Can anyone in the Raleigh area pick up my malt for me? I won't be able to make the pickup unfortunately but I live in Brier Creek and am willing to pick it up anywhere in the Raleigh area next week. If anyone can do that you would be the man!
 
I'll be there Saturday morning. I have a little truck with a cap so I'll be picking up mine, Folster's, Walkers, and Howie I work at Falls and Spring Forest so I could grab yours too and get it to you anytime the following week.


That would be awesome. I'll plan on getting them Monday. Unless you start work at some ridiculously early time, maybe Monday morning.

My wife is out of town all of that week. I'm planning to do some crazy brewing!!

Hey man, can you possibly pick up my grain as well?
 
No problem for both Howie and Basisforaday. I get into work around 9Am its AM for those that don't work with me like Folster :-D Don't much have a desire to schlep over to Brier Creek but can meet somewhere more central or it'll be in my truck at the office all day long.

Literally the corner of Falls and Spring Forest. PM me if you want my cell.
 
I could deliver to Brier Creek. I've got to meet Dallas to get my grain, so I can grab yours from him, too. Then, on a weekday, I can bring the grain to work with me and meet you near Brier Creek. It's only about 10 minutes from my office.
 
Reelale, take what Dressel owe's you out of the extra I paid, he's my bud and I ended up sending you like $10 too much anyway. I won't be able to make the Saturday pickup but I'll see if Dressel can grab mine...

Had no clue there was a Walmart there. I'll be there at 9:00 am Saturday.
 
If anything 'comes open'....I'd be most interested!
I'm in F.V. Just let me know!!
Thanks!

I'm thinking we need to go ahead and start another round. Seems like there's interest. If no one else wants to run it, I can. I don't have a loading dock to drop them off at though.
 
So anyway I swing it, it looks like I wont be able to make it there at 9 am on Saturday. Is there anyone willing to pick up my sack of Maris Otter for me please?? I live in SW Raleigh by Lake Johnson and have no troubles driving anywhere to pick it up at a later time. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could help me out.
 
Hey there....

I had said earlier that I wouldn't be able to make it to the pick-up, but it looks like I actually MIGHT be able to.

My kids have soccer on Saturday mornings, but my daughter has a bye this week and I think my son's game isn't until 10:30am.

I'll check that for sure when I get home, but if this is true, I'd be able to come and get my grain and probably pick-up and hold a few other people's stuff.
 
WOOT! Just got the packing slip via email. She also sent all of the malt analysis sheets. If anyone wants copies, pm me and I'll get them to you. See you Saturday.
 
:(Can't attach files to PM's. I have all of the malt analysis sheets, except for TF-MOPA. They are scanned as pdf files, and even when zipped, are too large to post here. If you want a copy, PM your email and I'll send it that way.

I should be able to meet you Monday morning as you get to the office. That's not too far from me.

THANKS!!
 
Just to double check. At the moment I'm picking up Howie's grain and possibly Walker's and Basisforaday's.

Kirbster, I live on the opposite side of the county from you so maybe we could leave your sack at Walker's? Yeah I'm volunteering him :)

Anyone else need a temporary storage place?

No problem. I can store some stuff. Lake Johnson is about 15 minutes from my house, and I pass REALLY close by it on my way to work (I come up 64 and then get onto I-40 west on my way to Durham.)

I can *probably* be there, but it's not guaranteed. Keep your cell handy Saturday morning, Dallas.

If I can make it there, I could bring all the other stuff I have for you (your camera and the stuff we ordered from AHS last week, which should be arriving today.)

If I can't make it to the malt drop location, I guess I'll have to come over to your house on Sunday and drink.... err... I mean, "exchange goods".
 
anxiously awaiting the $15.00 "call-ahead" phone call from the trucking agency informing when I can expect them.....
 
Walker, I sent you a pm. Thanks IdahoDal for the mandatory volunteer. I would be willing to meet anywhere to pick it up. I do not mind driving any distance. But now its back to brewing.
 
Man... brewing-related is consuming my time this week. Ordered and received a pound of hops, ordered and should be receiving $150 worth of stuff from AHS, talking with a welder about some stuff I need done, finished all electrical work on the soon-to-be-launched HERMS, taking delivery of all this grain.... I'm thinking about brewing Sunday night, too.

I swear, I actually do have a job.... I just can't remember where I left it right now.
 
Just to double check.

You are the man! Thanks again to Dallas!


I'm getting three sacks of grain, and I just got 6lbs of pellet hops from HopsDirect.

There's nothing in my kegerator, and the wife & kids are out of town all of next week. I anticipate LOTS of brewing and LOTS of drinking!!

Damn... I hope you have a lot of buckets/carboys!
 
I got the grain. As I was loading it on the trailer, I had 2 bags that did not match the loading slip. Coincidentally, I was two bags shy of CM-Pale. I called CM and explained what happened. They could not locate the lot number that was on the bags. The bags are marked as 2-row, but with a different lot number than the other 17 bags of CM-row. There is a very high probability that this is the missing CM-pale, just mislabled bags. They are just marked with a black marking pen. Nontheless, Jeanette, at CM is willing to fedex out replacements on Monday if requested. That is between you and her. Or she offered to discount those bags. How much, she didn't say. If you want to do that, I'll call her Monday, ask for the refund, and when it posts to my cc, I'll refund to you via paypal. Or you can just say **** it, and I'll give you your money back tomorrow. In my opinion there is very little difference in pale malt and 2-row, but that is what you ordered, so that is what you expected. I'm sorry for this mix-up, but it was completely out of my hands. You can let me know what to do tomorrow. Idaho, I'm weighing Barc's and my vienna out of the bag, so I'll just bring you what's left in the bag if that's ok.
 
Scott and I were the only ones with the CM-Pale. I just talked to him and we're fine with keeping the mis-marked bags. Be they 2-row or Pale it doesn't really matter. The only reason we got them was to see if we could tell a difference (the Pale cost all of 55 cents more per bag). So no worries. ReelAle, feel free to pull 1/4 of that bag of 15L for yourself if you want it (tonight/tomorrow doesn't matter).

If that's ok with you, that's ok with me. Again, sorry for the mix-up.

Sweet. I'll bring a scale and a bucket tomorrow. Thanks man.
 
Great! Just got in from business and this is welcome news!
 
Somebody better bring the spreadsheet with them. With all the picking up of other people's stuff, this might get confusing

All I know is that the sack of Gambrinus is mine. :D

Dallas: it looks like I WILL be able to make it there. SWMBO said, "Go, but be back by 10am." I live only 15 minutes away from the drop zone, so I should be good.
 
Walker, want me to pick you up? I'll have my laptop with the spreadsheet and all of this post on it in different tabs in order to try and keep things straight.
