Don’t they only sell Breiss DME/LME? So we can buy Breiss products just not their grain? And do you know if we can get fruit puree and spices this time around?

This is the email that I received from MCM:

"We can sell home brew clubs the light malt extract (liquid or dry). We cannot sell the other dry/liquid malt extract varieties or any of the Briess grains to the clubs per Briess."

So it sounds like the only Breiss product available to us is light DME or LME. Still waiting to hear back on the other stuff that is listed on the home brewers catalog which Demon will pass on the link to those participating.

Per MCM:

"Everything in the home brew catalog is available to you. The commercial catalog is the restricted catalog. All Briess and BrewCraft items are unavailable to the home brew clubs per the vendors.
So, if the vendor is Briess or BrewCraft then no, not available. If you would like to purchase San Fransisco Herb products that is completely fine.
As mentioned yesterday, the only Briess products available are the Light Pilsen dry and liquid malt extracts."

Ask Demon for the catalog link.

Would anyone be interested in splitting some chocolate malt?

I thought there would be more interest in another group buy. Maybe it's too soon after the last one. I think 20 sacks would be the minimum if we can't get the ideal 42 sacks. Just keep in mind that the shipping cost is $78 and the more sacks we get on an order the cheaper the shipping costs per sack. So if you want to stock up for the fall/winter now's your chance. Ask your brewing buddies if they want to get in. Let's make this happen again! Thanks.
