Currently I'm planning to go from extract 5 gallon to 3 gallon Brew In A Bag batches. 3 reasons - Savings of AG + the fact that I don't drink a whole lot + I like making the beer possibly more than drinking it (and I do enjoy that, in moderation). (plus at least this way I can build up to 5g+ batches later if I want to)
Anyways, I've been looking for well priced (2-row) grain. Best I've found is Morebeer's 50 pound bags for 32$ -- however after shipping to Nebraska it costs 68 or 70$. Combine this with the fact that I can buy 50 ONE lb bags from morebeer and get free shipping = 62$.
The LHBS sells 50 lbs for 61$ + tax and most places I've found online sell for ~70-80 after shipping.
Anyone have any tips on a place I can get 1-4 bags at a price much lower? (pickup from adjoining states being possible) As far as bulk buy chances they're slim. There is a Homebrew club in a nearby city but A) I'm not very social and B) I work nights and have weekdays off (so I can't be social if I wanted to). So in general I don't have people to do that with.
Any help would be much appreciated.
