An exceptional warranty for exceptional quality You expect your flour mill to deliver fine flour in sufficient quantity without overloading the motor. The especially resilient, robust industrial motors in hawos flour mill guarantee this. We certify the quality of our motors with a 10-year warranty.
Quiet grinding thanks to patented elastic bedding
We have developed a construction that does not require the motor and grinding attachment to be screwed directly to the housing of the flour mills. This elastic bedding is used in multiple hawos models and noticeably reduces grinding noises.
Even the smallest hawos mill delivers top performance. We build powerful motors with an output of at least 360 watts. You can compare the mill types in this performance class on the last pages.
The strong flaunt their colours!
The larger hawos models grind using 600-watt industrial motors making them ideal for large families and cooking courses. As the largest hawos flour mill, Pegasus delivers even more power (2 levels of motorisation) and is ideal for use in natural food stores, large kitchens, small bakeries etc.
Protection built in
The high-quality protective switches found in hawos flour mills showcase that for us quality comes down to the finest of details. While visually it is an On/Off switch, it also serves as an intelligent electric circuit breaker that switches the mill off should the stones get blocked for approximately 20 seconds, thereby protecting your motor and stones.
Grain has been a staple of the human diet for thousands of years. Wonderfully simple and imaginative dishes created from buckwheat, spelt, barley, oats, millet, corn, rice, rye and wheat continue to captivate us today.
Cereal grain contains almost all nutrients and building blocks that are essential to our bodies. It is rich in vitamins, minerals, proteins, unsaturated fatty acids and fibers.
Commercially available white flour is processed to ensure a long shelf life – at the expense of the kernel’s vital ingredient – ents. It only contains a tasteless, odorless extract from the grain known as endosperm.
Though whole meal flour contains all parts of the kernel, vitamins, vital nutrients and flavor’s deteriorate shortly after milling. After a few days, a grated apple or harvested lettuce is no longer suitable for consumption, yet we cannot visually see the same process with grains.
Our suggestion: Take a variety of grains home with you and mill them yourself! You can mill your own flour as needed and process it right away. Our hawos mills are designed to provide you with an excellent result – every time.
Once you smell the freshly milled flour and taste the power of its kernel in your culinary creations, you’ll know what we mean.
The modern day hectic lifestyle, spurs each one of us to chase
bigger dreams and higher goals. It is prudent to take a step back to
re-calibrate where we stand and what small changes can be brought about in our
daily life style to enhance our life quality.
Someone has correctly pointed out that “more important than
years in our life, is life in our years”. There are many small changes that one
can bring about and one such change is consciously choosing to make whole
grains part of our daily diet.
Almost everyone knows that eating natural and healthy is the
right thing to do, however when it comes to picking the food from the shelf, it’s
the subconscious mind that comes into play or the last happening ad seen that
sweeps away our power to make logical decisions. Awareness is the first step
towards making the right choices and taking informed decisions.
So what is a whole grain?
All grains in their natural form have three parts- BRAN, GERM and ENDOSPERM and they occur in a certain proportion naturally. When all three parts of the grain are available in the same proportion in the grain as it was growing in the field it is called a whole grain. Needless to say it is in its most natural form readily available for consumption.
What is a refined grain?
Refined grain is the term used to refer to grains that are not
whole, i.e. one or more of the 3 key parts is missing (Bran, Germ and
Endosperm). This not only reduces the nutrient contents of the food that we eat
but also leads to disastrous and widespread nutrition deficiency diseases like
Pellagra and Beriberi. So came an influx of products which are fortified/
enriched with nutrients, however only a few do get added and that to in
proportions that are different from the original proportion present in the
grains naturally.
To place in short a refined grain is a mere shadow of the original grain form. As much as ¼ of the proteins and anywhere from ½ to 2/3rd or more of the score of nutrients are lost due to the refining process. This not only leads to poor nutrient availability in the food we eat, but also leads to a deficiencies diseases.
The chart below compares whole wheat flour to refined wheat flour and enriched wheat flour. You can see the vast difference in essential nutrients.
The natural and best way to address this is to consciously look for the words “WHOLE GRAIN” in the products that we buy, be it in the form of wheat flour that we buy or ready to eat food that we purchase.
The best alternative is to mill your own grains at home. This
not only ensures that we are absolutely in know of what we eat, but also
provides us the flexibility of deciding what type and proportion of blended
flour we get to choose from. Obviously there is nothing like a freshly grounded
flour at home that keeps our food naturally nutritive but also enhances the
taste of our breads and bakery.
A smart and trendy way to do this is to mill your whole grains
fresh through hAWos mills. This top mill brand from Germany,
besides a legacy to great technology also packed with smart modern looks,
is light weight, and super easy to operate, providing you the option to make a
smarter conscious choice of a healthier lifestyle.
