Hi all, just wanted to know how you guys go about getting your grains and keeping them stored at home. Each 40l brew we have done so far have been bought pre cracked at the LHBS but want to start bulk buying my own grains so i can just go to the garage and crack my own when needed. I have so far purchased two 50l drums from beerbarrell on here and a mini mill from craftbrewer. We mainly brew pale ale type beers with mainly pilsner and ale malts as the base.
So my question i guess is do i just buy the base malts in bulk and get the spec malts still from the LHBS or do you try to buy alot of different malts to have ready at home, but in smaller amounts?
And for all you Sydney brewers, who is the cheapest to buy from?
