Pure anger. My grains are on island. But customs and shipping agent. Slacking. Wait now 2 weeks. Damm wanna brew
That sucks bigtime!
maybe it’s time for you to buy your grains in 50 pound bags.
I do buy 200lbs grain at the time and some small bags of specialty grains. Have seen my grains standing. But due to. Kings day. Labour day. Bonaire day. 4 and 5 may. Liberation day. Everything closed. Did talk to e zone a other company. He claims its the same price. Shipping and handeling. Cost. If so. Need to make sure it comes next time to my ezone adress in miami. And i will have it with in 10 days he claims
I’d move if I was in a pickle like that!

Most the time i do use kviek. Yeast. Or saison yeast. They are more temp tolerant for the climate here on the island. Been using. Us5 as well but this puts me ln temp control. A old fridge i use for this so i can control the temp. But this kills me power bill wise. Running a kegurator. A other fridge in my beer room. It drives my wife crazy. Or is use the swamp cooler method. Thats the reason i brew ipa or ale beers. Once a while a lager. On yeast. I do repitch. The yeast. I top crop somethimes. Most the time start out with fresh yeast. To lazy to wash or collect the yeast
