splitting hops direct order in Baltimore

[balto charlie]

Hey Boogie(and everyone else): What time do you plan to stop by? Some midday errands have come up. Brew day has been pushed back until mid afternoon. I hope to start brewing around 3:00. Sorry about this. Hops probably won't be delivered until mid-afternoon anyway. Charlie

fwiw, i got 13 lbs of hops from them... and the total weight was 13.3 lbs. not a lot of extra, maybe only for leaf?

really!! In the past mine have always been a few ounces heavy. Maybe the hop crisis changed their procedure.

Not certain but I can leave you the hops in a predetermined location. My back porch is a good place to leave the hops. We'll talk.

It's 3:50, I'm home but the hops are still not here. Charlie

Hops just arrived but a little too late for Boogie.
Gabe, no problem will hold for you until next week

I just sent PMs to Gabe, Clap and yarrme with cost and my home information. I will divide hops tonight or tomorrow morning early. If I am out just come to the back (through the driveway gate) and look on the big back porch. I will have the hops divided and in boxes or bags. I do not have enough vacuum bags to seal all of the larger amounts of hops so they will be in freezer bags. If you bring some food saver 8" bags I will seal them for you if I am at home. Hope to see you guys this weekend. Later Charlie

Hi Charlie,

Sorry the timing didn't quite work out on Monday. If you have any other takers for my hops feel free to offer them up. If not, I'd be happy to pay shipping to my place. Just let me know.

Hey Guys: The hops are ready and on the back porch. Boxes have names on them, clap yours is in a mylar bag. Put money/checks into the tissue box. I am stepping out for the next few hours but should be back in the later afternoon. My kids(older) might be around. Charlie

Hey Folks Seems everyone got their hops
Gabe: Sorry I was out and couldn't meet you.
Pat(yarrMe) nice to see you again.
Clap: You should have knocked on the door. I was in the basement weighing out grains for tomorrows brew day. You were so stealth.

Hope everyone is satisfied. Seems most pounds were a little heavy, ran 2-3 ozs over for most. Fuggles came it at a hair over a pound(probably because it was imported). I tried to spread out the overage evenly.

I'm brewing a double decoction Oktoberfest tomorrow. First I have to give my daughter a ride back to school then a long brew day. Lager starter is bubbling away. Perhaps we can do this next year. Charlie

 

[claphamsa]

Charlie,
Thanks for sorting everything out.

No problem, glad to do it. Perhaps we can have brewday there this summer. I tend not to brew during the summer due to the high temps but basement temps will be good for a Belgian I believe.
I didn't brew the double decoc Okt. yesterday because I got back too late from dropping my daughter off at school. Shame too as I have the yeast at full krausen and the grains are crushed. It take 6-8 hours to do a DD brew. Later, Charlie
