Grain Mill
thebigbaker:
I'm looking to add a grain mill to my set up so that I can start buying bags of grain. I'm currently doing 3 gallon batches and will eventually start doing 5 gallon batches. Any suggestions on what grain mill to get? Thanks!

I have the JSP Maltmill that I've used for about 100 batches so far. It performs well and hasn't failed me yet (KOW). It comes highly recommended.
Slowbrew:
Here's my disclaimer: Everyone who has a mill, likes their mill.
I have a Barley Crusher and have motorized it and I have been very satisfied with it. I do around 16 batches a year and not had any problems with it (that I didn't cause). I can run 13 lbs through in less than 5 minutes. Very good mill for the cost in a low volume shop.
Monster mills get very good reviews and are beefier than the Barley Crusher if you need to do a lot of volume. They are a good option if speed is a requirement. I believe you have to build your own chute with some versions.
As I said though people generally like the mill they have.

I have a Barley Crusher that I use with a drill and it works great. It fits perfectly on top of one of my old buckets.

I use one of those also...the adjustable version. I've been using it for maybe 12 years, and the friend who co owns it and I have run well over 700 batches of grain through it. Still works great.
