Bulk Grains?

Besides Grains Process in Scarborough are there any places to get grains in bulk? I'm looking for someplace that carries pilsner malt (which GP does not).

i've bought pilsner malt at g+p in the past...something particular you want, or have they stopped carrying it? last i checked they had the whole weyermann line, including the pilsner, and i even got a bag of belgian pils from them a while back.

When I called today they said they don't stock pilsner malt. Now, it could be the person I dealt with didn't know what they were talking about as she hemmed and hawed a bit (and was not someone from the retail store).

When I asked for their full list of grains last week Belgian pils was not among them (I wish it was!).

Grub when you say G+P do you mean Gilbertson and Page or Grains Process?

I would assume Gilbertson and Paige as from what I remember grain process only had two row.

Grains Process carries about 8 or 9 varieties.

Really? I must have talked to the wrong person. What kinds do they carry?

Of the top of my head Vienna, wheat, 2-row, chocolate - few others. You'd have to call for the full list.

sorry for the confusion... i was talking about gilbertson+page in fergus (where i buy all my bulk grains) and not grains process (which is more limited and not quite as cost friendly as G+P).
