Hello all,
I am new to this forum and also to all grain brewing. I am wondering how other brewers store their uncrushed grain. The nearest place I can buy grain is the Grain and Grape, which is about 2 hours drive away. I was thinking of buying 25kg bags and then crushing them as I require. Will the uncrushed grain keep if stored correctly and for how long? What is the best way to store grain? I mainly brew English ales, so the grain I will buy will be mainly ale malt and crystal malt etc. During winter it is quite damp in the central highlands of Victoria, so I suppose that is a consideration as well. Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
