, you will be enchanted by the scent of wood and beeswax oil.
You would also be amazed to see the dexterity with which our long-serving employees manufacture each individual mill, piece by piece, until each component fits perfectly.
You would witness how massive lathes work the granite stones and how the experienced colleagues grind the millstones with a great deal of knowledge – each individual stone for itself.
From granite block to millstone
Now you understand the effort required to transform the granite blocks extracted from the quarry into small, round, perfectly balanced millstones. And how simple it is to industrially produce artificial grinding stones made of corundum ceramic, pressed into shape using a chemical binder, in a high-temperature furnace.
Here, at our workbenches, you can feel the difference between the flour of natural and artificial grinding stones directly with your fingertips. The difference is noticeable.
With our decades of experience and knowledge, we check the stored, carefully selected wood for the production of the grinding chamber and other mill parts on a daily basis. Working wood is our daily craft, because unlike plastic, high-quality wood lives and works.
A grinding chamber made of hard plastic would save us a lot of work. However, we have decided against this out of deep conviction and thus also avoid electrostatic charging of the flour.
The powerful 550 watt industrial motor has been tested for months and is manufactured exclusively for us in Italy. It ensures effortless and efficient grinding performance, whether you need the finest flour for delicate desserts or coarser flour for savory breads.
However, the most important thing is always: your flour is freshly ground and therefore contains valuable ingredients, enzymes and vitamins.
The MT 12 grinder is our masterpiece and we are convinced that there is no better grinder!
“That’s the only way to make it – with the flour from my Salzburg wife”, a farmer’s wife from Upper Austria told us at an exhibition, who always bakes a very special cake for her small community for the harvest festival. And you could literally see the pride in her eyes.
Over 40 years ago, Ing. Johann Thurner set himself the ambitious goal of developing the best possible adjustment system for his mills.
Since then, a precise steel thread, with the massive diameter of the mill housing, adjusts the distance between the two grinding stones.
A system that still produces the finest flour in many mills around the world, even after decades.
Today, modern CNC systems manufacture the thread with the highest precision, no longer from steel but from the highest quality stainless steel alloy available.
The weight of the thread of the MT 12 grinder is approx. 3.5 kg with a diameter of 16.5 cm.
A Salzburg grain mill owes its stability and robustness in perfectly aligning the two grinding stones to each other to this solid component.
This guarantees the finest flour for decades and no change in flour fineness during milling
The symbiosis of the adjustment with the grindstones
Each adjustment system adjusts the distance between the lower and upper grindstone. The stones always grind fine or coarse flour in direct interaction with the adjustment – as required.
It is therefore not only the stones that are important for the fineness of your flour, but also the adjustment system.
Regardless of whether you turn an adjusting wheel or a funnel or operate a slider, you always change the distance between the stones.
If an adjustment system does not work precisely, then the millstones are not exactly flat (i.e. they are not exactly parallel to each other). Then the stones cannot grind the finest flour and the coarse portion of the flour is greatly increased.
But how often do you hear: My grinder is only 10 years old (the problem can occur sooner or later) and no longer grinds finely! In this case, the adjustment system is usually to blame and not the grindstones, as is often assumed.
The stainless steel thread guarantees that the set degree of fineness does not change during grinding.
For a layman, it may be difficult to estimate the value of the stainless steel thread. But technicians, metalworkers, etc. know about the material costs, the manufacturing costs, the requirements for accuracy, etc.
Our stainless steel threads have been working with millimeter precision for decades, not only when grinding your favorite grains such as wheat, rye or spelt, but also hard and large grains such as corn, chickpeas or beans.
A stainless steel thread is uncompromising quality from the first to the last minute of grinding – for decades!
The guarantee is valid from the date of purchase, for an unlimited period of time, in the event of breakage and breakage of stone particles from the granite despite use of the grinder in accordance with the operating instructions and manufacturer’s specifications.
The granite stones are replaced free of charge if the grinding performance is impaired due to breakage or chipping of stone particles.
The warranty does not apply to damage caused by the use of force or improper use.
The warranty is valid from the date of purchase and entitles you to a free regrinding of the granite grinding stone if this should become necessary within the warranty period and the grinder has been used in accordance with the operating instructions.
The guarantee applies from the date of purchase for all verifiable material and processing defects and is based on our choice of replacement, repair or reimbursement of the purchase price.
Fragile parts are excluded from the guarantee. Wood is a living material and small cracks can occur in the wooden housing. These are not considered material defects.
The warranty does not cover compensation for consequential damage, loss or natural wear and tear or damage caused by force, improper use or lack of or improper care.
Interventions not carried out by the manufacturer or by persons authorized by the manufacturer will invalidate the warranty.
