What is a "mill"?
A mill is a machine used for grinding or crushing solid materials into smaller particles or powders. It typically consists of a rotating cylindrical container or chamber with a grinding mechanism inside, such as blades, burrs, or stones, that crushes the material as it rotates. Mills come in various types and sizes, including grain mills for grinding grains into flour, pepper mills for grinding peppercorns, coffee mills for grinding coffee beans, and spice mills for grinding spices.
