Anybody have this (brand) Corona mill?

I tried a bunch of searches but could not find out anything about this specific brand of Corona style mill.

I was able to get on with free shipping but the Victoria and the cheap Tommy's versions were both going to be more expensive with shipping so I snagged it.

Does anybody have one of these and can say it is workable?

Yea that is the same old same old...should work fine! Probobly only one or two factories making these things in china. You'll be good.

Grind your corn or coffee... Interesting hadn't thought about grinding coffee with mine.

I actually looked it up once, and there at least 6 different Chinese OEMs making these things. Quality and detail varies, but they all work, AFAIK.

I did a lot of work on mine trying to get the plates more parallel, but in the end decided that the grain sort of self centers the plates while grinding. Works, as it's not too difficult to dial in up to 80% extraction efficiency with no stuck sparges.

Thanks!

I was hoping I didn't find the one out of 6 that doesn't work....sometimes I'm lucky like that.
