We’ve added a “new” mill to our Cambridge location, the Modern Homebrew Emporium. It is the Monster Mill that we retired from the small milling station when it stopped grabbing grain and started to constantly jam. We’ve solved that jamming problem by ignoring it.

Small Mill Replacement at MHE
It is no exaggeration when we tell people that tons of grain have passed through our mills. The small mill by Monster Mill has been installed for at least the past three years. In the past few months it has become a regular headache for both the staff and the customers who have been using[…]
