Looking to spend ~$400 and need help deciding between the two grain mills below-
FWIW- My previous mill experience was with a borrowed Barley Crusher from a coworker and it definitely had the spinning, lack of grabbing grain problem, so the bar was set pretty low.
The two options I am considering-
A geared 3 roller monster mill (just the base) with a corded Milwaukee drill to drive it ~$350
A 3 roller MaltMuncher mill with a motor ~$360
I like the idea of a motorized mill, but I like the American-made aspect of the Monster Mill. The Monster Mill would just be the base so I could built a MDF/wooden hopper for it and possibly motorize it down the road if I wanted a more permanent setup. Thoughts? Other options worth considering?
