oh, errrr. Corona, hows that for ghetto??? Does work though, and around here a corona goes for what en entry level C&S does over at you guys :(


That's nothing. I used to have get up every morning 1/2hr before going to bed and hold each grain up against a brick wall and smash it with my forehead. That was on top of working 28 hours a day and living in a shoe box in the middle of the road.

I've used a Corona mill for a while now with no problems. I just picked up some equipment from a Craigslist ad that included a JSP Maltmill that was about 10years old but had never been used. I've used it once so far but still have to dial it in.

Man, you guys have had it hard. I just crush my grain the easy way. I take the grain and pour it in a line down the driveway and drive over it with my truck. Works great!






Or, I just use my CrankandStein mill.

I get my wife to pour a steady stream of grain down my back and put on some funky house beats... I then do the stripper "ass clap" dance and it comes out crushed to a fine powder.

I put on a chuck norris movie and the grain crushes itself in fear...
