    Any feedback on the Captain Crush Grain Mill?

    Update: After another 5 batches I had increasingly more frustrating free-spinning issues. The last beer I made took me 45 mins to grind ~30 lbs of grain with repeated dumping/up-ending hand-spinning the rollers and refilling. It was painful. I called NB, and they promptly issued me an...

    Help Me clone 21st Amendment Toaster Pastry India Red

    On their Back-in-Black IPA stats they list Rahr Pale Malt so I'm betting it's that instead of Maris Otter or GP

    Help Me clone 21st Amendment Toaster Pastry India Red

    I just saw a clone recipe with German Red X malt at 19% of the malt bill.

    62% efficiency from the mash. Not my best, by any stretch.

    Are you defining the "last setting" as the smallest or largest? It would be easier to see a picture... I guess

    Any feedback on the Captain Crush Grain Mill?

    Got my new screws from NB and installed them. When using my hand to free spin the third roller I noticed that it would catch at the same point in rotation and then free up indicating bad alignment. Once installing the new set screws and making sure all the knobs were symmetric with bilaterally...

    Any feedback on the Captain Crush Grain Mill?

    Hi - am currently trouble--shooting my CC. I contacted NB and their customer service resolved to send me 4 new set screws and told me not to over tighten them and take it apart and clean the whole thing. Please, share the setting you currently are using on your CC that gave you 78% efficiency...

    @WWJPD Which parts did you use to build the inline oxygenator besides the 1/2" NPT oxygenation stone? That looks awesome and could easily be modified to perform kettle souring by switching to a CO2 charger to bubble C02 to purge oxygen.
