Are we going to do starters? I am not the best at this since I have only made 2 starters so far but I have a stir plate, oxygen and a 2000ml flask so if you tell me what kind of yeast by tuesday I can get 1 1800ml starter going on wednesday(LHBS is closed Wednesday's). I have pale DME but if the recipe would be better suited for something else I can accommodate just need to know what.
Also if someone could shoot me a PM or email [email protected] with directions or an address that would be great.
Thanks

Yeast:
Pacman for Dead Guy Clone (alternatively: Wyeast 1056)
Irish ale (Wyeast 1084) (or alternatively: Wyeast 1056).
I'm thinking of getting 1056 and building a two gallon starter and splitting it into the two batches.

Why not just use S05 instead of 1056? No starter needed.
usually EXL makes starters.... but ive never bothered myself.... I say we plan on using whatever (IE bring your own)
also... PM me for adress and phone

last brew day...it took me a few days to get to the homebrew store to pick up yeast & mine started fermenting on it own. BIG surprise when i tried to pop open the corny i was using to transport my wort. I think that a corny is a great transport container cause of spillage

Ok, with the current list, how much grain is needed? I can measure out what I and figure out if we need to go to the HB store to get more and some of the specialty grains.
What about hops for extra batches? I know Stephin and I got enough for 1 10g batch...

I'll let everyone know on Thursday how much it cost. I have never used paypal to accept money before, so I think we should stick to ca$h.

I'll let you know what I have - I may have some/most/all of the base grains.
If you don't hear back from me by thursday, then go ahead and get what you need.

What is everyone bringing? I can bring a burner and 7.5 gal pot and propane if needed.
Also.... I am probably stopping at state line liquors so if anyone wants me to pick up something for them let me know. It is basiclly the beer mecca around here.

I'll bring a keggle, propane tank, burner, 10 gallon converted cooler mash. Additional 10 gallon pot for whatever and as many little items as I have. Idophor, stirring spoon, funnels, etc.
If we have an extra propane tank I would rather leave mine at home but unless I hear otherwise I will bring it.
If there's anything else I can fit in my car let me know.

Starter FTW. When I got home mine was at 64 degrees and I pitched a 1.8L starter and pumped it full of oxygen through a tube. This morning at 8am when I checked it was going strong.
