dry kits shelf life

Post by steve thailand » Sun Sep 20, 2009 3:22 am

i brought enough Brupaks dry kits to Thailand with me to last about 1 year until my next UK trip. but i just had a scary thought, what is the usual shelf life on dry kits?

they are well sealed in their plastic bags and i keep them in a sealed plastic box but its hard to keep anything cool here.

If they're in sealed plastic bags, that's the best you can do, I'd say once the beer tastes good don't worry. No reason to believe they'll go off to fast, they do that stuff in the US and Aussie too and they're not cold either.

thanks for the advise. storing hops in freezer and yeast in fridge is practical because they are small. good the DME doen's need babying

thanks
