But it does work, but I think it would be a little faster if it was more aggressive.

The two knobs that stick out rotate within the frame. They are locked in place with a set screw to keep them from rotating after you set the gap. Inside those knobs, there is a hole machined in .035 off center with a bushing pressed inside of it for the roller to rotate. I will see if I have any...

I finished up the hopper last night. I just used some scrap plywood that I had left over from another project. Overall I am very happy with this project.

It does. The knobs that stick out are the eccentrics. They are simple to make. You just machine the bore for the bushing off center. Then the knobs rotate in the frame itself. The long bolts that stick out are used as a set screw to keep the knobs in place once the gap is set allowing the roller...

The knurling is done with knurling rollers on a lathe.

All the materials used in the mill was scrap that I found at work. I did all the machining on free time. The rollers are adjustable. They are 6" 1.500" 1018 barstock that I knurled and turned down on a lathe. The frame is .500" aluminum plate. As far as price, it didn't cost me anything...

Just finished up the machining on my DIY grain mill. I just need to get a base and hopper made for it now. Hopefully, I will get some free time this weekend and can finish it up!

I would run copper pipe inside the PVC and run your beer lines in the copper. That is how I ran my tower and used spray foam to insulate.

By any chance you think a 1/6 barrel and a ball lock will fit?

I too thought about purchasing the same fridge. Can you share any pics with us?

I have spent some time looking through posts on here. I am wanting to do a kegerator conversion that will hold 2 1/6 kegs. I don't always have time to brew to fill ball locks, but I do usually find time to drink so I would like the ability to have 2 ball locks or 2 1/6 kegs or a combination of...

I just made a 4 gallon batch of this. I used the following recipe: 6 cans of Walmart frozen concentrate lemonade 2 cans of Walmart frozen concentrate limeade 6 pounds sugar 1 pack champagne yeast ec118 Rehydrated and pitched the yeast. S.G. 1.170 @ 80* my S.G. Seems kind of high!? is this...

That is more what I had in mind. I was just wondering if anyone had done this before. And if they could share some pictures to help give me some ideas to get started on this.

I have been throwing around the idea of turning the TAD system into a small keggerator with a faucet going through the door. I have seen a ton of posts on here from the past, but haven't seen anything close to what I was thinking. Can this even be done or am I wasting my time? Ideally, I would...

Hey, sorry to bring up such an old thread, but did you ever figure anything out on your idea to use a TAD bottle as a keg with a remote tap? I too have been thinking about trying to figure out something the same way. Thanks
