    Welcome Beginning Brewers!

    No, you can’t buy a bulk bag and make different flavours from it. At least not at your current level. The different flavours are made by sprouting, drying, and toasting the base grain specific amounts then cracking or grinding them to specific thickness. Quite difficult to do correctly in a...
