I can't speak to the torque requirements. I did mention to my friend that finding a motor that could run slow and put up with the milling was very difficult. I've milled with it twice so far and both times it worked well, with no struggling. I usually start my mill before dumping the grain in...
It's bound to happen at some point. People are just people.
We've offered suggestions and nothing works, so I'm assuming this is just a way to complain.
