Right the time has come to invest some cash on a grain mill. Been borrowing a mill and using pre-crushed for too long so hit me up with some recommendations. As it stands I'm thinking the bulldog one on special at homebrew west for 125 plus a free 25kg bag of malt. Any other suggestions welcome please. Cheers.

Ive the bulldog mill bought from the Uk and almost 14 batches gone through it in the past year. haven't had to change the roller spacing in that time and im hitting 83% mash efficiency with it. With the price of the bag of grain your getting the mill for €100 which is a really good deal on a solid crusher. I'd highly recommend it.

I've been borrowing a friends mill regularly and have been on the lookout for my own.

This deal was too good to pass up. the Mill, the base, a bucket and 25kg of malt for €125.  :o

I just ordered it and applied their 10% code and the NHC 5% code and made a complete steal!

Balls, I missed the 10% code and only used the 5% code for NHC  :(

I wonder if I can cancel and reorder?

Gah, no way on the site to cancel the order. No matter, it's a great deal even without the 10% extra off.

Is it Pilsner malt?
Viking Pale, Pilsner or Wheat. I went with Pale. Never used it before either.

I got the double discount  - fantastic value - now need to go on the recipe search.

It's worth taking a read through this forum post regarding the mill assembly. Seems they're are some issues with the quality of the screws
