What are the benefits of the Ambassador Mill?
- A fully transparent design : Watch the grain being transformed into flour through the transparent grain hopper and millstone housing, specially designed to create an engaging in-store experience.
- Sidobre granite millstones : Benefit from 50 cm millstones dressed in accordance with the Astrié milling process to produce high-quality flour in a single pass.
- An output tailored to artisan production : Produce up to 19 kg of wholemeal flour per hour or between 12 and 15 kg of sifted flour per hour, depending on the chosen configuration.
- A high-capacity hopper : Load up to 100 kg of wheat into the 140-litre hopper to reduce the need for intervention during production.
- Versatile milling : Process all types of grain and produce different flour grades (T80, T110 and T150) to diversify your production.
- Flour produced in a single pass : Achieve an 80% extraction rate for sifted wheat flour using a 300 µm screen, equivalent to T80 flour.
- Precise settings : Manually adjust the grain flow and the gap between the millstones using a graduated handwheel with reproducible calibration settings.
- Automated operation : Ensure safe production with an automatic shut-off system that stops the mill when the hopper is empty or when the flour bag or bags are full.
- Several types of flour from a single mill : Produce wholemeal flour or combine the mill with a sifter and interchangeable screens to obtain flour types equivalent to T80, T110 or T150.
- Easy day-to-day use : Move the mill more easily using its four fully locking swivel castors.
- Designed for integration into retail spaces : Install the mill in your shop thanks to its compact footprint—1 m² for the mill alone or 3 m² with the sifter—noise-reducing panels and a design suitable for use around customers.
How the mill works
Thanks to a spring-mounted oscillating millstone system, the grain is gently rolled between the stones rather than crushed. Milling and sifting are completed in a single pass.
The Astrié process incorporates the germ into the flour while preserving, as much as possible, the starch–gluten bonds, the protein structure and the grain’s nutritional qualities.
The resulting flour is supple, easy to work with, more nutritious and easier for your customers to digest. Astréïa flour faithfully reflects the characteristics of the grain used: a true expression of its terroir!
