    Hey fellas. I'm new to brewing and started with all grain brewing. Im looking to buy a grain mill but didnt want to spend $150.00 for it. Can anyone give me a cheap good set up that will give me a great grind? I brewed my first batch of irish stout yesterday and the SG came out low could that be cause if uncruahed grains?

    i have an adventures in home brewing cereal killer $89.00 & free shipping, which is now selling for $10.00 more that has served me well.

    or you may consider a corona mill.

    all depends on what knid of crush you are looking for.

    I had efficiency problems due to crush from my lhbs. Picked up a cheap corona and found out about rice hulls. It helped immensely.

    I just bought a 2 roller barley crusher and used it for the first time today. I was getting terrible efficiency when I had my LHBS mill the grain. Today my preboil gravity was dead on. I'm very happy with the BC.
