[@SCROWMD]

Thanks or this video.I have some neglected maintenance to get to(roller cleaning) CHEERS

[@CityscapeBrewing]

You're welcome! 🍺💯

[@johng4503]

Thanks for the info! I had this happen a few brew days ago and I did your reverse spin technique. I haven’t broke down my grain mill ever and I have to do that soon! Cheers!🍻

[@CityscapeBrewing]

They are dirtier than they look! 💯🤘

[@NWsmallbatchBrewing]

Good content. I haven't ever taken my mill apart.

[@CityscapeBrewing]

This was the second time and always amazes me how much dirtier they are than they look!! 🍻

[@robbiasetti4678]

Great video! I’ve had that mill for 15 years and it’s been giving me a hard time lately. Never thought to break it down. Thank goodness I mill a day prior- it’s really annoying to deal with a full mill that won’t grind on a brew day

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Absolutely! Mine has definitely been through some work.. needed it. 🍺

[@robbrasmussen7568]

Perfect timing!!! I had this issue on the last brewday. I accidentally ran my drill in reverse for a second and that fixed it. I’m brewing again tomorrow so I’ll give my mill these other treatments tonight. Thanks a ton!!!👍🏻🍻

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Awesome! Glad to help. Frustrating when you're in the middle of a brew day for sure!

[@curtpick628]

Good stuff Dennis.

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Thanks! 🍻🤘

[@Nefariousrouge]

A good reminder for me to clean mine since I am brewing this weekend. Friendly reminder to charge up the drill battery too! Last batch mine died just before the last rotation!

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Yeah, you never know when they're going to start gumming up on you! 💯🍻

[@Photologistic]

So glad I have the JSP Maltmill, the rollers are twice the length, much more surface area to grab the grain.

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Yep that helps for sure.

[@Yokoanubis]

Thank you! Very helpful.

Great Video. Hasn’t happened yet but likely will. And I know you have worn that shirt in another video but I just clued into its meaning. 😂😂😂 cheers

[@CityscapeBrewing]

😂 🍻 it's a good one.

[@jakekivela4507]

All I do is, after EVERY mill, blow out the rollers using a can of compressed air. It gets every nook & cranny. Less than 2 minutes no disassembly needed.

[@CityscapeBrewing]

That's definitely good for maintenance So you don't have to do it as often. I actually use my leaf blower to blow out the entire thing after every use. And it still gets between the rollers on the sides. After a few years and hundreds of pounds of grain. Good advise with the compressed air can trick! 🍻
