The Posho Mill is the easiest way to produce quality maize meal with its durable, compact design, simplified roller milling technology and hard work ethic.

Requiring only 9.5kW of power, the Posho has an extraction capability of 82 to 85%. This translates to 750kg per hour of which 612 - 637kg is maize meal per hour; the rest is bran.
