Anyone ever use a Ercolino Grinder (hammer mill)?

You get what you pay for but these are pretty cheap! Not fast, but would work for what I'm interested in doing for a start up. At $660 the price is right.

I've used and owned bigger; which were slow as hell.  Throughput is just slow with these small models and, depending, depending, depending, could add a hell of a lot of time to milling.

I had an employee stand in front of mine a few times and realized it was cheaper to put the grain in a truck, unload it at the feed store, mill it, re-bag it, re-load it, put it back in my stillhouse.  The small ones can be that slow. 

On the other hand, if you're doing small weights of grains, maybe even larger batches of botanicals, say under 100lbs, this may be a good option.
