AHS Membership

[daveooph131]

I'm thinking about getting the Austin Homebrew membership to save on shipping/yeast. Anyoe have this? Is it worth it?

I've got a membership, and i think it's already paid for itself after 2 orders. I don't have the capability to store any yeast that I've washed from a pervious batch, so I'm always having to buy new yeast. I believe the membership was 24 dollars and I've already used 2 free shippings and a free yeast pack, which totals about $22.

I've still got 2 more free yeasts and 4 more free shippings, so I'm gonna get moneys worth. Just be warned, you can't but a membership, then use all your free shippings in 6 weeks. They actually spread them out once per month for 6 months.

A good to know about how they space it out. But I mean if you order every month you'll be able to get free shipping and or yeast right?

Might wanna change the title to AHS Membership. Kinda insinuates this is about that American Homebrewers Association.

Yes. Every two months you're allotted a free shipping coupon code and a free shipping plus free yeast coupon code. It comes out to be a 65$ value or something close.

Nope, sorry budddd. Try working and typing - just as dangerous though.

Have to check into the AHS membership, I didn't even know they offered one.

Well worth it for me. I've got one more yeast + shipping to redeem next month.
I'll probably purchase another one for sure.

Through the AHA, I won a 4,000 dollar trip to brewing school. I'd say it was worth it for me.

 

[carnevoodoo]

OH, AHS. Nevermind.

I need to get a membership sounds like a good deal. I buy 1 to 2 kits with yeast a month so it would save me money. Saving money on shipping and yeast = i can buy more brewing gear = Happy Brewer
