We are starting another group buy in Chicago. This will be the 9th one that I have run. Everyone is invited to participate, however, you must live in the Chicago area including neighboring IN, MI, WI. If you haven't registered before, you can do so below at the ordering database (you will be redirected to the database host server).

chicagohomebrewers.org/grain.

The link is within the database group buy information.

EDIT: This buy will close at 12:01 AM September 23, 2013.

EDIT#2: This buy will close at 12:01 AM September 23, 2013.

EDIT#3: This will be the last group buy until March 2014.
 
How much do you guys pay for a 50lb of Briess 2-row? Just seeing if it's worth driving over from MI to do this.

How many pounds are you looking at possibly buying? If you're looking at only one 50 lb bag then I'll say it's probably not worth it. If you're looking at bulk, like 500 lbs then it's probably worth it.

Where in Michigan? We're over there quite a bit, so delivery, or at least a 120 mile reduction in driving, might be possible.

I'm in Grand Rapids area, so about 3 hrs. Just curious how much you guys pay. I know here I can get a 50lb bag of 2 row for $40. Plus last time they had a store wide sale 15% off, so I got my bag for $34.

The opening page looked different than last time so I signed up like I was new even though I've participated in previous buys. Probably didn't need to do that?

I'm in my account so please ignore my new member request.

Yep, you didn't. Try to sign in with your old password, if that doesn't work, use the forgot password.
 
subscribed. Hopefully this time around I can spend a few more minutes at the pickup and meet some people!

And for anyone who is getting in for the first time (like me last time), take the advice of buying more than you think.
 
I had to to sign up again as my login didn't work. I'll probably only get one sack of 2row and something else.

When will this close? My brewing time has suffered with vacation and moving and I don't know if I'll have anything to bring. Yesterday was my first brew since July 1.
