I think I'd probably only use the DME for making starters. 1 year is pretty old for extract I think.

I always thought that was for liquid... not necessarily dry. What do I know though... I never used dry, so I'd always buy the liquid malt the day before I would brew.As for the grains... as long as they are not milled, they should be fine. Not a lot of grains really... maybe $5 to $7 retail value??? Whirfloc and Irish Moss is always good to have on hand.
