After sparging some grains on an ale, I got to looking closely at the grains and I saw that some... were not grains at all, but little spotted beetles with wings and legs and pincers. I wanted to punch the wall. I thought my ale was ruined. I was so pissed off, I called the LHBS and told them about the 'incident' and to my surprise, they acted like the bugs must have entered the grain between the time I paid for it and the time I steeped them which was about 2 hours. Yeah, ok. Idiots!
Furthermore, these guys at the LHBS used to seem like pretty legit dudes, but now I am starting to have doubts about their products - this is not how I want to feel about my LHBS either. So, as a warning: always inspect the 5 lbs of milled grains thoroughly before hand...
Lesson learned. :rockin:
