Did I mess up my new KoMo?
Hey all !
So I am venturing into the world of home milling, having recently purchased a KoMo Classic. So far it's been a great mill, though I am curious to see if anyone has encountered the issue into which I've recently bumped.
I may have brought the stones too close together for a grind, as when I took off the hopper to clean it out a little bit, I noticed that the millstones showed signs of wearing. In effect, they are almost smooth at certain points, as though they have ground each other down. I am curious to learn if this is just normal wear and tear, or if I have royally screwed up and need to get new stones!
Thanks for any and all input

I would just adjust them so they are just touching then back off a click or two and try it and see. I think it would be pretty hard for you to glaze the stones in your first use or two. I just got a the older model Nutrimill Harvest Mill, which I hear is the same as the Fidibus, and parts of the stone look pretty smooth, it still works fine.
