    Houston Group Grain Buy #3

    I'm going to email everyone from the first group buy to get this going. This is just a shameless bump to get more attention to the thread. Edit: Now that I look at the thread it looks like most of the people from the first group buy are on here, sorry for the annoying email.

    Houston Group Grain Buy #3

    Cool I was thinking about starting this up myself, now I don't need to. I'd be in for, 1 - TF‐OPTC 1 - CM‐SPIL 1/2 - BD‐CR55 1/3 - BD‐CR75 1/3 - BZ‐ARO 1/3 - CM‐WHET If no one wants to split the aromatic I would be willing to split a bag of dark munich instead.

    Anyone actually successfully harvest Chimay yeast from 12 oz bottle?

    Me? Hope I responded in time. I was worried the chimay wouldn't be able to give me a dry enough finish so I added about half the smack pack into a starter and then added it at krausen. It did not cause vigorous activity but the carboy has not stopped swirling since. Not sure if their working in...

    Houston Group Grain Buy #2

    Few other things I didn't say in my email: Though you could figure out by calling that number I gave you I believe it was shipped out of NC like you have. To set up the account I think you have to talk to their head office in New York. Also though you probably remember don't stress about the...

    Anyone actually successfully harvest Chimay yeast from 12 oz bottle?

    I can mirror your results of very dark yeast. I made a starter with just one 11.2 oz bottle dregs and thought it was not working for a day or two until I saw minor krausen forming. I stepped it up 2 or 3 times but never got very active fermentation. I put it into a grand reserve clone I made...

    Houston, TX Group Buy

    So the grain is supposed to arrive in Galveston tomorrow. I'm going to email everyone my address and phone number. I'm guessing saturday is going to be best for most people to get there stuff, so we should decide on a time frame to get it or atleast tell me what you think is best for you so I...

    Good news everyone, grain shipped today, not really sure when it will get here though(guessing friday because they gave me an estimate of two days before). Unfortunately they inform me that homebrewers only get the 1,000lb pricing for some reason, I'm kind of skeptical of this since it doesn't...

    Yeah dumb mistake by me, really just the larger buyers that I might want a little money from since there fee was more in the $5-$10 range.

    Houston, TX Group Buy

    Want to keep everyone up to date, I received payment from everyone except Ravenshead who I'm assuming is not in the country but he's only got two bags so I'll cover him for now and see about reimbursement later. If anyone's friends with him let me know, might be easier to get the grain to him...

    It's supposed to come on Wednesday, I'm hoping the afternoon because I'm going to be busy in the morning. If you're available I'm sure an extra person couldn't hurt unloading/sorting the grain. Its just getting dropped off at my Dad's office. I'm going to probably fill his truck up and take it...

    Ok emailed or PM'd everyone about paying. Will keep you up to date on payment and delivery. I will probably just keep the grain at my house if everyone wants to come get it/split it on the weekend.
