CDbrews, good point. The two cons I'm thinking are the trub issue as you said and spillage from a sloppy pour. How long does it take to siphon 10 gallons roughly speaking.

Thanks cravej, I appreciate everyone's advice and suggestions. I have a siphon and that will be plan B if I don't like how my test goes. Plan A is faster but risky and plan B is slower but safer.

agodfrey11, are you pouring that alone or with help? A 1/2 keg has perfect handles both on top and on the bottom for two people to get a steady pour going, or so that's my thoughts. I'll give it a test run and see how it goes.

lordura, I may have missed it in the thread, would you mind another post describing how those who want to use paypal should direct their funds ? thanks

Count me in for 1 sack of CM-2ROW thanks

Are you waiting for a full bulk order to lock the price ? Apparently the grain market are going sky high and could theoretically double in a few months... all things being relative this will still be cheaper over retail regardless what the price is. I'm guessing you can't lock pricing until you...
