Mill for Chickpeas

By Moinhos Vieira – technical team

Moinhos Vieira manufactures industrial hammer mills for grinding chickpeas, serving everything from small operations to large-scale industrial processes.

Our equipment is successfully used for the particle size reduction of chickpeas, allowing different levels of grinding according to the needs of each process.

With extensive experience in industrial grinding, we carry out practical tests with chickpeas to evaluate equipment performance and help select the most suitable solution for each application.

About chickpeas grinding

Chickpea flour is very popular in Middle Eastern and Indian cuisine used in dishes such as falafel, hummus, socca, farinata, papadums and pakoras. It is also a wonderful ingredient for gluten-free baking.

Chickpea Flour also works well in cakes or quick breads with strong flavors like chocolate and pumpkin. This flour can be used to thicken soups and sauces, it can replace up to 25% of the flour in your cooking.
