Marcato's recently updated Marga Mulino flaker has been on the market for several years, and is one of the better-known flakers on the market. Marcato describes it as a flour mill as well, but in our view it really isn't practical at all as a flour mill because the effort level is very high, the process is slow (requiring multiple re-grinds), and the flour produced is very coarse. We can recommend it as a grain grinder only if your requirement is for a coarse meal texture, not flour—and even then, in our opinion there are much better choices for meal or flour.
What we can recommend the Marga for, is flaking grain. The six-position adjustability of its roller gap lets you select a setting perfect for your flaking needs, and the Marga maintains consistency of flake thickness and size as well as, or better than, any home flaker we've seen. To speed up the process, we offer this motor attachment for the Marcato flaker.
The frame of the Marcato Marga Mulino is heavy duty chromed steel and the rollers are anodized alloy. Hopper capacity is 14 oz. (based on oats), and the Marga flaker has a ten year manufacturer's warranty.
Whether baked, cooked or raw, food tastes soooo much better when it's fresh—and oats are no exception! Our customers use their grain flakers more to make fresh oatmeal from oat groats than for any other use, and love the delicious difference they get with just-rolled.

“I am beyond pleased with this flaker. I've been using it to flake Kamut and oats. They come out perfect. It can flake and also make coarse cereal. I’m so happy I made this purchase and want everyone to have one. Once you flake your own cereal, you cannot go back to store-bought.”
– Angela A., FL
A variety of other grains can be flaked with the Marga flaker, including wheat, rye, barley and millet, with a little preparation. These grains are normally dry and hard. To soften them, hold them under running water briefly in a strainer. Then spread the grains on a cloth or towel to let them dry over night or for at least 3-4 hours. This time will vary depending on the grain used, but a little experimentation will help optimize the process. The softened grain will flatten nicely into flakes. At the same time this contact with water starts an enzymatic process which makes it easier for your metabolism to assimilate the minerals in the grain.
The Marga has a low discharge height, and the clear plastic tray shown in the video is not included. The motor drive in the video also is not included.

Motor for Marcato Marga Mulino Flaker
Rating:80%Attach this motor to your Marcato Marga Mulino Flaker to speed up the process of flaking oat groats. This motor is compatible with Marcato flakers that have a stainless steel output chute, and the model that has a clear collection bin. The motor is not compatible with the old-style flakers that have a white plastic collection bin.
Note: The motor attachment works on the Marcato grain flaker as well as on Marcato pasta makers. The attachment says "Pastadrive" on it, but it works just as well on the flaker.
