That is both sucky and suspicious... That said the organic is still 50% of northern brewers per oz cost of $3.30.

Sazz, magnum, and Northern brewer are also gone!!!!!!! That kills most of our hop splits.
I tell you what, at this rate I think I'm investing in the creation of a large hop farm/ processing facility west of the burbs! Anyone else in?

Looking at alternative sources, Label Peelers has Nelson in stock for $25.19/lb, if the (2) 11lb boxes fall through at MCM, maybe that place will cut us a break. They also have Saaz, Magnum, and Northern Brewer. Shipping is $65/88lbs or $30/44lbs so it's roughly $1.35-$1.45/lb extra cost. Certainly not as cheap as before, but maybe someone will work with us.
Finally, Bill, this new rep is full of sh*t. Third bullet point on page 12 is "Our total contract minimum is 88 pounds, mix or match varieties per contract year."

Neopol said:The other question is .. if we hold the hop order when is the next shipping time?..as I recall the last time we tried to get NS , they were unavailable at time of ship and then mysteriously available again right after. Matt are you going to try to negotiate with Label Peelers? Or should I call them, I should have time later today.
nwestby said:What's the status of the group buy? Are still adding to it?
Time box? Please elaborate.
The buy is close however you should be able to see your previous buys that you participated in. I sent ghoti an email on this. Hopefully, it's a quick fix.

Inevitably, there will be one person who drops out so you may still be able to get in.
Neopol said:Bill, please take the liberty to drop anything in my order that you need to. I am still planning to contact a vendor or two, to see what we can get in terms of bulk hop pricing, if anyone has recommendations or contacts, please submit an RFQ or some info and I'll chase it.
Thank you.
