[PseudoChef]

It is a blend. here's the release from Hopunion. From Morebeer:



also see this thread at probrewer.com

Thanks. I suppose my reading comprehension is over par today.

 

[dbrewski]

I only posted about it because on some other thread a guy claimed to know the hops and percentage breakdown used for the blend, but could not provide backup, so I was looking for it anyway.

Cheers.

OK. Our account with the vendor is set up. Just need to get the details on shipping to my place.

Another question for the group: What should be the cut off date?

 

[metic]

Any word on availability of the more popular varieties Bill? Farmhouse Brewing Supply are going to be putting up some Amarillo today, and it will probably sell out quick, but I'd obviously much rather get it here at these prices if I can!

I say cut it off by Sunday so you can order Monday morning. I would love to have these soon so I can brew sooner.

 

[bmason1623]

I still need to get shipping costs and include them in the total cost.

 

[wagz]

I guess I better build the stand for my other 15 gal inductor conical, so I can brew more often....Going to have a lot of hops to play with.....

Well..times a wasting.. and then as the hobby goes you need more kegs.

 

[wagz]

I have 12 kegs, so I am good there... And I have all the parts to build the stand, just need to spend the 2 hours cutting the wood and screwing it all together.

 

[dbrewski]

Any interest in getting another split of Citra going, or is everyone all set?

 

[dbrewski]

Never mind, I hadn't refreshed the page. There are two splits there now.

Sooner rather than later? In case stuff runs out of stock?

Soon please, or they ones I want will be gone!

 

[Randar]

Glad to see a few of my favorites seemingly available. I signed up. Will see if any in our club want to get in on this (although I will have them come to this thread instead of trying to coordinate this one)...

There goes a couple of my choices. I was thinking about Zythos so I guess I will get some after all.

 

[kalifornsky]

Should we take off the hops that are not available? Or will that happen by magic?

 

[wagz]

So unless I can't read, is citra available?

 

[RacingRam]

Bummer! Guess I had to expect that after hopsdirect Citra etc. sold out in 20 min.

 

[ghoti]

I can update the database tonight, I will leave the variety that need 44 pounds

 

[bmason1623]

No citra either. It's all contracted out.

 

[dbrewski]

so are you going to dump the entries and start over with new splits?

 

[ghoti]

I will just dump those that are not available

 

[kalifornsky]

Damn, I'm 0 for 2

 

[TheBreweryUnderground]

How close are we on the Simcoe? It would be nice, but not really necessary to see what hops have already been filled.

It wasn't clear in the original post, but it appears Simcoe is 44# only.

 

[bmason1623]

did I mention that hop contracts are available to us? That is another option for us; however, that will need to be a separate thread or offline. Who ever is interested in contracts PM me and I'll start putting together a spreadsheet.

 

[dbrewski]

I bet we could make a good run at it. At these prices it would be a shame not to. Guess we'll see.
