Product Description

Blossom's Flax Seed Mill easily crushes and grinds flax seeds with a simple twist to release their beneficial superpowers. Packed full of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber and cancer-fighting lignans, flaxseeds are protected by a hardened exterior, much like a suit of armor. Crushing and grinding through that armor unlocks the health benefits of flaxseed. Blossom's Flax Seed Mill is the best burr grinder for allowing complete control over grinding speed and preventing flaxseed oil from overheating. Flax seeds gently pass through the conical burr grinder, rather than being spun in circles, and, in a single contact, are ground into a flax seed meal with consistent texture and light, nutty flavor. On the contrary, using an electric spice grinder or coffee grinder that cyclones continuously in a circle can produce an uneven grind, leaving some seeds intact and overgrinding others. Seeds can overheat and expel their natural oils, resulting in a bitter, oily flavor. If grinding extra for future use, those ejected oils can spoil faster. Blossom's manual grinder is easy to fill and simple to use. With both hands and grinding end facing downward, turn the top and bottom sections in opposite directions. Use a small bowl to catch the ground flax or grind directly over foods. The base automatically opens when grinding, then closes for a mess-free table and convenient storage, with flax seeds always at the ready. Simply refrigerate between uses to preserve freshness. Grind a little or a lot. Freshly ground flaxseed is a great addition to smoothies, cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, salad, baked goods, like flax seed bread and flaxseed crackers and for creating quick healthy meals, for low carb, paleo, raw and vegetarian recipes. The Flax Mill grinds oatmeal and sesame seeds, too! Made from BPA-free polycarbonate with ceramic mechanism. Disassembles for cleaning. Top-rack dishwasher safe.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid and Simple Manual Seed Grinder
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2018
Verified Purchase
I love this grinder. I have been using it every day for about 5 months to add freshly ground flax seed to my morning oatmeal. I wanted something simple and manual so stayed away from electric grinders. The unit is solid with a nice weight that is easy to grip.

Like some other reviewers have commented, it does take a good amount of twists to grind - about 20-30 turns for a tablespoon. Personally I don't mind the effort. It's a nice mini forearm and wrist workout that I find to be an extra health benefit. It got easier to use after a week or so as my arm got stronger.

It is important to keep it level for best results. Otherwise it can get jammed. But if that happens it is very simple to open and pour the seeds into a bowl, clean and put back together. The lid locks securely in place with just a quarter rotation.

Overall I'm very satisfied with this purchase. I'm thinking about purchasing a second one for sesame seeds.

1.0 out of 5 stars Broke quickly
Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2014

The support ring that holds the ceramic grinders in place is made of a polycarbonate-type material that cracked and then broke after only a few months of use, rendering it unusable. Also, another crack developed in the clear upper reservoir before it broke. We never dropped or abused it. Very disappointed, because it was good while it lasted. Almost meditative to grind. So I'm back to using a coffee grinder, but I'd prefer a manual grinder, just one without integral parts made of plastic.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works, but very slow.
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2013
Verified Purchase
Perhaps I had unrealistic expectations of this item. It does grind flax seed, which is what I purchased it for. However, it does so extremely slowly. It takes many, many, many, turns to get a tablespoon of powder. I really wanted to like this item, because I prefer non electric gadgets whenever possible. But if you have hand or wrist issues, this grinder can be problematic. Again, it will grind your flaxseed, and the resulting powder is a nice consistency, but be aware that you will be investing a lot of time to get a couple of tablespoons full. I am sadly returning it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but too expensive.
Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2016

This unit is okay, but way to expensive. The unit itself is well made, easy to clean, but it has severe limitations in how long it takes to manually grind enough flax seed to get the best benefit from Omega 3's. It would be fine to use if you were just going to sprinkle a little on your food, or in a drink, as long as you are only taking small quantities. If I had to do it all over again I would have purchased and electric model for ease of use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific mill for the meal table and for the patient miller
Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2013
Verified Purchase
This mill is ideal for the meal table because it mills quietly, smoothly and without mess. The freshly milled flax seed complement the food (salad, eggs, fish, meats).

When I learned to be patient, this mill gives me three tablespoons of freshly milled flax seed each day for other purposes. It quietly and smoothly mills three tablespoons in about four minutes. I change hands (right hand to top, left hand to bottom and vice versa) every 10 turns, break after 2 minutes, and mill again for another minute. My wrists don't get hurt and I have three tablespoons to mix with beverages. Patient milling has had its own benefits for me.

Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2014

Note by her husband. This mill works well for a hand operated mill. It's plastic is substantial. The ceramic grinders keep on grinding. It takes about 3 minutes to grind one tablespoonful of Bobs Red Mill flaxseed. Some reviews complained about the time; I can understand. However that is to be expected, I would think, with any similar hand grinder; and is the nature of hand operation rather than a grinder deficiency. Once you learn it, it is not so hard to get it apart or together again. We recommend it.

I like that it does not use electricity, that it has ceramic grinding parts, that the instruction book was so clear, and that it can be totally taken apart to clean. It uses a little bit of elbow grease to operate, so my Mom has a hard time handling it, as she has arthritis in her hands. On the whole, very thankful. It also takes some time to do any significant amount of grinding.
