Various two roller grains mills are available, most of which have very similar specifications. As brands tend to come and go we are no longer recommending any specific model. Any two roller mill will meet your needs as long as you can add a base (sometimes sold separately), a hopper to hold grain, and 1.25 to 1.5" diameter rollers where the gap size can be adjusted on both ends. We achieve over 95% mash efficiency using such a mill.

Hopper sizes vary with 6-7 lb or 12-15 lb being the most popular. We recommend keeping the hopper on the smaller end of the range. The few seconds you save by only having to fill the hopper once instead of 2-3 times is negligible in relation to the work involved in brewing beer at the home brew level. If you have a large brewing area and plan to leave the mill out at all the times, by all means consider a larger hopper. Larger hoppers tend to be top heavy and harder to store when not in use.

Some mills include a crank handle but we prefer to use a high powered 3/8" or 1/2" variable speed reversible (VSR) drill.
