Captain Crush Grain Mill

@njs170

I have the captain crush and I have used it for two batches. I really like the mill. My eff has gone down a little bit but I changed a few other things too so it might not be the mill. My biggest complain in the drill. I am using a low rpm drill and it likes to overheat/smoke for me. I would like to see if anyone has made up a motor setup for it yet?

I’ve googled a few motors for the captain crush. One website sells them for a couple hundred. I think I’d rather just get the right drill for the job. I don’t crush enough grain to make a $200 motor worth it.

You could get a brand new drill for under $100.
