Hi All, Sorry for making a new thread on this but after a couple days searching I just can't find any definitive answers.
Looking at the Crankandstein 328g or 328d mill for our soon to be brewery. These seem fairly straight forward and will help with the startup budget. I am very confident we can easily build the right size stand and hopper but having difficulty determing the following:
*What motor should I use? I saw recommendations for a 3/4hp and I would definitely want it to be explosion proof and run off 110v power. I'm having trouble finding suggestions that are not seriously over my budget, any suggestions would be very helpful, I believe it needs to run between 100-300rpm max.
*Any suggestions on how to connect the motor to the mill? Do I need to use a pully system or is there a direct drive?
Would love to hear thoughts from all of you breweries who had to start out this way. I plan on making a stand that has an enclosed cabinet, open the cabinet, stick the small garbage can in, close the door, fill up the can and move on to the next one.
Thanks again for any suggestions or help.
