If you're BIABing, crank it down. Tannins are more a factor of PH and temperature than the condition of the husks.

This. If you're sparging very thin with high temps (over 180ish) the PH is very alkaline and you run risk of tannins.

Good to know. Probably the only thing that concerns me about using this mill.

After I've found a great setting for the crush, a great brew day, and everyone's assurances, i'm definitely a happy camper.

i'm a firm believer that a Corona-style mill can be every bit as effective as a roller-style mill. Many brewers use them for many years and make great beers. Heck, even my crush isn't too dissimilar from that of roller mills when it's dialed-in properly.

for the people that have drills on your mill, how fast are you running the drill?
I just got a bolt that fits and used my cordless drill the first time which runs pretty slow compared to my larger drill. the second time my drill was about dead so i used the larger drill and was worried about running it to fast so I tried to keep it just moving with the veriable trigger. wasn't much of a problem but just wondering if i could just hit it and let her rip. Not sure if that would mess with my grind or the mill.

I use a 3/8" Dewalt; I find that my crush is more consistent the slower that I run the drill.

Recipes 

I use a 3/8" B&D and while I don't think it likes it, I run it slow as I can. I wish it had the VSR dial that I could lock in. It's VSR but doesn't lock other than full-speed. Eventually I want a 1/2" with the VSR dial/lock so I can mount it on something and walk away.
