Wal-Mart Wheat?

I stumbled on this in a walmart store near me and was wondering if anyone had experience using this in a wheat beer?!

I don't have a LHBS (maybe thinking about starting my own!) within a 2 hr drive.

I would probably have to malt the grain in here and if its processed in any way I'm not sure it would actually malt correctly?

Please advise!

Here is the description:

Its a powder, i dont think that would work to well.

"By Grinding Your Own Wheat Just Like We Do Here At Wheat Montana..."
Sounds like it isn't ground yet.

How much for the 25 pound bag?

Why Do They Have To Capitalize Every Damn Word? That is @#$%ing retarded.

That said - "hi-protein" is not what you want out of a malt. We want 'dem carbs!

JoeBronc, I saw that, along with malcs comment I should add, when I picked up the bag at walmart it felt like grain inside, not like powder in the bag, but the bag was rather thick so I may be wrong. I think I might take a small tear in the bag and check it out, is that wrong?! :O

Robtotten, I was pretty cheap, cheap enough for me to actually check out, I want to say less than 15 dollars?

Arcane, I dont think it was actually malted yet so maybe after malting we'd have more carb? Not sure about the changes that go on there though.

I think this might be the stuff we are looking at, looks like it is actually whole grain kernels inside.

I read in the "Complete Joy..." about using unmodified grains as adjuncts. You have to modify them yourself before using them in your mash. Didn't seem difficult, but I would go back and reread before doing it myself. Sounds like a good thing if it pans out. Let me know.
Good luck, Mack

looks like a great price. Keep us updated.

Sounds very interesting.

Considering I'll be bottling my first kit this weekend I don't think I'll get around to doing a full grain batch with this until mid summer, but if I do and if I remember I will keep you guys posted!
