Hey all,
I just scored a free corona mill, and many people here have modified the end of the screw by threading it with a die. This allows a nut to be screwed down on the grinding plate and lessening the wobble.
I bought a tap and die set, and after multiple attempts, I simply cannot get it started. The die doesn't even scratch the cast iron.
The instructable on this topic states using a 1/2" die, and but I have not had any luck.
So the question: Is this mod necessary? I'm a Biab brewer, so my crush will be fine... Will the pressure of the grains being extruded keep it from wobbling and affecting the crush?
