Just placed my order with makingbeerisfun.com for another pound of citra and simcoe. Thanks for the heads up
 
I just picked up a big order at Farmhousebrewingsupply.com. Good prices, reasonable shipping ($8 flatrate for me). He just got Citra, Amarillo and Simcoe in today. If I remember, there are 1lb packs of Citra and then 4oz packages of Amarillo and Simcoe pellets. I think you can do up to 8oz Amarillo and 2 lbs of Simcoe.

21.99 for Amarillo, 19.99 for Citra, and 18.99 for Simcoe. Nice prices.
 
Sweet, just got another pound of Citra from Farmhouse. I wish you could get a couple Lb's from the same place......all this shipping is killing me.:D

Its better than buying by the oz locally. My local shop is selling Amarillo for $4 an oz and they don't carry simcoe or citra.
 
True...It's still definitely better that the LHBS. I really like the people at mine, and I support them as much as possible, but double(or more) the price for hops is just too much.
 
+1 for the thanks for beerisfun ... I ordered a lb of citra and Amarillo because my lhbs can't get it,
 
I just bought Amarillo and citra from farmhouse supply yesterday and they are showing out today.
 
Anyone receive their makingbeerisfun orders? I'm just anxious, I'm sure it's on it's way.
nope. got an order confirmation e-mail, that's it. i've just written back asking when they'll ship my hops. i'll let you know if/when they reply.

according to http://makingbeerisfun.com/free_shipping.htm, "In-stock items generally ship the same day; delivery in 2 to 7 business days depending on zone." they are located in NJ so my order shouldn't take long to get to me once they ship it.

I ordered a pound of Simcoe from them Friday after seeing them mentioned in this thread. Opened up the mail box today and they were there! Shipped from Jersey to Kentucky in one "business day" by USPS. Ill order from them again!.

great news for you! kinda disappointing news for me, since i ordered on wednesday of last week (5 days ago), i live closer to NJ than you do, but i haven't received my hops yet.

if you only got one pound, i guess it means you paid for shipping... which might be the difference. i got free shipping, which might mean that they send it via sloth-n-snail.

I ordered on Tuesday morning (2 pounds of Citra) and haven't gotten it yet either (just outside of Philly so not that far for me either.) I'm thinking those may have been Cirtra pre-orders (even though it didn't say) and they are waiting to get them in. I'm still sitting with my fingers crossed that it comes through though.
 
Hopefully that means we will see ours soon.. However you only ordered Simcoe which might be the contributing factor here..

I ordered 2lbs of Citra and 2lbs of Amarillo.
 
I have not received my order from makingbeerisfun, but just got confirmation my farmhouse brewing supply order has shipped.
 
Yup...order was just a pound of simcoe...and I paid shipping. The citra orders sound like pre-orders to me.

Im still waiting on my amarillo from label peelers.

We have a good amount available of Citra and Amarillo pellets and Simcoe whole leaf at ********* . Should have more Citra whole leaf next week.

In one pound bags? If so how much.

Which one? All the prices are on the website. I don't think we have any Amarillo or simcoe whole leaf in pounders. But we definitely have Amarillo pellets in pounders.
 
Got my shipment notification from makingbeerisfun last night also..
I am curious though because I had ordered a total of 4lbs of hops, and the shipment notification said the package was 1lb.

Mine said the same. I think most vendors don't enter the correct weight when they enter it into the UPS system - they just let UPS weigh it and make the correction after the fact.
 
I ordered last Wednesday and haven't received confirmation yet. I really hope I get them before the weekend, I have a citrus hop burst planned for Friday, I may have to change out to a cream ale if they don't arrive. I live in NJ so USPS is 1 day here usually.

I ordered a lb each of citra and Amarillo :(
 
But we definitely have Amarillo pellets in pounders.
in which case they're definitely not listed on your site. i just did a search for amarillo and only ounces were shown. your prices are relatively high, unfortunately.

btw forum rules state that you can't advertize without paying for a vendor membership.

Yep same here, says 1 lb.

In my store we try to get the weight close, but UPS will check and correct it. Some places don't bother at all.
Mine are due to be here today, If they make it I'll post if I got my whole order( Citra and Amarillo)
 
I got an email yesterday morning about my makingbeerisfun order. They ran out of amarillo and offered to substitute other hops for it and give me a 10% discount. I opted for a refund of the amarillo price and just cross my fingers that my citra arrives. I do need more cascade but i didnt think their price was all that great TBH.

I probably won't buy from them again, mostly because they didn't ship my order or send me an email saying when it would ship, etc. No way to grab order status, and when I emailed them the email bounced. I'll stick with my LHBS and the bigger websites.
 
Are Amarillo or Citra expected to show up at some of the big mail order companies? I'm still trying to get my hands on a pound of each.
