At the end of the 19th century, in the center of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in the Hungarian part of the former region Barny, in Duboševica in the period from 1885 to 1890 comes to the construction of the steam mill.At the time of construction of grain processing technology implemented in a steam mill was the culmination of the technology industry of Austro-Hungarian monarchy.Engineers and craftsmen from the Austro – Hungarian Monarchy who built the mill, gave the mill the name “Dalyok”.After the completion of the construction, probably due to red facade, the local residents, the mill calls “Red Mill” and that name remained to this day.Building and original equipment efficiently operates over 125 years. Transfer drive is via a leather belt. Industrial-made components of the after 125 years in perfect condition, their simplicity and robustness does not allow failures. According to the data available across Europe there is not a similar production facility such a size and capacity, and preservation of technological assembly which is in operation and has the ability to produce of the flour. Similar drives across Europe are mostly destroyed, while a small number has been converted into museums.This technology is unique in Europe, and primary goal, through the Red mill project, is to preserve it in its original form to the smallest details and to continue manufacturing according to the original technological process, and to offer a new “old” product to the market.
In this predominantly wooden maze in seamlessly connected row are located in the battery for breaking the grain, separating the bran, polishing and wetting grains, batteries for grinding and processing flour, batteries for the production of semolina and chambers for resting and aging flour with a sieve of raw silk, all linked leather belt as turning reels with only one drive.

There are plenty of old mills in Europe. A significant part has been restored and conserved. They are used to preserve historical heritage and tradition, and are used as museums to meet new generations with old technologies and the old way of life.There are smaller mills (mostly waterborne) which still produce today, but small, small-scale plants. We have conducted a study that found that throughout Europe, there is no similar complexity with that size and degree of preservation of the technology that can produce.
This method of production of flour, in the history of grain processing technology is considered the best way of processing, in which the minimal affects on the natural composition of the grain. This processing method requires a lot of time and increased energy consumption, this is due to the development of new technologies, raise competitiveness and cost reductions at the beginning of the 19th century, the industrial production of the same abandoned and adopted the new technological solutions.
Technological circuit has two batteries of stone grinding grain. A special feature of this method of processing with all known that the stones podrijeklom from France at the beginning of the 19th century, the so-called Blue Stone, who at grinding flour gives a special flavor other than flour from other mills. Despite the continuous operation of 125 years, stones and still has a sufficient thickness, if a necessary, periodically reworked, so-called. Sharpening process, semi-automatic tool that has been implemented into operation.
Upon completion of milling the flour is sifted in a special and unique screens, made of raw silk. There are four granulation sieving depending on the density of weaving silk. This process further improves the quality of flour. Easy rotation shakes even the heap flour and allows drying in a natural way.

For a successful product placement on the European market it is necessary to meet a number of conditions. To fulfill these conditions and to produce high-quality products, it is planned to build additional auxiliary production facilities, right next to the mill facility.
