Prices high in England?

Think the prices are high in UK - Just found a commercial site here in Turkey supplying - hop extract, malt, malt extract powdered form and malt extract in liquid form.

Hop extract - Â£89.36 for 1kg!! :shock:

Malt - Â£36.84 for 25kg

Malt extract Â£134.05 for 25KG

Malt extract liquid - Â£85.63 for 15kg

Now you see why i malt my own! i get a kg of unmalted for 29p so Â£7.32 for 25kg ! :thumb:

Ouch!! The malt price is maybe 50% higher than average here - that's a price hike that would annoy the hell out of a lot of people here!

Yeah i know - the hop extract is in powdered form too?? And i couldnt justify buying the powdered malt extract at that price either as thats the only weights they do them in. Dont see how i could stop it going rock hard once opened.

Is there any chance you could do a tutorial on how to malt grains?
I'm sure I'm not the only one that would be interested
