A millstone is used to grind up certain plants to make flour and dye. To operate, it needs to be connected to a mechanical power source such as a water wheel or windmill that supplies it with 10 power units. If none is available, a quern can be used instead. Before they can be placed as a building, you must first build the millstone at a Mason's Workshop.

If the power to the millstone is interrupted, any jobs must be requeued when power is returned. Therefore it is best to have uninterrupted power or at least the ability to run it for a long period of time.

For a basic overview of how the different machine parts work and work together, see machinery.
