[Gristmillers] My Seed Cleaner

Hey Fellows:

Just thought I'd give you a little update.  Yes, John Baily, I will  
probably want to come back to Baton Rouge to
assemble the mill, set the bed stone, etc.  Lou wants to do it here,  
but if we came that way maybe a few other
folks could watch.  Lou and I could come pulling my camper.

I am harvesting and cleaning wheat.  I am using my M2B reconditioned  
seed cleaner to clean the wheat.  This
may sound nutty, but I'm wondering if even after running wheat through  
the cleaner it will have a considerable
amount of dust in/on it.  I haven't ever used it until today so I'm  
just not sure.  It seems like it doesn't get "mill clean"
until I've run it through the machine 2-3 times.  is that normal?

I will grind it with my small Meadows 8" stone table top mill for this  
year.  I am also starting to supply a small
Mormon community that have found us Brethren folks.  Many of them have  
their own tiny grist mills so that will
take the pressure off of me until I get "big bertha" up and going.   
Another trip to B.R., Louisiana will get it working.

Send any info you guys have on experience in cleaning grain,
Faber
