Cracked corn.

Postby Icefever » Fri Jan 29, 2016 12:50 pm

Where's the best place to buy corn??? I've found this here 20kgs for £16:95.

This looks to be straight corn not a mixed chicken feed that a lot of folks sell.

Does anyone use the micronised corn instead of the kibbled? Can only go on what I've read but with it being steamed, it seems like less cooking when you want to make a mash from it.

Iv'e used the m/corn as well as the kibbbled i admit its easier
to cook but it's a lot harder to work with. Admittingly i have
not tried it with my latest mashing set-up, but with the old
cool-box way, it was tedious and messy. You end up with arms
like popeye squeezing that grainbag.
