I think so but I won't know until I try it.

cbaha · Mar 19, 2015

I'm in for a pound

cbaha · Mar 19, 2015

Can we pick these up instead of having them shipped?

rabbit76 · Mar 19, 2015

1# for me please

BlkWater_brewer · Mar 19, 2015

I'll take a pound shipped.

Schecter · Mar 20, 2015

In for a pound , pickup if possible , I'll have to get some Puckwudgie anyways

PJM · Mar 20, 2015

I would like 1# please

hoppus · Mar 20, 2015

I'll take 2# if they'll fit in a small box.

Thanks for doing this!:rockin:

fub4r3d · Mar 20, 2015

Count me in for 1#

Hello · Mar 20, 2015

So if I counted right, @scriv was the last member on the list making 39# accounted for. After that, another handful of members asked for a total of 8 pounds.

That said, if you can either PM your post your PP address, I'm happy to send money. Was the decision that shipping for a pound would be a flat rate of $5.50?

Thanks!

Awesome- please put me down for 2#, and I'll pay when you're ready. Thank you so much for doing this!

Miss Yooper - what will you do with all that Mosaic? I've only used it in one beer so far in combination with Pacific Jade. Have you ever used it as only hops?
Sorry for seemingly going off-topic but if I can find other uses for it I might get convinced to get one more # as well. :mug:

singybrue · Mar 20, 2015

In for a penny, in for a pound!

Soeze · Mar 20, 2015

I would like a pound if still available. Would you please bump my order to two. Sorry for the update

Quincy · Mar 20, 2015

I'll take a pound, you have paypal?

TBC · Mar 20, 2015

I'll take a pound if still available. Thanks

I've only used it once.

But...........on Saturday we had a wonderful beer called Yellow Rose by Lone Pint Brewery (from Magnolia, TX) while we were road tripping at Jester King/Stanley's Farmhouse Pizza around Austin.

Here's the description:
Yellow Rose
A SMaSH, Single Malt and Single Hop, IPA using a caboodle (technical term for a large amount of malt) of malt and a new hop released in 2012 called Mosaic (HBC 369). It is a daughter of Simcoe (YCR 14), one of our favorite hops. Whole cone Mosaic is used for bittering, flavoring, and aroma in the kettle; it is also massively dry hopped. The beer is named after a Texas Heroine.
Tasting notes: chalk-white head with a very clean malt backbone. The hops impart strong grapefruit, pineapple, and blueberry flavor and aroma. A strong beer that is extremely quaffable.
ABV: 6.8% IBUs: 62

And that's been my experience with mosaic. It had a distinct grapefruit to it, but not as single dimension like cascade or amarillo. It was fruity, but not tropical like citra or like 'jolly ranchers' like el dorado. It has a depth to it that we love, but not sweet or weird, and not too flowery like some hops have.

I guess that is why it's 'mosaic'- there is a lot going on there. I make 10 gallon batches, and lots of IPAs/APAs, so a pound of hops does go quick for me.

You convinced me! I find over time the flavor qualities changes dramatically from strawberry to grapefruit etc.

crazyirishman34 - would you please bump my order to 2# as well?

Funnycreature and I will have all 4# that we are ordering sent to his house in a single box, to save on shipping. Can you split them up into single pound bags though?

spetp · Mar 20, 2015

Can I also be added to the list for #1?

Schecter · Mar 20, 2015

Yeah I just counted. I think I'm out of luck, shoot.

smcinco · Mar 20, 2015

I will take as much as you can fit in a medium flat rate box (assume 4-5#). Thanks!

Mark_tries_brewing · Mar 20, 2015

All gone? I'll take one if not but figuring I'm most likely too late.

crazyirishman34 · Mar 20, 2015

So up to this point I have everyone. I have opened up a 3rd bag to folks. If you ordered more then one pound I am going to put the order into one bag. If you must have more then one bag add $1 per pound for the bag and time. I should be able to get 4 to 5 pounds in a medium box. I am HOPING that I can get 2 pounds in a small box that is not a guarantee. If you are local and want to pick up I will bring the hops to the grain buy and you can pick them up there. It would be great if a local person or persons could come help divvy the hops up.

With that said, just put a 4# for Funnycreature and I into one bag. We can split when they arrive.

grrickar · Mar 20, 2015

I'll take a pound if there are any left to be had. Did I miss how we pay - assuming Paypal?

agrazela · Mar 20, 2015

How'd I fricking miss this? If there's still any to be had, I'll take a pound.

Helly · Mar 20, 2015

I would do 1 pound if this is still available. Thanks.

crazyirishman34 · Mar 20, 2015

ok everyone up till here is on the list. There are 3 pounds left on the last bag. If someone local will help me bag up and box orders I would be open to one more bag. Also payments need to be done in paypal or cash. If you are using PayPal it needs to either be sent with out the fee or you need to pay the fee. I am well known as I run the NE Grain Buy and have brought more then 100k lbs of grain into New England for home brewers. Also to make my life easier I am going to get some click and ship labels that is going to add $.50 to each box so a small box would cost $6 and a medium would cost $12. I think that I can fit 2# in a small and 5# in a Med.

hooterjbrew · Mar 20, 2015

I'll take 1#

brick_haus · Mar 20, 2015

I'll take the last two pounds.
