Brewferm Grain Gorilla first use

[@maltmayhem5776]

I came here because mine wouldn't crush. I did like you and thought the drill had to go counterclockwise. Clockwise did it! Beautiful crush!

[@foodiepappa]

It's all good fun. I'm coming back to making beers soon . I got a tilt to test out

[@knacrr]

Can you set the gap size in between the labeled values? How is it working after 2 years?

[@reckneya]

Hey brother, thx for the vid. Your drill is on hammer setting.

[@foodiepappa]

Wouldn't surprise me haha

To keep the grain hull intact and improve flow, try conditioning your grain with 2% water based on grain weight. Spray it on the malt with a spray bottle, leave it for 10 minutes and mill. This will allow you to keep a small roll gap and still avoid a stuck sparge

[@foodiepappa]

I've heard/ read about this technique and I may try this in a future brew . Cheers . To be fair I changed the roller size by if say a quater way to the next roller marking and got a better crush and fast flow. Efficiency at about 75% . A point on design of the mill if you are interested is that the hopper is flimsy and bent at the screws very easily when I was dusting it down

[@michaelcatto8323]

Please what is the recommended method of cleaning the device ?

[@foodiepappa]

I used a dry soft cloth to get rid of excess grain particles

[@Tump3]

How did the brew go with that crush? Was sparge ok or did it get stuck? Looks a bit floury.

[@foodiepappa]

Slow to be fair . So I gave it a stir in the grainfather which sped up the sparge . Was only 2points out of desired og. I will move it up to the next measurement on the next brew

Hi! Which distante would you suggest for a pils or maris otter malt?

[@foodiepappa]

I found a hair before 0045 to be good .

[@DeVirginer]

0,7mm is the right distance.

[@Kberrysal]

Will they shipped this to the usa 🇺🇸

[@foodiepappa]

No idea . I found this product at UK site geterbrewed and in Belgium brouwland if that helps to speak to them

[@niccoloborraccia1645]

Please Guys...I need to buy a new mill so fast...Definitely you suggest me this one or not ??? Thankssss

[@foodiepappa]

I've only milled with it twice to date

[@paulnicholasadams]

Raging i bought this, utter crap, only 1 roller powered by the drill and doesn't grab the grain.

[@foodiepappa]

I've used it twice. Crush seemed to work ok . I don't like the aluminium hopper . It bent out of shape whilst I was trying to clean it so I had to fix it with a hammer.

[@paulnicholasadams]

Small hopper too! I came from the bulldog one and i thought this was an upgrade, big mistake!

[@paulnicholasadams]

How are you finding it now?
