@fender230 I completed the RedX split that you had posted.
Please keep in mind there's a donation section towards the bottom of the spreadsheet. it's always nice to kick a little back for the people that organize.

Since this is my first group buy for grain I started looking at grain Mills. Any suggestions? Thinking about the Barley crusher with the 15 lb hopper

Stay far away from the barley crusher. I have one and it is a pain in the ass. After about 6 months it stopped pulling in grain half way through the crush. I would look at the crankenstien or monster mill.

+1 for MM. I love mine. Lots of people have issues with the BC and their customer service is apparently severely lacking.

People generally flame the cereal killer, but I've been happy with mine, and the price can't be beat. There were concerns about manufacture with early versions, but the current one does a great job.

First generation had some issues with bushings and roller alignment, possibly others. But yes, looks just like your barley crusher, just made in China, yours for $99 generally, with free shipping.

I'm in - just 3 bags for me (MO, 2-row, pilsner).
This is my first go round one of these. If anyone else is thinking about chemicals, I'd order some PBW, but I don't want to trigger the hazmat fee all by myself just for 8 lb of PBW.

The best thing to do if you want PBW is post a 50# pail and take a portion. Most of the time it will fill and a 12# costs about the same as 8#.

Ok, I've gone in for quarter of a 50# of PBW. Any idea what size of container I'd need for that? I guess a gallon pail would do it?
OP
OP
Yeah that is plenty big enough to hold it

EBS:
I'd be interested in a 1/4 of Star San, but I believe you posted SaniClean, not Star San. If you wanted a 1/4 of Star San I would pick up a 1/4....maybe 1/2.
Also, I think the pricing on the sheet of SaniClean (4 x 1 Gal) is incorrect. Should be $111 plus shipping?
OP
OP
All the prices will be corrected by the time the buy is complete. So don't sweat it until then

Sorry I meant Star San. I will correct it.
CrazyIrishman did you want SaniClean? or Star San?
OP
OP
I use the SaniClean in my keg washer because it doesn't foam. Really the same as StarSan just non foaming and cheaper.

Ok. I didn't know the difference. I don't mind which one we get as long as we get to complete a split.

I am in for a gallon of the sanitizer. I like the idea of the bottles. I wish we could do something similar with growlers.

You could do the same with growlers but the world still cost about 4 each

My work schedule prevents me from being able to get to the rally point. If someone from the Hartford area is already in on this deal, I'd appreciate help in bringing this back to Hartford area.

I've taken the other half of it. I've been meaning to play with some different base malts.
Twist my arm... I'll go on the sheet when I get home. The office blocks Google drive, Dropbox, etc.

I'll drop my half bag of the share down to 1/4 of a bag until/unless someone wants to start a second bag of TF Pearl to split.
OP
OP
Should just post a second bag and let it fill. Most times it will fill.

I was wavering between a quarter and a half bag anyway, so it's not a big deal. If we need someone to go in for a quarter bag to fill up a split, I'm interested, but I should probably err on the side of buying a bit less from now.
