May 2013 New England Grain Buy

[crazyirishman34]

Yeah but you need to pm me at the end of the buy. A pound or 2 doesn't throw off the the pallet.

 

[derfh]

Just added two sacks. Do we send you a check after the final order is placed? Also, any thoughts on a delivery date.

Thanks for setting this up.

 

[crazyirishman34]

Deliver date is kind of a fast moving target. It takes about 3 weeks after the buy is full to delivery day

Anybody from CT involved in this that wouldn't mind grabbing a sack of pilsner malt for me?

I cringe that I might be asking a really silly noob question for the bulk order....

How do I use the spreadsheet for the order? I want to order 4- 5 bags of the Maris Otter and I go cross eyed trying to figure out the spreadsheet.

I will totally understand the possible roasting of the noob here, I deserve it.

So you enter you HBT handle in the top row and it. will populate the rest of the sheet. Scroll down and find the tf mopa and in the column under you name put how many bags you want

 

[VonX]

Thanks, CrazyIrishman34! Worked perfectly, thanks again!

 

[crazyirishman34]

Don't forget to give a couple buck to Redman he does us a great service receiving the grain

 

[crazyirishman34]

If anyone needs some culture vials I have something like 1500 of them.

When you get a second could you adjust the pricing for the 8lb PBW? The spreadsheet is currently tacking on $130 for it. Thanks!

 

[crazyirishman34]

That is for 50#. If you want less then that put a fraction in the box. A quarter of the pail is 12.5#.

Sweet, someone filled my Vienna split!!!

There's an 8lb container according the the sales form: SS-PBW8LB - $29.

I added the code but put it in the 50lb spot because I wasn't sure what else to do. Is it ok to order the 8lb?

 

[crazyirishman34]

I honestly don't want to order a 8lbs tub makes us look like a homebrewer account so we could loose the ablity to order from NCM. This is one of the few buys that are still getting the true wholesale prices. Also it messes up the bag count a 50lbs pail counts as a bag. Most times if one person goes in for a pail of PBW it will fill.

Makes complete sense - wasn't thinking like that! I'll see if anyone wants to split.

 

[crazyirishman34]

I just want to be able to keep this up till I get my Brewer's Notice from the TTB then we have more options of were to buy grain. I did look in to Cargill and they are a good bit more expensive. Also they charge more to ship the grain.

 

[satph]

Order added. We're still 21 sacks short of the 2nd pallet.

 

[crazyirishman34]

That isn't too bad I thought that this would have taken longer to fill. We did just do a buy in April.

 

[grathan]

Just breezing through, didn't notice a Pickup location?

[brewkinger]

I live way up in northern Vermont (Newport) and would be interested in getting in on this deal as I just purchased a mill and am anxious to start buying bulk.
Is anyone remotely closer to me in on this deal?

I would pay for some gas or even go for a long drive to help sort, etc...

PM me if interested

 

[golfduke]

I'm in the concord nh area if that helps you at all...

 

[brewkinger]

that is a strong possibility.
Wife can shop and I can get beer stuff.
i will PM for more details.

 

[EatBeerSleep]

Looking to split saniclean and pbw 4 ways if possible. any takers?

 

[philw86]

Added in another 4 sacks, and closed the Marris Otter split.

 

[crazyirishman34]

Getting closer to 2 pallets.

 

[satph]

Anyone from Westchester County NY or Fairfield CT want in on this buy? I'm getting 6 sacks, and have room to bring few more for a share of the gas money. It's about 350 miles round trip. At 20 mpg and $4/gallon, it will cost about $70 in gas. So if we bring one extra back, the gas money would be $10 per sack. If we brought back 10 total sacks, the gas would run $7/sack. And you can pick up your grain from me.

I'll drive further for some Lawsons and Hill Farmstead... Just sayin'

 

[brewkinger]

Also a strong possibility, we are planning a maiden excursion to Hill soon. I am told that it is a little off the beaten path. If I find it and not get lost, a grain for growler barter would be great deal.
