A quern is used to grind up certain plants to make flour and dye. Unlike a millstone, it does not require a power source, using dwarven labor instead. That said, it is slower to produce the milled product unless the miller is moderately strong.

Milling produces seeds from the plants.

Before you can build the quern workshop, you must first build a quern (as in the furniture) at a Mason's workshop.

It is unknown whether extended use will tire the dwarf using it (see screw pump.)
