Sorry if this has been discussed somewhere, couldn't seem to find it. I've been designing my brewery shed and have been stuck on flooring options.

Thanks for the info guys. I think I'm gonna be safe as it is crushed and does seem a bit stale. Not worth the time for that little amount of grain. Thanks as always everyone!

My apologies if this has been discussed but I didn't come across it. I found a 5 lb bag of sealed grain, 2.5lbs of pils and 2.5 lbs of wheat. It has probably been in my basement, for two years, fairly cool and relatively airtight. Any idea how long crushed grain lasts?
