Grain Mill for a Hobart A200 ?

I was wondering if its possible to get a grain mill for a hobart A200 since is a drive port on the front of the machine.

Or maybe there is one that fits

I was given lots of excellent help at onesharpstore.com for an ancient Hobart once.  Go to their website and give them a call at the number listed there.  They might have what you need.

Hello

You may find many grain mills for the #10 hub (for C10/C100/N50/KAs models), but they are not compatible with the A200 which has a bigger #12 hub.

As far as I know, I never saw a #12 hub grain mill, except on a vintage advertising for Hobart France (see picture below, green circled attachment) :

It seems that, in the past, international hobart subsidiaries had some freedom in designing their own machines/accessories in addition to the regular range determined by the head office, and the french catalog was very extensive. Today Hobart France is no more longer producing mixers and their attachments since european market is supplied only by 2 plants (UK + Germany), but some rare stuff can sometimes be found on the second hand market.

Regards.

Thanks so much for that. A hobart would be ideal to drive a grain mill.

Thanks again for the detailed explaination.
