never got a text response!

 

[stonebrewer]

Sorry...I don't look at the work phone at home on the weekends anymore. Need to give you my personal cell # next time we meet up.

If anyone wants to meet this week, please let me know when and where. I just got home about 15 minutes ago from work, so I need a heads up in advance...sigh...work sux!

 

[IslandLizard]

Yes, please!

I can bring you a pint (or more) of the 85% concentrate to the next meet, but that will be a while. In the mean time, see if you can score some from someone else closer by (sweetcell perhaps), to hold you over. I know some of our guys have it. Masonsjax does too. We're talking 5 ml per 10 gal batch, max! Hopefully quite a bit less.

It's important to know what your brew water is like. Then plug it into a water calculator to find your mineral and acid additions. A pH meter can help a lot to get it more exact. If in doubt, you can run a small test mash, like half a pound or so and meter the pH in that before committing the whole batch.

Yup, the plan is to get some and then buy a quart from Duda.

 

[masonsjax]

I do have some 85% I can share. I might be passing through the area Sunday evening. I'll be in touch.

 

[reddskinnfan]

If so that would be cool. Hopefully I'll have your grain in hand.

 

[reddskinnfan]

Yup...about 2 weeks ago. I am sure some of it is beer now.
