Anyone have any experience with the Crop Duster grain mill from AIH? Or the Cereal Killer?
I only brew once a month: three gallons and generally 5-7 lbs of grain and the “top of the line” mills seem like overkill and are really budget busters.
I just buy my grain milled Doesn’t cost anymore and might as well let them do it. LOL. I do the same, once a month or so and 5 gallons at a time. I might do 3 gallon BIAB just to see what it is like and bottle it.
I had never heard of the crop duster mill. For $89 bucks it’s a steal by the look of it. It would probably work well and last a good long time at one batch a month.
I wore out my Barley Crusher twice and now have a monster mill 3 roller. It’s overkill but works great.

I have a Crop Duster, and it works just fine for what I do.
I’m not sure it’d be robust or fast enough if I were routinely doing big batches, but for my 1- to 3-gallon BIAB batches, it’s been a great value for the price.
Edit: I crank it as fine as it’ll go and drive it with my cordless Ryobi drill without any issues.
