(background info) I had to take apart my 20 year old Corona to thread a new hole in the wormscrew part that the handle attaches to. The original bolt that held the handle on sheared off. I used a tap to thread for a 7/16" grade 8 bolt. Worked great, but now had to disassemble everything to clean after getting metal shavings everywhere... I removed the dreaded cotter pin which I never had problems with before and then JB Welded it back but did not get it quite lined up with the stationary plate. A HBT forum post said they did the same but used a hammer to knock the JB Weld off to re-do it...turns out my JB Weld was stronger than the plate..dang. (/end background info)
So now I'm in the market for a new mill. My question is whether other folks have upgraded from Coronas and never been happier or wished they hadn't bothered?
I strictly do BIAB, 2.5-3 gallon stovetop batches. I don't mill more than 10 lbs of grain at a time. Cereal Killer is on sale right now. Maltmill? ...Barley Crusher???
