Hi
I m currently doing some rough research to determine the viability growing my own grain for my mash bill as an option to changing my cast of grains for stability
For some back ground, I currently operate a very small orchard that produces the apple portion of my hard cider and ale and I m looking into possibly growing the grains that I use in my ale mash.
