Grinder That Was Used To Grind Wheat

Pre-celiac disease, I had a years supply of wheat stored. I gave it all away to church members whan I was diagnosed. One thing I have not been able to part with is my electric wheat grinder. It is a Whisper Mill, and I paid $200 for it. I used it A LOT to grind wheat as I was really into baking my own bread with freshly ground whole wheat flour. In retrospect that seems like such a stupid idea. :rolleyes:

My question is this: do you think I could ever get my grinder clean enough to use it for gluten-free grains? It cannot be diassembled. I can clean the chute out with a toothbrush and then run a boatload of cheap rice through it to try to slough off any gluten grains that are remaining. I am having SUCH a hard time getting rid of it since it was so expensive. I have not used it, but I can't let it go. I think the answer is probably no, but I am hoping tha tone of you has a gluten-free magic wand for me.

Thoughts?

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to clean it well enough to be safe. However, you could list it on eBay and then put that money into getting a new one.

      @Healthierbody2026, as I said above, there is not a separate forum within this community for NCGS people and I do not know of one anywhere else. You sound uncertain whether your physician ordered blood tests for celiac disease or for diabetes. Do you have access online to your medical records and test results?

      There is not a distinct section in this particular online resource and community devoted to those with NCGS. And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online.

And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online. But your question makes me think celiac.com might entertain the idea of starting a forum within our community for that purpose. I should explain that celiac.com is divided into a number of separate forums, each devoted to a different topic or concern within the gluten intolerant/gluten sensitive population. Having said that, the main is on those with celiac disease (or their support systems) rather than those with NCGS because it has more serious long-term health implications. I see. Can you elaborate on how you were tested to arrive at this diagnosis?
