Official 2010 "Pay it Forward" Thread

[samc]

I'm incredibly new to brewing, but I do have an extra capper available to whoever can make use of it! First one to reply to the thread gets it! It looks just like this one on MoreBeer: http://morebeer.com/view_product/15672/102304/Bottle_Capper_-_Brev

I'd be thrilled to get this! Make it easier to give some homebrew to others.

Darnit,
Missed out on another bottle capper.

I need to quit working so much, And start brewing more

 

[oteixeira]

oteixeira, if no one wants that handle, my wife would absolutely LOVE it. However, I already got my "one item per person" from this thread, so I'll offer to buy it from you if it goes unclaimed.

PM me your info, no one else posted in the thread to claim it, so it's yours if you still want it.

Orlando

I am making a mashtun for a friend of mine that could use one of your ball valves if no one else wants the second one.

If we do this in the new year, I will have some stuff. I might have a few more items.

wouldnt it be nice to keep it going year-round?? I know i will have some stuff VERY soon, like my mash tun. getting rid of my 5gal cooler to get a 10gal.

 

[oteixeira]

I think it could work, there would have to be some tweaking, or the only people that could receive would be new accounts. Maybe one item every 3 months per account, or something like if you receive you are next to have to offer.

or something like if you receive you are next to have to offer.

I understand the concept of that idea, but I think the point is to help ones who are new or not as well off financially, and those ones might not have an excess of equipment to offer up.

Well, while it would work for those that are new, people who are not well off financially will not benefit. If they received one item they would be done. I am just looking at ways to extend the pay if forward and have it work for everyone on the board. I suppose this is why it isn't a year round thing, their are too many rules to consider.

Orlando

 

[TANSTAAFB]

We do a pretty good job of self regulating around here...if anyone becomes a freebie whore we come down on 'em, mercilessly ridicule them, and ban them from receiving anything else until adequate penance is paid.

That could be a refusal by the poster offering the item, require that the abuser post something decent for free (and follows through w/ shipping for free), ban them for a set amount of time.

I think an exchange thing would be cool too, kinda a quid pro quo. We could make a rule that noobs get dibs if multiple people request an item or something.

Bottom line, if we set up the rules ahead of time and keep it reasonable, it would work. Input? Mods? Yoop?

If you decide to get rid of it now, I would like to claim it. Wanting to start moving to AG brewing but don't have alot of the stuff needed.

 

[SkiSoloII]

I've got a pound of 2008 Perle leaf hops from Puterbaugh (Hops Direct). Been in the freezer since purchased.

Dave

 

[cincybrewer]

I'll take those off your hands SkiSolo, assuming I can use them in my extract brews...I've never used whole leaf hops before.

PM me your info. Not a problem in extract or AG, use them the same way as pellets. I suggest a bag to prevent any clogging.

Dave

 

[cincybrewer]

PM sent. Thanks a bunch! Very cool. Unfortunately as a new brewer I don't have much to offer but maybe this time next year I will have a good supply of items that I can share.

 

[rosier9]

fitztheelephant do you still have the Oetiker clamps up for grabs?

This thread is going to be closed on Saturday, at noon, so make sure you offer up anything you still have!

Thanks to everybody who's participated- hopefully some people have benefit from our "leftovers"!

 

[wyzazz]

I've got 2 Stainless 5/16" "T's" for gas line I can offer up. I got these with a bulk buy of commercial kegerator stuff and won't use them since I have a manifold already. Anyone that wants them respond in the thread and then shoot me a PM with your address! Cheers!

I hope there is going to be a Pay it Forward thread for 2011 because I have been working on getting my new toys working so I can donate the old.
