At Homebrew In Paradise http://www.homebrewinparadise.com/Index.aspx I can buy any grain in the store in the exact amount I want. Be it 1 oz or 30 lbs. I measure out myself what I need and pay the man. No extra grain laying around the house.
BTW..When is the tasting of the Irish Red against Kevin's? I'd like to see how the controlled fermentation worked out. Aloha!
Not only am I blessed with 2 excellent LHBS's within 35 min. and 45 min., respectively, 15 min from me is "New York Craft Malt", one of NY state's premier malt operations. They sell not only to major craft breweries, but to the local HB'er as well. I was there today, and Ted the owner stopped what he is doing in the middle of his busy schedule to weigh out 33# (10# minimum) of various malts I needed at very reasonable prices. Not only do they have a fairly comprehensive selection, the great thing is, it's all super-fresh (the 2-row pilsner I bought was malted on Nov. 6). He encourages you to sample the different malts (actually taste the grains) before you purchase. Check them out online at www.newyorkcraftmalt.com.
