having trouble getting my mill to keep crushing. If I set the gap tight with a credit card it doesn't want to pull in any grain. the free spinning second roller just won't move. It seems not enough of the grain can get between the rollers to bite into the unpowered roller to get it to turn.
I have to set my gap coarse like a HBS store to do my first run. Then I can tighten up the gap for a second run or even a third run.
Is this normal or are my rollers perhaps out of alignment or something like that?
I guess a better crusher would have the second roller gear driven off the first one so it's forced to roll and crush.
