my Grainmaker 99 will arrive before too long and I want to figure out the motor thing pretty quickly. I want to be able to adjust the speed. Is that even possible? I would like to grind flour slowly, but want the ability to speed up when I grind grain for animal feed. Country Living sells a nice motor that I believe would work fine on a grainmaker, but it limits me to 60 rpm. would a motor speed controller of some sort on a stronger motor do the job? thanks
the 60 rpm limit on the Country Living limits damage to the machine.
Speed up the milling by loosening the plates for a coarser grind.
Ok I see. The slow speed is not just to keep the flour cool, it's to keep the burrs cool. Thank You. Won't be speeding anything up.
Today I ordered grainmakers diy motorization kit. It will make hooking it up to a common 1725 rpm motor a breeze
