I recently bought this one for €40 and it seems to do a good job once it's been tweaked a little bit: http://www.homebrewwest.ie/grain-mill-1546-p.asp

LordEoin, did you hook a drill or motor up to it or anything?

LordEoin

Yes. I fully intended to hand crank it, but after about 10 minutes i attached a drill.
Just remove the handle and replace the fitting with a standard bolt(M8 I think), then use a drill and socket.

Does this mill give quality results or does the twin roller type always come out on top?

The price in HBW is tempting

LordEoin

Twin roller will give a very uniform result and can be fine tuned more.
Corona style take a bit more trial and error to hit the fine line between whole grains and flour.
