  • Grist Sieves for setting mill gap -- need source

    Looking for some grist sieves so I can set my mill gap more optimally. I'm looking for the ones you shake by hand, not the ones you plug into the wall for shaking. I know I've seen companies selling them, but can't remember who.

    I don't know if they are the best deal, but McMaster-Carr has all the basic sizes at http://www.mcmaster.com/

      The most commonly used test sieves in the US are WS Tyler. Depending on whether you use EBC or ASBC methods, you'll need either five or six sieves, plus pan and cover. ASBC sieves required are #10, 14, 18, 30, 60, 100. Then you'll need ASBC recommended fractions for each. Google for a source--McMaster has them, but they are expensive. Great idea to have and use sieves. Not only does it give you the means to maximize grain usage, but also can improve beer quality. Good luck!
