we're at 15 bags so far not including any splits or Nillo's CHAOS brewing club order.

Demon, I know I mentioned that if I wasn't ordering anything for myself that I didn't want to handle the money. I was wondering if you could make an exception and allow me to order a bag or two yet you still handle the money? Let me know.
 
Ok, just enetered Niilo's order and mine. We're up to 20 bags. I have an email out for another person an am awaiting their response. Ask around if anyone needs grain, hops, cleaning supplies, etc.
 
I will split half a sack of pils! Woohoo! On condition that it not be Canadian. I'd prefer BestMalz but will also do Franco Belges.

Also, I would really really like to split a sack of Vienna or Munich with someone. Please PM me and lmk.

Btw, I'm in Niilo's brewclub and received grain from the last buy. Thanks a bunch. This helps a lot. I'm trying to get some interest going in splitting specialty grain with our club, but there's been very little response. I'll let them know that there's interest in Chocolate and Rauch on here and see if there are any bites. I think some of us are looking to split Crystal 60 and Rice Hulls. We have two for each so far if anyone wants to buy in for a third.

Also, I'll buy in for a third of Chocolate.

Oh, by the way, Niilo and bmason, this is Daniel.

Cool, put me down for a half sack of bestmalz pils then. Thank you.
 
2 for franco-belges vienna then. I'll make sure it gets put in, either through niilo or demon.

Daniel, maybe you can keep a running tab on CHAOS in conjunction with Niilo.

spreadsheet has been updated. PLEASE check to make sure I've included everything that you want.
 
Anyone that still needs links for the spreadsheet or pricing please pm me. Thanks.
 
we're at 25 bags. does anybody want to split some rice hulls with me? I would take 20# and they come in 50# sacks. let me know.
 
I have at least one more split sack order to submit, maybe more, will let you know soon.
 
Unless we get a last minute surge in orders, we might want to set a cut off date sometime after Labor Day. Chief Kellen, are you still planning on placing an order?

Just updated the spreadsheet around 9:15 pm Chicago time (9/01/11). we're at 27 bags. let's see if we can get 42 bags, folks!
 
Remember, we need at least 40 bags to get the price break of 2200 pounds. Anything less and the prices are higher due to the lower quantity break.
 
I would vote to just let it ride until it hits the 40 bag mark. I have some people in my club that might be interested, but they're farther West than I am, so I don't know about coordinating the pick up. I'll let them know, but my other friend is on vacation right now until next week sometime.
 
I'd vote to wait too. We're having a club meeting on the 11th of Sept. Niilo and I could make sure to advertise it then.
 
eh. I rescind my vote to wait since I realized the discount is only 3 cents to the lb. If you get two sacks you'll be saving a whopping 3 dollars. It's a nice break but I don't see us accumulating 13 more sacks any time soon at this rate. You won't see much more from me and Niilo's guys at least is my guess.
 
As much as the price break would be nice for a full pallet, I'm more than willing to pay an extra ~3 bucks per sack if we don't get there. Maybe we should give it another week to ten days, and then just go forward with the buy.
 
Demon, should we make the cut off date next monday, september 12th?

Everyone, keep in mind that the delivery cost per bag is $78/n where n = number of bags ordered.

I'm good with September 12 cutoff.

OK. September 12th is the cutoff. Everyone review your order. Now is a good time to maybe increase your order since this may be the last buy (that I'm involved with anyway) until next spring.
