I have had a malt mill for awhile and I'm planning to motorize it. I pulled a 1/4 horsepower motor out of an old dryer that turns at 1725 rpm. I have been reading that these malt mills work best in the 300 rpm range so I need some sort of reduction. Where is a good place to get pulleys? The closest I could find at Lowes or Home Depot would be replacement wheels for lawnmowers that have a nice groove with the "tire" removed. I thought maybe a piece from an old sewing machine but I'm not sure where to look. Any help is appreciated.
