I didn't read through the whole thread, but how are you guys not recovering the cost of your mill by buying grain in bulk?
Buying 2 row in bulk is almost half the cost of buying it by the pound at my LHBS (1.04/lb in bulk, 1.95/lb by the pound). So a savings of 89 cents per pound, multiplied by an average of 10lbs per 5 gallon batch is $8.90 in savings. My cereal killer mill was $100, so I will have recovered the cost in 11 batches or so.
