Awesome - and thanks man!

I talked my buddy into 1 bag of CM-2ROW, that should seal the deal!
Thanks walker - I think we will see more and more of this crap going forward; homebrewers getting cut out of the bulk stuff that is...
MO is so worth it. Spring for the T-F.
Say, could you throw a couple one pound packages of Dark Candi Dark belgian sugar on there for me? I've been having a bear of a time finding it and I have a quad i want to make soon and age all summer.
North Country Malt said that they are trying to work it out with Briess so that they can sell to homebrewers in the future. NCM doesn't have any info on why Briess doesn't want the grain sold to homebrewers, but they are obligated to follow Briess' request.
That c20 split only needs 1, right?
Cidahwe still doing the 6er exchange?
CidahMastah said:OK just a heads up for people - if they know they need to fund paypal or something.
This is an estimate - I would guess maybe a little higher with gas prices if they add on a fuel surcharge.
CidahMastah $124.84
Brewdiver $163.08
Gergelat $78.36
twogunz $207.82
BigBrew54 $41.36 - Briess substitute bag needed, so not accurate estimate
Brehuh $119.35
stunsm $82.83
BrewsCampbell $78.87
Smashing $99.43
WPStrassburg $85.40
JayMckeever $128.96
wheadman66 $147.98
rustbucket $33.60
Jhenderson $99.51
(I should note - this is missing one bag for BigBrew54 - need to hear from him for his substitution before I can submit the order to the buyer).
Please take this time to read the payment instructions if you are a first time buyer - it is CRUCIAL that you follow them so the buyer doesn't get charged fees for helping us out.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!
Does that make me the winner? I'm heading out of town for the weekend so if you get final costs I most likely won't submit paypal until Monday.
Yeah that should be pretty sweet - looking forward to it for sure. I have a good amount of variety right now. Beyond 3 sixers, it will be tough for me to do, running out of certain stuff.

Cidah,
Question on your canning jars with yeast... did you vacuum seal them? I have a ton of jars right now that I'm wanting to use for the yeast the same way. I've been making large starters and decanting a little bit of it into each jar and storing that way. How do you do it and is the viability long?
With the frozen yeast, do you typically need to make a starter for each? Storage is just to freeze as low as you can, then thaw at room temp, pitch in starter and grow?
I have most of those yeasts right now - you should see my refridge. Loaded with canning jars filled with washed yeast.
Is the lacto infection from one of the frozen yeast strains?
I mix in about 20% glycerin, and use an inoculation gun to store in 10ml vacutainers in the freezer, get about 16 from a smack pack. Thaw em out, and pitch into a flask on the stir plate with sterile, canned starter wort, first 300mL then step up to 1L. I can stuff my pressure cooker with 14 starters at a time, 7 in pint jars with 300mL, 7 in quart jars full at 1L. I don't think the lacto is from the yeast, as it only shows up in secondary after 3 or 4 weeks, but either from milling my grains a few feet from my fermenters, or from my transfer hose/disconnects being a little funky before I replaced them a few days ago (more likely).

I was just asking someone about this.
What is your pressure canner time for the wort - I am even considering doing sterilized water for washing like this (no wait time for cooling).
is it 10 psi presser?
For how long?
I assume you leave the typical 1/2 inch headspace
I figure the sterilization gold standard is 250ºF (15 psi) for 15 minutes, and have stuck with that. The quart jars get a 1/2" headspace, the pint jars have quite a bit more as I like the 300mL starter volume, being ~2/3 the volume of a 500mL flask. The DME at the higher temp seems to darken/caramelize a little more, but I haven't noticed a color contribution from the 1.3L total, in even cream ale. It's really awfully nice to pop a jar and get your starter whirling in all of about 15 seconds...
Hi,
If Brewdiver goes to 50% on the C20 then that's complete and will offset one of Smashings pulled sacks, Right?
Cheers!
