Barry's Homebrew Outlet. Corner of Front and Snyder in south Philly. Very small, no whole hops, and don't trust the guy's advice.

I used to live a short distance from there, 5th and Mifflin. I still have relatives at 2nd and Siegel. That whole neighborhood has changed.

I'll be in York, PA on Monday for a couple of weeks. I may/not visit relatives in Cherry Hill, NJ next weekend.

In Australia, we can get dry malt extract that the manufacturer claims is spray dried (Muntons from the UK). The other stuff is heated and vacuumed until crystalisation I think.

I thought this was better because it had less heating but then I thought of oxidation, which might be bad??

It seems Muntons in the UK supplies a lot of malt to Aussie homebrewers so it is probably best to use dry because it stores longer without deterioration.
