South Central Pa Bulk Grain buy

I'm Down for:

2 x 55lb Sacks of Marris Otter
1 x 55lb Sack of Canadian Pale Ale
1 x 55lb Sack of Ger Pils

20lb of Wheat
10lb Med Crystal
10lb Dark Crystal

Time is getting near for another bulk grain buy for S. Central Pa brewers. I'll check this years pricing but want to know how many people are interested? I plan on mid Feb to early March for delivery. Last years bulk buy went very well as we all shared in a good price on our grains. Check your inventories and let me know what you'll be needing.

Pallet is full! Can not take anymore orders. Only thing left is 20 lbs of Dark Crystal and 10 lbs of Ex Dark Crystal to make a full sack. Who needs some Dark or Extra Dark?

 

[flyangler18]

I'll take the Dark Crystal- all 20 lbs. :rockin:

Doh...saw this too late. =(

Maybe next time, unless there would be enough interest for at least another 20- 55 lb bags? I would need that much more of an order by next week.

I have four more bags odrered, only need at least 16 more.

 

[hokster]

Heh, I don't know if I could order quite that much, but I could order at least 2-3 bags or so if there's enough interest for the new pallet.

Looks like an issue arose with the MD grain buy; 2-row was put in as a replacement for Pilsner. WTF?

I'm in need of a sack of Pilsner (and Firebrewer might as well.)

Actually the Canadian Malt is listed in the catalog as a 2 row pilsen malt verses a 6 row. The other pilsen malt would be the German which cost more. I'm actually getting one of each becuase I want to see how it compares to the German. My guess is it probably is like the Breiss 2 row.

Here's the Specs on both grains.

Moisture Protein Extract CG

% Max Color L Total Max Dry Min
Canadian Malting
Superior 2-row pilsen 4.1% 1.4-1.9 11.0 80.0
Premium 2-row pilsen 4.1% 1.5-2.1 12.5 80.0

Ger Best Pilsen 4.0% 1.0-2.0 11.0 81.5

I have always preferred a european continental pils malt when brewing my Helles and other german lagers. I'm going to brew two identical batches with only changing the pils malt to see how the beers compare.

Sorry to say their isn't enough interest in getting a second pallet.

I'll need checks sent this week to place the order early next week.

42 Sacks of grain on one pallet, what a beautiful sight! That would make 1,410 gals of 1.052 O.G. beer, damn it isn't all mine. See some of you on Sat.

You can count me in for sure. It was a great deal last year!

Brian,

Sorry you missed this grain buy. As I mentioned before you are first in line for the next one probably around Sept. Any luck job hunting?

Mike, Thanks for putting this together again. I really appreciate your time and effort.
Don't forget, brew day for the first barrel project is March 7, as early as you can make it.

Was nice to meet you Charlie. Maybe next time we get together we can compare those two Helles I made yesterday? See how the German Pils compares to the Can Pils. The Helles was fermenting away in the chest freezer by 10:00 last night, that was the one I finished around 1:30. The other one was starting to ferment this morning in the basement.

My Vienna was bubbling away in the "cold coal room" in the basement. I want to do 2 r 3 more lagers before this weather turns warm. Would like to try those Pls in a few months.

Ahh, no biggie. Shoulda had my stuff together sooner. Yup, finally got a job!! The 7 months off wasn't too bad now that I can look back on it. I'm off to CT Sunday night for a week of training. I hope there are some good beer bars there. Count me in on the next purchase for sure. I think me and a buddy will prob get 5 or 6 sacks.

Glad to hear you landed a job, it gets a little nerve racking being off too long. Last time I got laid off I was only off about 3 months. After a month and a half I was ready to go back to work.

BTW this years regional National's for the AHA comp is in Philly at Yard's brewing company. They might need some stewards to help out, you might want to consider helping. It's the weekend of April 17 to 19. I'll probably head down Fri by taking the Train from Lancaster to Philly. I'm going to stay overnight Fri and head back Sat evening. Would be a good way to see how the competitions are run.

Look for another one around Sept. I'll try and meet you at Olde New York. My next trip up there will probably be in April sometime. Keep me posted on this years mushroom crop, I'll make a trip up if you know where to pick some good shrooms and don't mind me going along "to your secrect hunting grounds".
