Who else *luvs* to grind their own grain, no little sissy power drills, all by hand baby?!?!?!? Favorite part of brewing for me . . . . then again, I really enjoy bottling, too. Really.

I just bought a Barley Crusher and tested it out yesterday. I was a bit surprised at how much resistance there was in milling the grain, but it had a very satisfying down-to-earth feel (and sound) to it.
Once I modify my bucket to prevent the crank handle from getting stuck (I apparently have a weird bucket), I'll probably continue to manually mill my grains-- I'm only doing partial mashes at this point, so it will only be 4 lbs. or less of grain per batch.

If you hand crank wheat (which is REALLY, REALLY HARD) you can increase your bust size.

Nah, I hand cranked about 1/2 pound of grain and then got out the drill. I suppose I should try it again. What gap are you hand crankers using?
I'm not man enough to hand crank 26 pounds of grain.
That certainly explains alot! You must LOVE wheat beers!If you hand crank wheat (which is REALLY, REALLY HARD) you can increase your bust size.
You gotta be careful not to crank backwards otherwise they will get smaller.
I also understand its good idea for you ladies to wear a bra, you don't want a titty to get pulled into the mill.
If you hand crank wheat (which is REALLY, REALLY HARD) you can increase your bust size. At least, that's what I told myself when I hand cranked that first (and only) wheat beer I've ever done.
Unfortunately, I'm right-handed, and so I think it only worked on one side.
Seriously, it's kind of a pain, but it's no big deal. It takes like 10 minutes to hand crank 10 pounds of grain. Rye and wheat are harder, but it's still not very difficult.
If this tiny 135 pound girl can do it, you guys certainly can!
I need to figure out a way to mount my BC, though. That's the hardest part-
