Grinding feed seems like a popular post here, and so I thought I'd share some pictures of grinding today. Our grinder is made from a Bryant hammermill that came out of a local feedmill. Originally powered by two electric motors (1 100 hp, 1 30 hp) we made a drive train -mostly from parts from a Fox forage harvester and blower- to power it by tractor.
I can do a load of corn (maybe 375 bu) in about 40 minutes. I get it down to about 400-500 microns, or powder. Today I did 2 loads of wheat and one of corn. @ more of corn tomorrow morning will fill the bin.
