My oldest kid gets his driver's license today which means less money in my pocket each month (insurance, gas, new car for me
). I'm an extract brewer and it's generally cheaper for me to buy kits from AHS or Northern than to buy the ingredients outright from my LHBS. That said, I want him to stay in business. To balance my need to spend less money and also patronize his business, I was wondering if it's feasible to buy liquid malt extract in bulk. It's certainly cheaper that way, but I have no idea what the shelf life would be. Any idea how long an opened, bulk container (40 lbs) would stay fresh and how to store it?
