Wasn't sure whether to post in this part of the forum or under gear & equipment but I have been having problems trying to crush my latest batch of JWM Pilsner. I have done 2 brews out of this bag so far and for some reason it doesn't want to pull through the mill. I have a Marga which has done about 3 25kg bags without any problems. I have never had to change the settings.
I basically end up ramming a paint scraper down my hopper full of grain to encourage the grains into the rollers. I have tried messing with the gap setting and it doesn't seem to make any difference. It seems as though the rollers can't get a grip on this batch of grain. However, I ran 300gm of wheat through at the end and that went straight through with no problems, crushed beautifully. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything like this before and if there are any suggestions out there.
Cheers,
