Grain question

[dbeer22]

So I planned on brewing yesterday and I had my LHBS Crush my grains but life got in the way ( wife, kids, etc) now it looks like I won't be able to brew today. My question is how long after the grains have been crushed can I wait to brew. Right now it looks as though I won't be able to brew until next weekend, is that ok?

If you can brew that batch before Christmas you'll be fine as long as you keep them where it is dry.

Awesome! That's what I was hoping to hear. Thank you!

a year. I speak from experience. Probably not the best scenario, but the beer was still good. I've bigger demons to concern myself with that may influence my beers.

Yeah, if you have a Tupperware container, even better. Throw 'em in there in a cool, dry space & you'll be fine for quite some time....

Does your LHBS vacuum seal the grains after grinding? Mine does and I usually get them a few weeks in advance since they aren't close to home (so I stop in when I'm out that way.)
