Most people prep their own grains for cost reasons. The last time I used prepped grains, it was about $90 with shipping for 12 grain jars. I can make the same thing at home for $2.

12 jars of sterile grain for 18 bucks must be like shot glass sized.

Considering I just bought 24 quart jars for 36 bucks.

$19.99 for 3lbs pre-sterilized grains
12 jars = ~12lbs of grain
thats ~$80 for 12 jars worth of pre sterilized grain, plus whatever it costs to ship. $90 sounds right

or 50lbs of oats, a case or jars and a 23 quart presto will run you about the same $ and you’ll have 38 more pounds of grain to use in the future

edit: even more lbs of grain to use in the future since this is dry weight were talking about from the bag vs wet presterilized

If you are interested in doing this as a hobby that you will repeat, I'd invest in a PC and jars and prep your own grain. Then it can be repeated as you wish, and will ultimately be cheaper. Plus you will learn a new craft, which is cool.
