I got tired of using a drill to stir when corn thickened up, stepped it up a little.

Thats the whole set up, bayou burner / pot, old drill press I got at a garage sale, simple stand, I routed out a spot for a "window" I also have an immersion chiller I made to drop temp after cooking corn/
Jiffy Mixer

Thats the "Jiffy Mixer I put in the press. Its a half inch shank and all stainless. I think 36". The drill press is able to raise and lower which helps to keep things moving.

This is with the window opened, works well for adding grains post corn.

I run a simple pot still so im not complaining with those numbers. I know its crude but I love it.

Thanks Hound Dog, working on a "cider press" to save me some time as well. (straining mash through nylon bags is getting old) Once everything is dialed I figure i'll do a write up of my whole all grain process.
