Thanks guys, got what I needed from hops direct and Yakima... Still struggling with the shipping costs though ugh

Thank you - these guys are good and is who I was thinking off that I typically order from ... It's hop union that threw me off earlier.

I called them today and they no longer sell directly to homebrewers. What site do you use to buy from there? They used to be my go to...

Hi everyone, Looking for a good online store to buy hops by the pound for the 2016 crop preferably. In particular, looking for leaf/whole cone hops in the Citra and Simcoe variety. Thanks!!

I was on there earlier today - okay great, yeah that's the info I am looking for. I'll check it out there, appreciate the tip.

Hi everyone, Just moved to the Clay/Baldwinsville/Liverpool NY area and was wondering if anyone in the same area has a water analysis report handy??? I am brewing in two weeks and I won't have my water analysis report back by then... looking for a general starting point for my brew salts...

Another question, as it's a fourth year plant, it has produced some pretty dank cones to date... Will transplanting it basically be hitting the restart button with cone production? I imagine because of the plant needing to regrow it's root system this might take a year or two before it's back...

Thanks for the tips, yes moving same area just out to the burbs. I'm hoping to get them planted asap at the new place, just want to get a feel for the best place sunlight wise to plant them. I was thinking about putting them in a 5 gallon bucket with a lot of dirt and fertilizer to keep them...

I'm moving in a week and have a 4 year old hop plan I'd love to dig up and bring with me to my new place. Any suggestions on the best way to transplant/store the hops to plant at the next place? My plan is to dig up the roots this weekend and store them some how until I find the best place...

Enjoy the brew, it's delicious!

That's awesome, what kind of would? No issues with the burners toasting the wood at all? From the pics it looks like you have the burners elevated a bit.

I like that stand... Got any instructions on how to rebuild that?

Gotcha do when you figured that out was your gravity back on target? I'm still trying to figure out what the best mash profile is to use in beersmith and adjust accordingly.

Did you ever figure this out? I am on my second run with my herms setup and I'm getting terrible efficiency... I do think part of it is due to my mash profile I'm using with beer smith however I think I still have quite a bit of fine tuning to do with it. My house ipa was a whole point off OG...

Gotcha, makes sense... Yeah my first run with the system I think I did that... Expected a much higher starting gravity, especially on a herms

Okay thank you, I was wondering about that if I should slow the speed a bit... Would you go as far as saying the slower speed has given you better efficiency?

Okay cool, I may give that a shot... I do half barrel batches and I've got one run in on the system. Looking to fine tune now and hoping the right mash profile helps out.

Hello, Any suggestions on a Mash Profile to use for a HERMS system? I am currently using a Temperature mash profile but looking for help if this is the best to use for Beersmith. To Note: HERMS system is semi-automated. I do not have a controller yet so I raise the temperature...

If anyone has any Blichmann burner leg extensions kicking around/retired/out of use please let me know. I am borrowing a friends Blichmann floor burner for my second burner on my herms setup and would prefer not to pay retail for the legs. Thanks!

I have a 70 quart cooler that I converted and just retired. Has been wonderful for me. I'm in Syracuse ny though so I'd have to ship it.
