Just acquired an ice crusher/dispenser motor from a GE freezer. Would that be feasible to run a grain mill from?
anyone have an idea how to wire it? It says 115v, so maybe wouldn’t even need a transformer?

Just guessing from my ice maker but I'm guessing the shaft speed is somewhere less than 20 rpm.
Wouldn't even want to hazard a guess as to torque, but at that shaft speed torque doesn't matter ;)

Cheers!

Not to mention a <60 second duty time.
