Joanne Sawyer asked about german and other hand mills.
I use the country living grain mill ($300-400, I think) and am very happy
with it. Although it's a bit of a misnomer because I mill my daily coffee
in it as well. The only thing it's not great for is nut butter--it does
the job but is not easy to clean. The Zassenhaus grain mill, formerly made
in Germany, is no longer being manufactured.
For nut-butters, the corona or victoria mill (should be $40 or so) works
very well.
I use a #40 screen to sift my flour, get about 85% extraction, and good
loaf volume with my starter.
