Not being very experienced with any of this, take it for what it is worth. My wife was kind enough to buy me a mill for Xmas. I used it for the first time a few months ago, and I seemed to get a better result. It could be just in my head, but it seems my OG and preboil numbers were closer to my software calculations. Like I said, it could just be in my head, but I did having another part of the process under my control. Rock On!!!!!!
