Most of the foods that are eaten in Nigeria are made from processed grains. By processing, we mean grains that are ground into powder or paste. Several years ago, these grains were ground using grinding stones or pounded with a pestle in a mortar.
Today, we don’t need to do that anymore because technology has gifted us grain grinding machines. There are several kinds of grain grinding machines on the market. In this post, we will look at them as well as their prices and capacities.
