Subject: RE: rolled corn vs cracked corn


Kingdom of Callaway - Fulton, Mo 65251
A roller mill has two rollers pushing against each other that the grain goes through and is smashed by it.

The hammer mill has swinging hammers that beat the grain and smash it.

I like the looks of rolled feed better as at least through my mill it is more uniformly cracked and has less dust and fines. But as for feeding? I don't know.

1st pic: roller mill


2nd pic: rolled corn - you can change finished product by adjusting gap between rollers in or out.


3rd pic: hammermill corn - you can adjust finished product by using different screens (hole size/shape)
