Maybe people are waiting to see what NCM comes up with?

I wouldnt hold my breath on that one.

 

[robfar]

I thought we were up to 82 bags on the last order that never happened. That's seems to be a lot demand that vanished.

 

[zomanb]

I'm in for
1 x rahr 2-Row Brewers Malt
1 x weyermann Pilsner

Thanks, Zo

 

[stonebrewer]

We are now at 30 sacks. 10 more and I close this buy out and order.

 

[climateboy]

So if we are going only from the Jay's list, does that mean no crystal malt splits are possible? Still interested in those.

This I need some 60L too.

 

[stevedasleeve]

Ran out of of grain, brewing today so got me an (expensive!) sack to hold me over. Sorry to change my order Tony but please switch me from 3 sacks of 2-row to 2.

That is:

2 X rahr 2 row
1 X crisp MO

Thanks!

Steve

 

[stonebrewer]

climateboy & res291que: I will check on Crystal prices and get back to you.

stevedasleeve: no problem, when you gotta brew, you gotta brew bro!

We are at 33 as of this morning...

 

[res291que]

I need some crystal 60L was hoping to split a bag with someone. If we can't do crystal malts for awhile please let me know so I can pick up a few pounds to hold me over. Also still wondering about the questions asked in the original MD/DC grain thread.
Need 1 x Rahr 2 row brewers malt
1x Rahr white wheat

I thought we were up to 82 bags on the last order that never happened. That's seems to be a lot demand that vanished.

This is my reason only as I cant speak for everybody.

The new drive (Rockville) and new prices have made it not worth it unless I get a large order (which I don't need currently).

Here is my breakdown:

• Lowest 2 row grain price $41.18
• Driving 100 miles at 4 dollars a gallon (23 miles to the gallon) $16
• total price $57.18
• priced shipped from online retailer (midwest): $ 58.95 shipped (34.99 not shipped if i could walk into midwest).

I am not saying Stonebrewers efforts are not worth it, they are. We just need to order several bags to actually get any savings.


Edit - if we are going off Jay's list then 2 row is 4.19 cheaper then my list above (52.99 total, beating Midwest by 5.96). It would still take a few bags to make it a trip, which i will do when that time comes.

 

[Barnesie]

Can we pickup in manassas instead of Rockville?

 

[pagerage]

So just to be clear, we are only ordering off of Jay's list? The only thing I ordered off of his list was the 1x Rahr 2-row Pale Malt. I looked at his other price list and he has everything (I think) except the Carapils & 10L Crystal (he's gotta have them too) listed. When should we have his prices on these by the sack?
Thanks!

I'm in for:
1x Rahr 2-row Pale Malt
1x Briess Carapils
2x Briess Flaked Barley
1x Briess Flaked Wheat

I'm looking to split 1/2 on:
1x Briess 10L Crystal
1x Briess 60L Crystal
1x Briess Roasted Barley

its not worth it for people really far away, like fredrick.

 

[claphamsa]

ill take 2 of the cheaper pils....

 

[stonebrewer]

Quick update as I am mobile. We can get Briess DME for 115 plus tax for 50 lbs. We can get crystal for 45 plus tax for Briess. I will check on pagerage's request when I get back.

Pickup can be arranged in Manassas in advance if you can make it when I am doing the pickup. If you can't make it when I am there you will have to come to the pickup in Rockville. Remember I am going out of my way to help and the LHBS is doing us a huge favor, so if you want something outside of the norm you gotta work within the parameters I lay out.

 

[hustlebird]

When would you be doing the pickup? If its weekend I could definitely see myself heading out there.

 

[socal2009]

I'd like to add:

1 x crisp maris otter
1 x weyermann bohemian pilsner

 

[atjsparty]

If be in for 1/3 of a bag of C60, would go half if that was the only option.

 

[atjsparty]

Nevermind...pagerage just reminded me I already put my C60 request in. Long week!

 

[res291que]

Then can you add a bag of crystal 60L if someone wants to split cool if not I will take a full bag. Thanks

 

[stonebrewer]

I think we are at 40! Will verify when I ger home to verify with my spreadsheet. Will post tomorrow night with details. Will upload spreadsheet as well. Cheers all!

 

[masonsjax]

I'll split C60 with you.

 

[pagerage]

Could you please add to my order:

2x Briess Pilsen Light DME
1x Briess Bavarian Wheat DME

I'm in for:
1x Rahr 2-row Pale Malt
1x Briess Carapils
2x Briess Flaked Barley
1x Briess Flaked Wheat

I'm looking to split 1/2 on:
1x Briess 10L Crystal
1x Briess 60L Crystal
1x Briess Roasted Barley

I want at least half but if a couple folks want 1/4 that's cool too!

 

[res291que]

Ok cool masonsjax sounds good to me.

 

[pagerage]

I'm looking to split 1/2 on:
1x Briess 10L Crystal
1x Briess 60L Crystal
1x Briess Roasted Barley

Alright, Olive Drab and atjsparty are taking 1/4 each of the 10L & 60L and I have 1/2. atjsparty has 10 lbs of the Roasted Barley and I have the rest.

But 15 lbs Roasted Barley available if you need it!

 

[Olive Drab]

1 sack of light Dme

 

[stonebrewer]

OK gents, this thread will now close for further grain requests as we are over 40. I will open a second one once I get everything tallied and posted, as well as some more info from our HBS. I am trying to sort the thread out and ensure those who asked for grain get it in the order asked, as a couple may get left out until the next buy. I will post where the cutoff was later tonight and I will also post the order sheet as it is going to our supplier so you know what I think you ordered and what you owe. I talked to the owner today and he said it is a week to 10 days to get the order once he calls it in, so as soon as I have tracking information I will let you know when and where to pickup. The splits have been a real pain to track, so I want to find a better way to do that but have no ideas yet. Since I like to split from time to time, I won't discourage it.

 

[lockwom]

Subscribing so I can participate in the next group buy! Thanks for the hard work, stonebrewer

 

[stonebrewer]

Hey all. Still waiting for the HBS to get back to me. Some people asked for things that I don't have prices for so that is slowing me down a bit. Hopefully he will answer tomorrow, though it is Easter so he may not get back to me until Monday. Speaking of Monday, I think that is when he will call in our order.

Cheers!
