Nice one @MrRook , That's the premium extra special floor-malted version.

 

[MrRook]

How much and where?

$66. The local homebrew club piggybacked on an order placed by a local brewpub.

Very much my usual base malt, use it for everything I brew, which is pretty standard English and Belgian styles, low-ish hopped beers (by contemporary standards, which are excessive) and medium-higher strength beers (max 7-8% or so).

Is Crisp malt well milled?
I have bags from other sources with a lot of flour and fragments
On my last mash it almost 'set' - wouldn't drain through the bed.

That will depend on who you buy it from.
Crisp will supply it o th retailer uncrushed. The retailer will then crush to order. Some retailers let you specify crush size when you order.

So recommendations for millers please.

My last bag of Maris Otter (BrewCo) was about 10% flour

DIY
Buy uncrushed grain and do it yourself

 

[LCJohnny]

Don't really want to go down the milling route atm - i already have so much kit to clean and store so that the garage can work for DIY and motorcycles in between brews lol.

Was just hoping someone here could recommend a crushed malt supplier.

I find crisps to be ok never had a problem, the only time i have a problem is using oats

 

[LCJohnny]

Thanks Rodcx

Just remember THBC website prices are VAT-ex, need to add 23% Irish VAT to the prices - caught me out last time.

All prices are inclusive of vat. When you go to the checkout though they list vat separately - think it's for convenience of accounting etc.

Did you order through the .ie or .co.uk site. Never had any issues with additional tax the .co.uk one.

Apologies, you are correct, just re-read the invoice: the VAT is listed in the subtotals at the end along with shipping charges, so it looks like VAT all is part of the final calculation but it isn't, it is in with the prices.

Glad I posted now, since ordering I've been feeling a bit ripped off but I'll order from them again now.

I made this exact same mistake!
