I buy it by the sak because we have an account at MCM and so we get some deals on pallets. We are on our 6th pallet this year.

This. Except we are around 3 pallets for the year.

Luckily MCM is close. I drive out for 15 or 20 sacks whenever the club needs it. I'm about through my second sack of Red X for the year.

So tRe, you should be paying the same for Best RedX and Munich, no?

 

Ken, you are going to love this stuff.  I can't wait to try it in a whole bunch of lagers.

 

Also, let it be known that I am the first to suggest its use in a Flanders in this thread (I think  :blush: )

*makes note to hit up award winning Finger Lakes Pinot Noir producers for barrels in the morning*

Doob, I know I don't pay the same price for Red X as Munich from MCM. Red X is about .10/lb. more depending on what Munich we are talking.

Hmm, I could have sworn they were the same price.  I want to say it was around $0.75 per pound the last time I ordered it.  I may be mistaken.

Yeah 75 cents is about right. Most munichs are around 65 cents a pound. But compared to the LHBS its still a good deal buying grains in bulk.

Absolutely, I've been brewing this Alt since I first got a sample of Red X. It's a delicious beer.

Nice job CWG. You've been taking home a lot of hardware lately.

Thanks. I've dialed in my Helles and my Alt. It's mostly what I enter. Plus I really enjoy drinking them  :D

CWG: Well done and congrats to you. Those are two styles (Alt and Helles) that I also enjoy and if you throw a Kolsch in there, I'm good with that as well. I can't wait to try the RedX Alt I recently made. Cheers and hoist a beer to that award!

Awesome!!!  :frank:  :frank:  :frank:

 

I was going to try that malt, but it was gonna be $100 to get a sack with shipping and the LHBS' didn't carry it.
