I was planning on brewing an all grain batch of NB Brickwarmer the first week of January, however, couldn’t get to it. It was pre crushed a few days before Christmas. Would you still use the grains or are they going to be too stale. I won’t be able to brew until this weekend. Thanks guys
If they were sealed and stored out of the sun in a cool place, you are just fine.
As long as they were stored cool and dry, they should be fine. Do they taste OK?
Edit: Looks like Dave beat me to the answer, so… Yeah, what he said.
Thanks guys, thats what I was hoping. Never took it out of the box and was wrapped in plastic.
I’ve gone as long as 3 months with pre-crushed grains in a bag and made one of the best beers I’ve ever made. No worries.
I hate to say it, but I’ve gone 8+ months before. Beer turned out fine. I store my grain in sealed containers or bags in my cool basement.
I’ve gone almost six months without issue. Kept sealed, dry, cool. Beer was just fine.
