I just was gifted a 5 HP 3450 RPM motor. I've got a 2" Drive Pulley connected to a 8" Driven pully on a mandrel, which I'll attach to the barley crusher via coupling. The resulting rpm is 862.5 or a .25 reduction
How fast is too fast? I was hoping to keep with the 8", but if I need to, I'll start looking for a 10 or 12"
