In short, just add the grains to a strong blender like a Vitamix or Blendtec in batches of 1-2 cups until you’ve ground everything into a fine powder. How much you place in the blender depends upon the size and capacity of the blender pitcher, but the grains should at least cover the blades of the blender to effectively pulverize your grains into flour. Otherwise, the grains will just blow around the pitcher.

Before you hit the “start” button, cover the top of your blender with a dish towel to catch any residual powder. Then, turn the blender to the highest setting. It takes our blender 30-45 seconds to grind grains into a usable fine flour.

Once the grains are milled, combine them in a large bowl along with any store-bought flours you decide to use, and stir until everything is uniformly combined. Transfer the flour to an airtight container.
