Have one AG batch down, just bought a Corona Mill, and looking to buy a bag of bulk grain to cut down some costs. So I'm looking for some guidance to what I should get. My next brews are going to be a Two Hearted Clone, a Fat Tire clone, and some sort of Oatmeal Stout. After those three, I want to do a lager of some sort. I know most Stout recipes call for MO, but could I brew a decent one with just 2 row? I only have only enough space to store one bag right now, and Here are my options and prices.

50 lbs bag
Briess 2 Row. $42.50

55 pound bags
CMC 2 Row $43.00
CMC Pale $43.75
CMC Pilsen $43.75
 
I use briess 2 row ....works great....never tried CNC pay .50 more to get 5 extra pounds sounds like a plan to me....

I wouldn't worry about MO....I personally can't tell the difference...some will claim its amazing...blah blah....I always have two row and pilsen available..along with vienna and munich
