Grain Mill.

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

Yeah I saw that. I'm tempted to get this but wondering how it held up after the initial problems, if any of the lads who have it a while would let us know. Also wondering how it compares to the Blue Bollix one that NHC have.

I pulled the trigger on this and it arrived today. First impressions are positive. The mill feels solid and its handy to have it already mounted. One thing I did notice is that the metal rollers had splinters on them. I turned the mill upside down and pressed the Styrofoam packaging against the rollers and turned them slowly. That seems to have gotten rid of the loose pieces. Just worth keeping an eye on them if you get one. I haven't had a chance to put it through its paces yet but will update this when I do.

Always a good idea with any new mill to run a kilo through and tip it, it will get rid of any swarf or oils.
You won't know yourself with fresh grain

I have some shitty old grain that will do just the job

we all do

Got it this morning as well   throw extra few things on top of that for free delivery , -10% and -5% off and using my points it was a real steal

Just ordered one myself.  Been meaning to get one of these for the past year.  Did what you did Dracusse - threw on the extras, availed of the Homebrew Freebie plus the 10% and the 5%.  Now I just need to explain to the wife how good of a deal it was and that I couldn't leave it at that price.

Just tell her how much you saved, I'm deaf in one ear from that about shoes and handbags

[mick02]

When my wife tell me that she saved €25 on a jacket I tell her that she should have bought 4 of them that way we would have saved €100, basic economics really

I used this mill on Saturday and I was very impressed. Nice big hopper on it and milled through the grain without any issues.

Very happy with my purchase.
