I still consider myself very new to home-brewing, having only completed 1 successful batch. It was an Irish Red Ale and it turned out very well according to me and everyone else that has tried it. I have a Dunkelweizen sitting in my secondary right now and plan to bottle in about 10 days. Both of these were bought in a malt extract style kit from a local brew shop in my area.
My question is: What are the best options out there for ordering malt extract kits online (price and quality wise)? This local brew shop does not do very good business as they are almost always out of supplies and ingredients. They know their beer, just don't know how to run a business in my opinion. Both of these kits were pitched with a white labs pitchable liquid yeast vial. What is the best option for online ordering when it comes to yeast? Can you trust a liquid yeast shipment even if it is shipped well in a cold container? Would a "smack pack" be a better option?
