About Scott Brownfield

I'm 62 years old and have been retired for 6 years. I spent my working career in the wholesale food distribution business delivering specialty food products to retail grocery stores and all kinds of food service customers. I love all things food -especially bread baking. I took it up as a hobby a little over two years ago and now prefer to bake sourdough bread - but any cooking or baking will do. I also have a German Baking Apprentice 2nd Class named Lucy, who just turned 10 year old. She is really the one who keeps me on track in the kitchen. - Happy Baking

Our Experience: Our baking has really changed for the better with the new WonderMill we used for the Grain Mill Wagon Challenge. Before, we would only use 10-20% whole grain in our baking since milling grain berries in a coffee mill was tedious, took forever and yielded dubious results. But now, milling any grain we use in our baking is as easy as pie and pie crust made with 50% whole grains are way healthier and tastier than white crusts. In the month or so we have use the WonderMill to mill soft white whole wheat for cookies, cakes, pies, galettes and tortillas and the harder varieties for all kinds of breads including our new favorite 15 grain sourdough and even salted rye cookies. We have even milled popcorn for bread and corn tortillas and beans for Ezekiel Bread. The WonderMill has lived up to all of its claims and then some and we use it nearly every day. It has changed the quality and nutrition of our baking and cooking forever.
