What a real man needs

Post by Beer-lord »

I'm sure others have gotten this email from Northern Brewer but doesn't this make you drool?

My mill works just fine but by the time I'm ready for a new one, I hope the price comes down. Might not even work as well as mine does but looks like nice grain mill to me!

Good looking piece but IMO a little pricey for me at $279.99.

Louie, if that's what you call "a piece" we need to talk.

I like crushing mine at the LHBS and find that if I seal it there it's fine 3 weeks later, even 6 weeks (buying two batches), and I can't tell it's not.

This is what I'm buying for Christmas... It crushes grains, and small cars.

We've gone way off topic here.
