Might be slightly off topic but while I’m waiting for yeast to arrive, thought I’d better get myself a grain mill. Any that you would recommend?I would be after something that would be able to handle corn as well as other grains. I buy cracked corn for UJ and have noticed that there is no real difference in price between whole and cracked grain (I assume the cracked grain would be easier on the mill) Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cheers

I do the same. Makes the milling faster. 2 roller driven by a drill works for me

"yes, the delivery time is VERY longer time due to COVID-19 now, it need at least 60-90 days , in fact, all seller in eBay the same now.
Because of many countries have reduced flights. International mail service is very difficult. Our package cannot arrive on time. There may be delays with previous packages, please don't worry. The parcel will arrived, just later than usual."
Thinking I might have to give this a miss for now, then thinking, when 3 months have gone by I'll be kicking myself for not ordering any so I took another look at 'unwelcome advertiser' this morning. They now have it.
Ordered a pack with an ETA of 24 - 49 days & the price was better than any on Ebay.

Ended up doing it all by hand....

I saw that. Are you sure you are getting the right yeast ?

You can buy malt in drums?

While I think the one you are looking at, looks the same, it has "Instant Dry Yeast" on the front of the pack:

What you want is this one with "Starter of Liquor-making" on the front:
