Please understand this is only a guide. The output will vary depending on the size of your grain (or beans), the fineness of the grind, etc. But this should give you a starting point to know about how much grain to grind, so you don’t end up several cups short, or with a whole bowlful left over!
For approximately 1 c. flour, grind:
| 1/2 c.2/3 c.1/2 c.5/8 c.
2/3 c. 2/3 c. 2/3 c. 1/2 c. 1-1/3 c. 2/3 c. 3/4 c. 1/2 c. 2/3 c. 1/2 c. |

*My Nutri-mill really struggled with these, because they are so large. Certain types of chickpeas are smaller, though, so you might look for those if you’re planning to grind them.
