I'm having trouble searching for the oak spirals. I was able to find the toasted oak chips so that's what I added but I tried searching using the keywords Spirals, Wood, Oak and they aren't coming up.

I suggest you use the item ID in the search and see what happens.
 
Just search oak, then they all come up. Just tinkering, its allowing chips now and the last few buys they were not avail to us. I'll leave em on my order to see; if rejected..just nix em.

Added. This closes out both splits, everyone who has not confirmed (list in post #472) please do so here or via PM. I will PM everyone involved with my paypal address and individual cost once Bill gives confirmation of the order.

Confirming 1# NB
 
Just found out that hop contracts *are* available to home brewer group buys. However, the minimum order would be 330 pounds or 30 boxes (at 11 pounds). Do I sense a hop contracts group buy in the works?

Just spoke to the new sales rep at Country Malt who handles our area. He is going to look into hop contracts and see if they are available for us in significantly smaller quantities than what I was originally told. I will keep everyone informed. In my opinion after talking to him tonight it sounds promising.
 
Reminder, group buy ends at midnight tonight so if you need to change grain or vendor type do so soon. Feel free to add other non grain items. 164 sacks in 10 days. Pretty impressive in my opinion. I honestly think that ghoti's database made a world of a difference.

Bill, you rock. Thanks for you persistence on this.

Ghoti, you too rock. This web interface is a huge convenience.

Thanks guys.

Ok here was my Nelson Sauvin purchase. Please confirm, for my sanity, thanks.

Sorry for the late response. Correct. However, I am willing to give up a pound if someone else wants in

ylpaul2000 - if someone drops out of your nelson I can pick up some

Ghoti so far I have two buyers that haven't confirmed their initial hop split with me. One of them hasn't had any activity since the very beginning of the group buy. If I don't hear back from them soon I can sub you in, if still desired? Unless I fill both spots however I'm going to cancel the order.

EDIT:

I take that back, just one buyer Docgineer hasn't confirmed yet.
 
Wagz I know we had a split worked out...roasted barley and black malt? Confirmed.

am I involved in any other splits I need to confirm?

Just let me know. I will be in.

I just heard back from a PM I sent Docgineer. He said he is still in for my NS hop split, so I have all splits confirmed and accounted for.
 
We'll call that done, but respectfully let's see how ylpauls order processes since you queried him first. We can work our deal out up to day of delivery.

Looks like his is all filled up
 
I wanted to confirm my splits with :

Homebrewfrank for 1/3 sack of TF Rye Malt
Havoc531 for 1# of Hallertau
Havoc531 for 1# of Sazz
Starman for 1# of Magnum
 
Bmason,
When I log in now to the group buy site I no longer see a message that says "current group buys" or "current group buys you are in" like it has for the past two weeks. So am I in? Or has something changed? I thought I was in for 1 bag Thomas Fawcett MO, one bag light Munich best Malz, one bag Great Western 2-row, and one bag Pilsener.
D I need to do something, or am I in?

The group buy is closed then, so your order is probably in but you're no longer able to change it. At least that's what I think is happening as I can no longer see my order as well.
 
To clarify, I no longer see my particular order, which was there up until yesterday, and now I'm panicking wondering what happened?

Am I good to go?

Thanks!

Sounds good. Once we get final pricing I will PM you.
 
Ghoti will work on the database so that the buy shows but will not allow orders to be changed now that it has closed.

I see you listed on the working tally sheet with those items, 4 sacks total
 
Ok, the site has been fixed. You will now see the group buy under completed group buy if you participated in it. You list of items will be on the page, but you will be unable to modify your order.
 
Bill,

For the last bulk buy I picked up several people's purchases. Is there something you want from them or me stating that this will be the case again? I don't want you to have to do any more work, but I also don't want you blamed for any issues.
 
Randar, you're confirmed. If you can get a crap load of sacks again (not necessarily a full pallet) we can wait for you. Talk to your brew club and see if they are interested. I will close this tonight if I don't hear back from you.

Thanks, I just can't herd all those cats in such a short period of time. I was hoping to throw a couple sacks on the order, but I understand (and I've not been very prompt in responding)...

I might be interested in absorbing RC's purchases if they are still being included.

BTW, I already forgot my password to log-in. I figured I would get a confirmation email and when I didn't, it slipped my mind. :(

Shoot me a PM if there's some way to recover it.
