Northern Colorado-CMC group buy round 2

[fosaisu]

The form is live

Please sign up as soon as you can. From what I have seen this round, it looks like we might be under the 40 bag cutoff, so get your friends in on this too.

I will keep this thread updated.

Just a suggestion, but consider editing the first post in the thread to include the signup sheet, may make it easier for new folks wandering into the thread to sign up.

I'm also fine paying the non-pallet price for my 2 bags, though I wouldn't mind waiting a few more weeks to see if we can get up to 40+ bags. Will send Paypal once you give the word.

 

[TheArtOfTheBrewery]

I'd be fine with regular price as well.

 

[DennisH]

I'd be fine with regular pricing too. Not much of a difference for me.

 

[bondra76]

Good with regular pricing. Good with waiting for more people too.

I just added my order for 4 bags. I'm okay with regular pricing, but I'm fine with waiting a few weeks if that's what it takes to fill up a pallet.

Also, does the "Wheat" entry on the form imply "malted white wheat"? There are several wheat types available from CMC, and I want to be sure I'm ordering the right one.

 

[LLBeanJ]

I assumed that the wheat entry was malted white, but yeah, probably not a bad idea to confirm it.

As did I, but I just wanted to confirm. I guess if I got a bag of unmalted wheat, it'd force me to kick my lambic-style brewing into really high gear :rockin:

I marked you guys down for malted white. Thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks to a few other responses, we are at 38 bags! Almost there!

 

[QuaffableQuips]

I just put in for one bag each of pale, rye, and red wheat. That should put us over 40, right?
Sorry to have fallen silent there for a bit. Work inopportunely interrupted my homebrew obsession.

 

[ColoHox]

Okay, we should be at the 40 bag mark, thanks Quaf and everyone else for making this happen.

On a similar note, as soon as I get some time away from work (maybe tonight, probably tomorrow), I will go through the form and check on payment status for everyone.

If you know that you have not paid yet, please send payment (at pallet pricing) to my paypal ([email protected]). I won't submit this order to CMC until I get prepayment from everyone...it's just safer that way.

I will let everyone know when the order has been submitted and will provide an estimated shipping date.

We will coordinate more details shortly. Thanks fellow Coloradoans!

 

[ColoHox]

Waiting on payment from a few people...you know who you are!

As soon as those roll in, I will submit the order.

LAST CALL FOR ORDERS!

 

[ColoHox]

Sorry guys, I forgot about freight.

Email from Tim Cody last night:
"As a value-added ag wholesale license holder, we are not required to collect sales tax.

With 40 bags, the cost will be the pallet pricing listed on the website.

The only other cost will be the LTL freight to FoCo- $170

Thanks again for your continued support of local malt!!!"

This adds $4.25 to each bag. Please calculate what you owe based on how many bags you are getting. I will cover this cost up front, but please throw another paypal payment at me or bring some cash or beer when you pick up your grains. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Waiting on one last prepayment.

 

[bondra76]

Sent my freight...

When we figure out the logistics of where these bags are going to end up lemme know. If someone could get the bags for Castle Rock/Parker/CoSprings to just even Denver/Thornton, I could bring them down to Castle Pines and hold for pickup. I have plenty of space available here.

I can get the grain to the Denver metro area for any one who would like. I am near 104th and Tower near DIA. If you would like to take it from there further south I am sure that would help people in tech center/castle rock/ or the springs. As long as people let me know ahead of time I have no problem transporting the grain for distribution in the Denver area.

 

[bondra76]

Sounds great. I'm at Happy Canyon Rd and I25 for anyone interested in south Denver pickup

[loctones]

I'm in the Frederick/Erie area. I can pick up someone else's order (or 4 or 6 bags) in the area, if it helps.

 

[Brettomomyces]

Too late to submit an order?

 

[ColoHox]

Too late to submit an order?

No. Sign up on the google form in the OP and send payment to the paypal address. Still waiting on payment from one other person.

 

[Brettomomyces]

Final price for base malts is $48.75?

 

[ColoHox]

Final price for base malts is $48.75?

Yes. $44.50/ 50lb sack plus $4.25 freight. The prices are on the google form. You can order anything you want on the price list, just add $4.25 freight for each bag. How much are you interested in?

 

[Brettomomyces]

4 bags, 2 pale and 2 pils. Already submitted

 

[Brettomomyces]

And payment sent

 

[ColoHox]

And payment sent

Got it, thanks.

Different storage ideas for those who might be a 1st time bulk buyer like myself:

Hey random question for you guys

Does anyone use the Vittles Vaults for their grain? They look like this:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002H3S5U/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

My main question is - for one 50 lb bag of grain, will it fit into a 40 lb or 60 lb Vittles Vault?

Thanks

It will fit into a 50lb vault (if you can find one), but not a 40lb.

Those were a little pricey for me, because I had a lot of grain to store. I ordered a dozen food grade 5 gal buckets with sealable lids for $60.

Another option is to use a good, old-fashioned metal trash can. I can fit two full sacks in a 31-gallon can (I keep my base malts in the bags they came in), and the metal keeps out pests. Not the prettiest solution, but it's cheap and effective.

 

[ColoHox]

Hey all,

Unfortunately someone had to pull out of the order. We are down to 38/40 bags.

If anyone was considering another bag (or 2) or if anyone else still wants in, there is room.
