I've had all the ones on sale in the US except the Diamant. After using all them them for a while, my STRONG recommendation is that if you care about being able to hand-crank it, get a Country Living Grain Mill. That doesn't limit you to only hand cranking the CLGM, I electrified mine. The cheaper ones are a false economy. The Victorio Deluxe, Wondermill Jr. etc all produce really inferior flour to the CLGM and often are harder/more tiring to use as well. Answer from williaty on reddit.com

Fresher tastes so much better, and nothing is fresher than what comes from your own grain grinder, made minutes before becoming the best-tasting breads, cakes and cereals you’ve ever made. At PHG we actually use the flour mills, wheat grinders, oat flakers, both hand operated and electric, that we offer.

hand crank grain mill for spices?
I’d use a burr hand grinder, like for coffee beans. Like $12 on Amazon and doesn’t require being bolted to the counter. More on reddit.com

Manual Grain Mill/Grinder Recommendations?
The Country Living mills are super pricy but nice. The difference between these and lower end mills is obvious when you use them. They’re easier to turn and they can range from cracked grain to cake flour fine. I’ve heard good things about the Wondermill Jr, and they can be easily rigged to a bicycle. I haven’t used one, but they’re about half way between the lower end mills and the Country Living mills on the price scale and widely liked. I’ve got a Roots and Branches deluxe mill and the optional motor. I’m happy with it for what I paid. The motor is definitely a nice add on for regular use. If necessary I’m pretty confident I could rig it to a bicycle. It will grind flour fine enough for bread but I wouldn’t want to bake a fine cake with it. Eventually I’ll probably invest in a Country Living mill, but this one has served me well for my use and it’ll be a fine backup. More on reddit.com

Best Manual Hand Crank Grain Mill Choices versus Budget
August 30, 2025 - However, given one’s budget, I would not hesitate to purchase this model hand grain mill. Here’s what one reviewer said… · Nicely built one-piece feed funnel. No cracks between sheet metal parts where grain can stick. Very secure clamp for bolting to the table. Option to bolt directly to table without clamp. Good quality flour from stone burrs, two passes. The crank turns smoothly and feels as if it will last.

Millstone - Wikipedia
1 week ago - A device for adjusting the distance between the millstones (the anille) also appeared, enabling grinding quality to be controlled (1st century B.C.), and radii cut into the millstone could accentuate the natural abrasiveness of the stone. Later developments, such as the installation of the double lever or the use of a crank fixed to the center of the millstone (14th - 15th centuries), meant that this type of hand mill was used in the countryside until the 20th century.
