E/SE Nebraska Group Buy June/July 2014

[BigGoat]

That's some goat teamwork right there! Thanks

 

[BSDrews]

Anyone in omaha interested in a half bag split of Best Lt. Munich? Not super important if not done by the time we place the order.

 

[tmendick]

I'll take that split BSDrews.
Anybody else trying to do a split still?

 

[BSDrews]

Ok, Mr. Mendick, I am guessing you are Tom on the sheet? Ill go ahead and add half a bag to each of our orders.
Edit: Tom, would you like to also split my bag of Vienna? Not sure that I need a full bag.

 

[BigGoat]

Sf goat wanted to split some honey malt

 

[tmendick]

would you like to also split my bag of Vienna?.

I'd do Vienna as well. Not too versed on honey malt yet so I might hold off on that on for now unless no one else wants it.

I think I'm going to pass on the honey this time so no worries.

I've updated the sheets to the best of my abilities. Please check them out (the tabs at the bottom of the screen show your names). I'd like to get the order started tomorrow, cause it will take them a few days to get back to me. That way we can be paid and have grain by next Friday.

[BSDrews]

I updated mine, weights were right, costs didn't reflect the change in bag reduction. Also cleaned up the fruit portion but not sure if anyone was actually buying any. Thanks again for putting this all together Tre!

I'm placing a request for quote with the wholesaler to make sure we're not over one pallet for shipping purposes. There's a remote chance we'll need to drop a few bags, but I'll let you know. Otherwise we'd need to accumulate another 30 bags or so for the shipping to get back down to a decent per/lb. price. We had several last-minute additions, which is fine, just want to make sure we're getting the best price. I dropped my grain in order to help.

If we need to drop some let me know and I will drop a few of mine. I'm not hurting for grain by any means.

 

[Stovetop535]

I know mine was one of the last minute additions, if it bumps us up on a pallet I can drop it, no problem at all.

 

[tre9er]

we need to drop a few. SFGoat if you don't need some of the grain and can wait until Winter, let me know. Alex (Stovetop) has a buddy who probably needs the grain, I'm guessing, but if we're still over we'll re-assess.

I dropped 2 bags if you need to drop more let me know. I think you specified two bags in your email so thats what I went with. Are the fruit purees a problem as well? Or are those ok?

I *think* we're good. Waiting for confirmation. They said 42 bags was max but they could toss puree and hops on the top. We're at 41 bags plus puree and hops now. Will let everyone know.

 

[tre9er]

Order confirmed, invoices sent.

 

[BSDrews]

Payment sent from V***[email protected] not the email the invoice was sent to. Hope that doesn't cause any issues.

 

[sfgoat]

Paid

nope you're fine. I think as long as you use the link in the invoice email you can do it however you want.

 

[bbrim]

Thanks for setting things up again Tre. I'm all paid up and looking forward to some new recipes!

 

[BigGoat]

Paid up. Thanks a bunch Tre and sfgoat!

 

[dpatrickv]

Paid

 

[tre9er]

Order placed, confirmed, paid, and grain *should* be here Tuesday, but we'll see and I'll let everyone know the pickup plan.

 

[tre9er]

Grain has arrived. Five bags are damaged, to what extent I don't know because they delivered it to my residence instead of my work. Wife had to help the driver break down the pallet and stack grain in the garage

Driver indicated the forklift drivers smoke pot...he noted 5 bags damaged. Wife says hardly anything was lost, but we'll see.

Please see the email I sent and arrange with me for pickup. I will deliver up to 5 bags within Lincoln city limits for $5, more than 5 for $10.

 

[Stovetop535]

I will be in Lincoln Friday, I can pick up omaha grain to bring back for anyone who ordered in omaha.

Just let me know.

EDIT

I wont be able to meet up with Tre on Friday for grain. I have to be back in Omaha to work before he is available.

If you have space to pick up mine and BSDrews bags (total of 3 and one #1 of hops) that'd be awesome

I just want to make sure that everyone here knows about the 2014 Midwest Homebrew Invitational (Formerly Homegrown Homebrewers Festival).
It should be a lot a fun. Here is the HBT link that has some of the basic info and links to sign up.

Hey guys, I have a friend that has been sitting on 8-10 ball lock kegs and he would like to get rid of them. If there is anyone who would like them I will recondition them and offer them for sale. We'll ask $55 each, but I haven't seen them yet, so I will lower that if they are in bad shape. I'm posting here because I want to keep it local.

I may be interested in one or two.
