Wagz I know we had a split worked out...roasted barley and black malt? Confirmed.
am I involved in any other splits I need to confirm?

Ghoti so far I have two buyers that haven't confirmed their initial hop split with me. One of them hasn't had any activity since the very beginning of the group buy. If I don't hear back from them soon I can sub you in, if still desired? Unless I fill both spots however I'm going to cancel the order.
EDIT:
I take that back, just one buyer Docgineer hasn't confirmed yet.

We'll call that done, but respectfully let's see how ylpauls order processes since you queried him first. We can work our deal out up to day of delivery.

Bmason,
When I log in now to the group buy site I no longer see a message that says "current group buys" or "current group buys you are in" like it has for the past two weeks. So am I in? Or has something changed? I thought I was in for 1 bag Thomas Fawcett MO, one bag light Munich best Malz, one bag Great Western 2-row, and one bag Pilsener.
D I need to do something, or am I in?

Cadwallion,
I'm still good for 1lb of NB and 1lb of Cascade.

Updated. I am just waiting on confirmation from Demon, Kieran, and Jgrove10 and both splits are all set.
Randar, you're confirmed. If you can get a crap load of sacks again (not necessarily a full pallet) we can wait for you. Talk to your brew club and see if they are interested. I will close this tonight if I don't hear back from you.

Here's a dumb question: Any idea on the anticipated delivery date? Is it usually on the weekend or during the week? I am curious since my wife and kids seem to account for 99% of my free time these days...

Their rationale is that all of the home brewers would run up orders on hops which are already in tight supply. We can buy hops that are in stock but that's about it. Also, some prices, mainly for hops I was told, have gone up. Once we get the quote we will adjust if we need to.

Thanks for looking into this. That said I don't see the logic of what they're saying. If we want a 2014 contract for 500 lbs of hops the only thing it potentially hurts is retail prices. MCM makes the same markup they'd make no mater who buys and supply side has ample time to react and plant more acres if they want.
This reeks of the same stench as Briess products. The price increase in hops he's talking about better be incremental ~5% and not gouging.
If MCM won't do it, some other broker will.
bmason1623 said:I will investigate a few places for hop contracts next week. Just out of curiosity, how many pounds do you guys think we could order?
Well how many did we have for this buy? 55, 66 pounds maybe? Multiply by four or five times a year and I think that would be a conservative estimate.
