I thought something like that was going on. Received, thank you!

Everyone has paid my splits.

 

[rpfuror]

payment sent... I needed to monitor things more I guess.

 

[masonsjax]

Funnycreature / Bigbeavk, if one of you is getting Reddskinnfan's grain, could you also grab my 15# and CaptainAl's 20# while you're at it please?

 

[shoshin]

Are really you looking for an extra 5# or is it just an offer in case there was a leftover? Someone may be able to help you

Sorry, I realized I hadn't replied to this ... just trying to help out, no real need for an extra 5#

Funnycreature is picking up for Redskinfan.

I sure can pick up your 2 orders. Please send a note to Stonebrewer and Islandlizard and let them know I have your permission to pick up for you. Keep in mind I leave June 6th for vacation and will return the following weekend.

Bigbeavk...thanks for taking care of collecting our grains. I live 1/2 mile from Redskinfan so wherever I need to pickup my grains is fine. I have 15# of Smoked Wheat and 5# of DME coming. I can also hold Masonsjax's grains for pickup at my place. PM me if you want to make arrangements offline.

Stonebrewer/Islandlizard, just let me know if this serves as authorization for Bigbeavk/Funnycreature to pickup my grains. If not I can PM you as well.

Thanks everyone!! I really was looking forward to being there and meeting everyone. Schedule is a mess these days. Hopefully next time.

[masonsjax]

Thank you Keith. I'm not rushed to get my grain, no worries there. If Al or Mike end up with it that's fine, I'm down that way somewhat regularly.

 

[JodyLondon]

Unfortunately, I'll be working on the 31st. I will send a proxy to pick up my grain. I'm sad I wont get to drink a beer with all you fine gentlemen.

 

[stevedasleeve]

Tony is picking up my sacks... I'm still in the land of whiskey, hills, rain, kilts, and cask ales...!

 

[AfroHopster]

What are the pick up hours

 

[shoshin]

If we're keeping a list, I'm picking up for Petey44

Frits, will you have a list of all the splits? I'll be happy to pick up whatever fits in the car.

 

[funnycreature]

As I was cleaning the basement last weekend I realized that I might have more bottles than I need (since I started kegging a while back). I think I can part with at least two cases of bottles, all delabeled, cleaned, and "StarSaned". Please let me know if anyone here is interested!

BigBeavK - Will you be able to distribute some of your fancy buckets again? After my basement flooded I realized that keeping the grains in those is the way to go... Thanks!

 

[IslandLizard]

Frits, will you have a list of all the splits? I'll be happy to pick up whatever fits in the car.

I make labels for all the splits, per sack, you've seen them. Then I make reconciliation sheets for all the splits, per buyer, so everyone can check what they're supposed to leave with.

Tony does the full sack distro.

With the back seat down, you can fit quite a lot of stuff in a Prius. 10 sacks is no problem. Now the buckets take up a relatively lot of space, but even 10 should not be a problem either, even with 6-10 sacks.

I could find a home for any amount of bottles at this point. I'd be interested in taking them or splitting them with other folks if they're interested too.

 

[TreefrogPhD]

Thanks everyone. All have paid for their portion of the wheat split I started. This grain buy all "heated" up last week when I was very ill so the timing was poor but we all got it worked out. Didn't help that I am a noobie and unsure what all to do! Thanks again Reddskinsfan, ovenfreshbread, and Ldobbs66! ewrzesinski will be there Saturday making sure you get your fair share as I will be busy judging a homebrew comp in Virginia.

Cheers!

Jim

Sounds good! I'll have them ready.

ALERT!! ALL ON BUY #8 PLEASE READ

I just got an email from our buyer and he said there is a chance the order will not ship this week due to the holiday. We won't know for sure until Friday. I'll let you know as soon as I hear what the status is...sorry to bear potentially bad news.

 

[novahokie09]

This is fine with me. I'd prefer pickup on 6/7 anyway.

 

[IslandLizard]

Strange how things go.
6/7 is way better for many of us, from listening in to the grapevine.

Perhaps if we get enough people here saying it out loud...

I am all for the later pickup. I can be there that day to assist!

Excellent! Glad you've recovered.

Those 3 all marked as "received" 5/27.

 

[shoshin]

6/7 won't work for me. I was going to pick up this weekend for Petey44. Petey44, would you be able to make it on 6/7 for the pickup? If so, would you be willing to pick up a sack and three splits (total: 25# splits) for me? If not, I live in Baltimore and would be willing to drive wherever needed to pick up my grain if someone else wanted to take it for me.
