Grain mills

[terri9630]

I've been looking at getting a grain mill, one that has a motor and a hand crank since we loose power here every time the wind blows. What do y'all use? Any suggestions?

Thank you. I've been reading here for awhile but I finally decided to register. Don't know why it took me so long..

Thanks. I'll try to make my way over there. My phone is picky about what it opens and my husband killed my computer with a cup of water.

I go with a handcrank one, I use it for chicken feed sometimes. But I figure in an Emergenecy Situation you wont have electric, right? So I think hand grinder is the best option....

I agree. That's why I want one with a crank and motor. There are just a lot of them out there and I have no idea which to choose. I want one that is halfway easy to crank.

And thanks for the welcome.

You can get good bargains on them at flea markets, thats where mine came from.......

I've been looking but there isn't a decent flea market around here. I miss Busseys in San Antonio TX.
