Why use a SCHNITZER stone mill?
While mills made from homogenous natural stone or steel burrs will blunt in time, the opposite happens in millstones made from hard basalt (Naxos) and magnesite, or corundum in ceramic, because new grinding edges of the hard basalt or the corundum are continually exposed. In this way the stones adjust to each other, and performance and flour texture improve with use. The wear in this process is extremely small and the residue contains trace elements considered beneficial to the prevention of heart attack.
