Faber, I have a Clipper M2B also. With the right screens and the air set right it should do it the first time around. If the wheat is real trashy it might need a couple times. Feeding it slower will help. Do you have an operator's manual. If not , mine shows a #14 top and 1/13 x1/2 or 1/12x1/2 bottom. I don't clean or grind any wheat because of people allergic to the gluten. John
