want to buy a grain mill. what should i look for?? seen them from $40 up $300. what are the differences???
^^^^^ +1 to the above post I love my barley crusher !!! one note if you get this one and motorize it with a drill, make sure the chuck dosen't slip or you'll tear up the shank. this holds true for any mill not just this one. also i find hand cranking it gives a better crush IMHO.
I have a barley crusher and it doesn't have any issues. It's about $100 for one. I don't have any complaints. With a drill I believe it does about 6 lbs of grains per min. I just got a drill from home depot for $40. So for the whole set up it was about $150. I've had that mill for about 3-4 years and it's finally at the end of its life. But I'm getting another Barley Crusher to replace it.

Anything less, like a corona mill, won't give a great crush.
