    Recommend a grain mill

    I went for a chinese copy of the bulldog type, it is a 2SS roller affair and it works perfectly, it came with 2 bars that attach to the bottom of it so you can stand it on top of a FV while crushing..... It cost about £56.00 off of AliExpress- the downside was the Import VAT and the post...

    Bumping this a bit, so sorry...... I've ordered a 2 micron SS from China eBay... I was gonna rig it up to a pump for inflating air beds rather than an O2 canister or aquarium pump. Its quite powerful. What's your thoughts fellow brewers ?

    Importing from China

    My fermenter is a SS pot and tap from angelhomebrew.....No seal, just the lid; It goes into the temp cont fridge and left for 2 weeks without any fiddling- not lost a brew yet to it..... the fridge seals seem to do all the sealing i need.

    How did you get your user name.?

    From the old folk song.....John Barleycorn "The character of John Barleycorn in the song is a personification of the important cereal crop barley and of the alcoholic beverages made from it, beer and whisky." (Wikipedia). My name isn't John either !
