The homeschoolers thing was kind of a joke- grain mills were/are a bit of a fad with some homeschooling circles, that's all.

Can I grind dried beans in it to make bean flour instead of using a grain mill? Also, why would homeschoolers have a grain mill as a opposed to nonhomeschoolers?

Some very good ideas. I always save the water from vegetables that I cook. It's great for making soup or gravy. Why pour all those good nutrients down the drain? Interesting article.

When we refrigerate a batch it thickens to that consistency, then we add more water when we reheat it (usually a bowl at a time). A batch of soup lasts forever that way, and freezes well too.
