Great for chicken / animal feed.
I have used this to grind milo (sorghum), wheat and oats. The handle works good, but I attached my 1/2 chuck drill to it and it holds up just fine. I don't think it is intended to be used this way but at least for me it works great.mill is adjustable and is very capable of getting dialed into what ever size grain you are trying to mill.I used this to make chicken feed, I know this is intended for brewers, but works for animal feed too.You will have to mount this to a sturdy platform and it does come with mounting hardware.

Great mill!
This is a solid piece of brewing equipment that any serious homebrewer should own. It was easy to assemble, seems like good construction with quality steel rollers, and was a bit less expensive than other comparable options. Adjusting the crush size from 1” to o.25” is a breeze. Did a fantastic job on my first batch last weekend and I’m looking forward to the next one!

Nice little grain mill.
I bought this grain mill before reading the reviews and I almost regretted my purchase while it was on its way. Some of the reviews were pretty bad. After getting it I'm actually glad I bought it. It was really easy to assemble and it does the job well enough. I'm assuming operator error is to blame for some of the bad reviews cause I didn't have any of the issues they mentioned. I switched out the screws on the hopper for rivets because I'd heard the screws have a tendency to come loose with use. The one thing a lot of reviews mentioned was the inaccuracy of the capacity, and they were right. It doesn't hold as much as the description states, but that's not an issue, it just means I have to refill more often. I may extend the capacity by riveting additional aluminum sheet to it, we'll see. As you can see in the 2nd pic the roller adjustment knobs don't seem to line up with the engraved markings, so I had to take a permanent marker to it. I have it set to 0.063 in that pic. Aside from those 2 small issues this is a nice little grain mill. I've used it several times now and it does what it's intended to do. I'd definitely recommend it.

In the price range this grain mill work well.
I've been using this mill for about a month now, milled about 50 pounds of 2 row and the likes. Had some problems to start with, but ended up being user error. To tight of gap and running the drill to fast. To start with the assembly isn't to bad. Remove the blue film to start. A Phillips screw driver and a wrench or pair of pliers are about all you need. Assemble the cone then mount it to the grinder. I mounted mine to a 5 gallon bucket lid. Be sure to check all of the nut bolts and screws and make sure there tight.Setting the gap is probably the hardest part. I used a credit card to start with which is about .030 of an inch did a small test run then increased the gap to .045 inches. Make sure to keep the rollers parallel to each other and recheck your gap after your tighten the locking bolts. I didn't find the little marks for the width of gap to be even close to accurate or even in the ballpark. A feeler gage works best for this. Good investment makes this part easier.I use my cordless drill set on the low speed. Keep the rpms slow. You want the drill to turn about as fast as if you were using the hand crank. If the speed is to high the grain will stop feeding.Overall I am very satisfied with everything about this mill. It does an excellent job of mill my grain. The price is very good. Shipping was timely. The seller Brewhouse168 are fantastic to work with, if you have a question or having a problem just contact them. They will get right back to you, great support.

Decent mill but needs better quality parts.
Just put together and used this mill for a batch of homebrew. It worked reasonably will with the mill gap in the middle of the range.I had some difficulty putting this together because some of the screws were very poor quality - the screw rounded out and crumbled using a philips head driver. There was some room for a flathead to fit, and with care I was able to get the mill assembled. Including some stainless steel hardware can't ding the profit margin that much, can it?The only other very minor point is that the gap adjustment feels very loose, almost like a particularly hard piece of malt could open the gap in the middle of the crush. That didn't happen though, the crush was just fine.On the plus side, there weren't any fitting issues - every hole lines up fine and once assembled looks very nice.On the whole, I'm happy with this mill.

Poor design and execution
1. It’s an idiotic design where each side of the roller has to be adjusted separately. It’s not easy to fet it right. I had to use a thick credit card to get the size I wan on each side. Once I did, the gauges did not match on each side. That tells you everything.2. As soon as I start filling the hopper, I hear full size grains dropping in the bucket. Another idiotic design where grains find a way to bypass the mill from the four corners. Just by looking, you can see the aluminum sides do not cover the corners. This means a handful of whole grains will make it to your mash! I had to use aluminum tape to cover all gaps.
