You’ve already paid for it so make sure nothing goes to waste. By tracking brewhouse efficiency with this simple calculator, brewers can begin to evaluate their processes and recipes to ensure they’re not leaving any money in their mash tuns.

We recently stepped up to a larger mill, but we used an Econo Mill from Apollo Mills for multiple years and had zero issues with it.  If you are looking for a used mill, please reach out via email.  We have it available at a fair price and we’re located in Wisconsin.  Nick(at)AhnapeeBrewery.com
