10 sacks left in the order.

jfrizzle, Clear your PM's, or PM me back. Thanks.

I'm back. Kent just sent me an email stating that he has space for 16 sacks left in the order. I'm getting ready to place my order. If you are interested in having me bring you back some grain, get in touch with me by PM.

Maybe it's a dumb question, but what's the reason for using flaked grains? Why could I not crush some cracked corn instead of using flaked corn? Why could I not crush whole oats instead of using flaked oats? Why could I not crush whole barley instead of using flaked barley? etc...

I just got an email from Kent stating that there are 22 sacks left to fill the pallet. I'm out of town this weekend. If there are slots left when I get back, I'll likely place my order then. Be thinking about what and how much you want. Thanks.

bumpity bump bump.

Cool. I'll probably let this thread run for a few weeks, and see how much interest there is, then go ahead and order in late June / early July. I'd like to see a total order of around 10-15 sacks. That way the fuel surcharge (just like the airlines!) will remain pretty cheap per bag. I'm...

BMC Bud Miller Coors It's a catch all that applies to cheap American Lagers in general.

Okay, I was just looking at my calendar with a realistic eye. I won't have a free Saturday till the second half of June. So you've got a few weeks.

He says they average an order every month. When I go depends on how much interest I get, and how soon his order fills up. (Read "I don't really know.") It looks like, at the latest, a month. Here's a cut and paste of the email he sent me. It explains it better than I could: Hi...

I'm giving some serious consideration to driving to St. Louis to purchase some malt in bulk from Missouri Malt Supply. (Thanks Brian S for the tip.) The thing is, it doesn't amount to any real savings for me to drive 500 miles round trip for a couple bags of malt. So, here is my...

So... what did you change?

I've done two 5 gallon batches. Making the total 455. I won't be making it again till I get set up for 10 gallon batches. It just seems such a waste to only make 5 gallons of something so delicious!

My refridgerated Irish Ale yeast was no longer viable apparently. I added my emergency back up Nottingham after about 16 hours. She is Krausening up nicely now.

Thanks. All sound like good suggestions. I'll explore my options and see what makes the most sense. Ditto on wanting to know where missouri malt supply is located.

So I'd like to buy a sack of Domestic 2 Row. Are there any good vendors I can get this from. I checked Morebeer dot com because of the free shipping offer, but in the shoping cart it stated that the item wasn't eligible for free shipping. Thanks.

I'm wrapping up my brew day on this one right now. I'll report back when it's in my glass. Hopefully I will have learned from Beerific's Kolsch, and be able to sit on at least a couple of sixers for six months for a long range report as well.

Update! So I was digging around under my stairs, having believed that I drank the last of my beer months ago, when I came upon a Christmas Miracle! Or at least a Memorial Day weekend surprise. Alas! One more sixer of Kolsch. Being that I was wrapping up my first brew day since winter...

I ended up leaving it alone. The AG variation turned out great. This beer likes to age for a month or two. I've been drinking this one off and on over the last month. I have the majority sitting under my stairs in the hopes that I can actually see what it tastes like six months from now.

Brewed it today. The only hang up I had is the 90 min boil evaporated my 6 gallons down to 4.5 instead of 5 like I'm used to. I suppose if I had taken a minute to think about it I'd have collected 6.5 gallons. She's in the primary right now doing her thing. When it comes time to rack over...
