Can someone link me to a thread or two on what motors brewers have used and pics on their set-ups. Have bought a millmaster some time ago and its about time I got my **** together and set it up. From what I have read so far I would need a minnimum of a 1hp / .75kw motor. Better still if there are brewers out there who can pm me on what they have done. Specifically info on the millmaster would be better.
Cheers

Hi,
I have a JSP mill, has 1.5" rollers (it's from the US) and it is direct drive (no gears) using a big old Hitachi 2-speed drill, 570W. Drill has a gearbox (not electronic control) and I use it on low speed, 700rpm.
Works perfectly, has been doing so for almost 10 years.
This mill takes a lot of torque, and I have 3 smaller drills which won't run it.
Hope this helps.
Peter
