Bill, saw your post on GW and did a little more research. Over here in Germany it's hard to find molasses. The best source I have found is the EM (Effective Microorganism) sites that use it to make their EM1. I got 5 liters for about 12 euro's. Here's a link from the EM folks concerning molasses types and sources that might interest. Ami
