food grade corn vs feed corn

[Jar Head]

So as I'm getting ready to buy some corn for my first all grain, I have been on the fence about the feed vs food grade corn. Found many helpful theads that have used feed corn with great results. Is it mostly the overall yeild that is a bigger potentail in food grain corn? A 50 lb bag is 36$ food food grade up here.

I think the difference is going to be in preparation and packaging. Food grade is obviously going to be cleaner. Yield will be no different. I would go with feed corn.

Well how much is a bag of feed corn? It goes for $9.99 around here. Which means you can make 3 times as many batches for the same price. And starting out if something were to go wrong with a batch. You not out nearly as much.

These are the things that made me decide to go with feed wheat.

Good call on the feed, being my first time and all. I can buy a 50lb flake maize bag for 25$ so i might go that route to start... cracked corn is 15$ from the feed store.
