FLAKE LOVERS - Flaker by Wolfgang Mock

Made in Germany.  FREE SHIPPING

Fresh flakes are not only healthier but also with much more flavor than flakes "out of the bag". Imagine every day your own cereal with full nutritional value: Fresh flakes of different grains and oilseeds.

Wolfgang Mock’s latest creation sets a new standard in design, price and performance for freshly rolled oats and more. The flaker housing is made from the same renewable Arboblend® material used for the Mockmill 10 and 200 grain mill housings. Arboblend® is a high impact thermoplastic made of lignins from plant fiber that can be cast into a mold just as easily as plastic. Lignin is a waste product in the paper industry. This means that large quantities can be produced inexpensively and sustainably. It also has a significantly higher quality than plastic in terms of its visual and haptic appeal.

Nutritional benefits of oats – Oats are loaded with important vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. They’re also high in fiber and protein compared to other grains. Half a cup of dry oats contains:

• Manganese: 191% of the RDI
• Phosphorus: 41% of the RDI
• Magnesium: 34% of the RDI
• Copper: 24% of the RDI
• Iron: 20% of the RDI
• Zinc: 20% of the RDI
• Folate: 11% of the RDI
• Vitamin B1 (thiamin): 39% of the RDI
• Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid): 10% of the RDI
• Smaller amounts of calcium, potassium, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) and vitamin B3 (niacin)

Reasonably quiet
The flaking happens relatively quietly. The two stainless steel rollers crush grain and seeds with ease. You can have a conversation next to it. In operation, the volume is around 60 dB.

What ingredients can be crushed?
Almost all types of grain: oats, spelt, rye, einkorn, emmer. All wheat varieties. Rice and millet can be crushed, but are more likely to be powdered (as they are very dry). So called pseudo-cereals such as buckwheat and quinoa and most oilseeds such as flaxseeds, sunflower seeds, sesame, hemp seeds, etc.
Incidentally, it is very important to crush flaxseed before consumption, as only then can the body process the valuable nutrients (e.g. omega-3 fatty acids). The flaxseed husk is simply too hard for the digestive system to break it down on its own.

And which ones CANNOT be crushed?
Corn (too big), pumpkin seeds (too big), nuts like almonds, peanuts, cashews (too oily), coffee, legumes (too big).
