Milling Malt

I currently own and use the JSP MaltMill.  I've seen others, and this one seems to be pretty good.  It isnt' difficult to do 10 pounds or so for a 5 gallon batch, but I would want to hook it up to a motor/drill if I was doing any more than that.  The nice part is it has 2 rollers about 1 ft. long, so it crushes the grain pretty fast.  I didn't get the adjustable one, because most will say that once they get it adjusted properly, they never change it. 
When I do wheat, I'll mix it with another grain to make it a little easier to crank.

 

The Barley Crusher is a mill as well.  It is a two roller mill, and works well, in my opinion.  There are several choices in mills out there, and to be honest I have never heard anyone complain about any of them.  The BC just seemed to be the most complete package for the price, which is why I went with it.  It is adjustable, but so far, the factory adjustment seems to be about perfect, and I haven't changed it.

 

fantastic!  thank you!  i will be ordering a Barley Crusher as soon as possible!  less flour on the bottom of the kettle!  more consistent grain texture!  more efficient mashes!
i'd be a miller's wife!  :)

 

I'm with norcalnewb, any of these mills work just fine, I've never heard anyone say anything bad about any of them. I have a JSP MaltMill (the adjustable one) with a motor, and I love it.

 

I have the Phil MIll 2:

It was the mill my local brew store had that they let you use for free.  You can rig a power drill to it for faster milling.
