In order to brew more economically; I’ve been hunting for a mill so I can buy grain in bulk and mill it myself. Probably due to Covid-19 no one had stock of the more affordable, ironically named Corona type mills. Bevplus has one from Brewferm but their website doesn’t offer a description. I then put my name on a waiting list at thequartermaster.co.za who said they’ll get stock Aug/Sept “sometime”.
Getting impatient; I searched the www again on Tuesday, and saw that Beerlab had a Corona type called Afrimill. All I could find out about it on afritrac.co.za, which appears to be the supplier, was that it seems to be a local product which could “crush maize into course maize meal and fine maize meal”.
I ordered one on Tuesday and it was delivered yesterday. It looks like quite a sturdy product and comes with a plastic guard to prevent bits flying everywhere. I tried it last night and with some elbow grease it worked great. I crushed fairly fine for better efficiency with BIAB and will brew this coming weekend.
