Akadama DRL what the status is?

**plamski** · 05-23-2012, 07:33 PM

Are there some news about Akadama DRL ?
Can we expect to be available soon or there is good substitute already?

I have ten bags. Two are on the way right now. PM if you need some. He is sending me another product that comes from the same mine as DRL. Gonna try it out and see what happens.

Tim be careful the other bag is heat treated, and the DRL is not. I do not think it will hold up as well.

He is just sending a sample to try. My first two bags will be here tomorrow. Did you get yours straightened out?? I insured mine with tracking and delivery confirmation. Let me know.
