Grinding Grains [Video Recipe]
Grind fresh whole grains and legumes, which are packed with nutrients, to turn them into healthy, whole grain flour. Have you ever made flour in your Blendtec?

We are working to make this guide available on our site by the end of the week. Just back on our blog to see it.
Have you made the grinding guide available on your site yet? When I purchased a Blendtec (in 2008) it came with the Lifestyles Recipe Book and from what I can tell, there’s no grinding guide inside- just general recommendations. I have both the Twister and the WildSide, but I use the Twister to grind (for cloudiness issues) and my flour (3 cups berries, one cycle on 5 -then another on 9) isn’t very fine. I hope that the information in the grinding guide will help me to figure out how to get better results.
Hi Amy,
You do not necessarily need a separate jar for dry grinding. Many people prefer to have a separate jar, as dry grinding can cloud your jar, but this doesn’t affect the integrity of it, it’s just cosmetic. We do have a grinding guide available in our Fresh Blends Recipe Book, on pages 124-125, but this has given my an idea of making the guide available on our site. Thanks!
I would like to try grinding wheat to make whole wheat flour. I only have one wild side jar. Do I need to purchase a seep rate jar to use strictly for wheat grinding? If used often to grind will it still stay sharp? Is there a grinding guide available somewhere? Thanks!
I feel like my Blendtec ends up having grains be in the corners rather than swirling around to be ground finer. I believe I have a regular Four Side jar. Any tips on keeping things whirring around rather than ending up sitting in corers?
