End of the PhilMill era

Tue Jul 15, 2014 8:29 am

After about 200 ten gallon batches, my PhilMill I finally bit the dust.

Two tons of grain I figure have gone past that little tiny roller. The knurling still looks as good as new too.

Thank goodness this was on the last 3 lbs of my annual summer 2bbl run and not the first 3 lbs. I actually tried crushing some with the side of a beer bottle like I used to do and remembered why I stopped doing that! :shock:

At least now I have a few months to shop around and find my mill for the next ten years. Don't worry, I'm not going to ask which one to get. I know everyone loves the mill they have, and they all do the job perfectly well.

Sorry to hear about your lost friend. Sounds like he really worked hard for you. :)

Send an email off to Dan Listermann. He guaranteed those things for life. He fixed my PhilMill I for free a couple years ago when the bearings went out. Can't hurt to ask.
