Uh, that is what it seems like.
Had hooked a cordless drill (r.i.p.) to my Corona mill (I don't want to hear about it! Works for me) and it worked well. Until the useless drill finally died. So back to hand cranking. Was originally getting 60% efficiency whether hand cranking or using the drill. One day I tweaked the tightening screw on the plates a bit for the hell of it. 70% efficiency.
Tired of going through cordless drills I bought a corded drill recently because I needed it around the house. Last 2 brews I used it on the drill. Wicked faster than my cordless ever was even not at full bore (variable speed). Last 2 brews were also 75% efficiency!
Does speed have an affect on efficiency?
