    Yeah, those prices can't be beat. That's pretty great. I wish there was an easier way to hook that up around here. I thought I had a...

    Excellent points. I'd really like to think quality is more important than budget, but the reality of it is as you say, @MaxStout I...

    Mostly agree. Though the biggest of the big maltsters in Germany don't have a huge step up in quality over some domestic malts. Best...

    Interesting info on the economies of scale. I was thinking less shipping, less carbon footprint by going local, even with a bigger...

    Ah, well, that could be. And if that's the case, I'm sorry. But dang it! Let's bicker and argue! 😅
