Hello
Kyle and I have been talking about transferring group buy responsibilities to me. Since taking my new position at
http://amwinesupplies.com , actually wine and beer supplies, Kyle has been very busy. I asked the owners and they welcomed it with open arms. Prices will stay the same for the most part. Splits will have to be done by you. Your welcome to do them in our new large store. I was thinking of only ordering a sack for a split when it's at 75%. The store can absorb the other 25% if needed.
I'm thinking March would be a good time to do the next group buy. TRASH may have their meeting at the store too, so some can hit two birds with one stone. We will open on a Sunday to do the grain buy and meeting, you will have free reign on the store and winery. We will give 10% off for you as well.
As I get ready to stock the grain room for the store, please let me know what you would like to see. This store is here to serve you, so let me know what you need to see here. We offer wine and some beer tastings as well and have a knowledgeable staff.
Some changes though. If you order bulk Star San or any chemical that is ORM, you will have to split the bulk containers off site. There is a liability and we can't do it on site.
A great change is the ability to call the store and pay via credit card.
So yes you have read this right, a LHBS will be doing a group bulk grain buy. As I said prices will remain as they are unless there is a increase in cost. We are hoping to be the "friendly" LHBS in the Pittsburgh area. We will also be offering classes and demonstrations though out the year.
Thanks
Pat
