bellinmi88, we are closed on grain since we've reached the 2 pallet limit. In addition this entry is invalid since the split total is over 1. I will remove the entry for you.

it looks like you added onto a completed split (that is why the cell turned red)

You could jump onto GW-OC60 split for C60.


However it looks like the grain bags have closed up unless we bump to another pallet.


Additional Grain Interest

Please post your continued grain interest and we will see if we have enough to make it worthwhile to go for another pallet.

Right now we have 82 bags of grain. We would need ~115 bags, if my memory serves, to close a third pallet.


Please post your interest (bags only not the type) and I will track them under your name on post #2 until we have enough interest. Keep in mind that we would need to fill the order in the next couple weeks, so post grain interest ASAP.

------------------------------------------------------
So far I have total interest (6 bags); Need 27 more bags

BryanJ - 5 bags plus hops
bellinmi88 / copyright - 1 bag (the organic C60 split)

Bellinmi88, I have a solution for you. I have a sack of the organic crystal 60 in my order (GW-OC60). It's also from Great Western, and I wanted to try it as it is only about $.10/# more than the regular NON-organic Crystal 60 (GW-C60). That works out to about $2.50 more for 1/2 sack. I'm willing to split this with you. As I live near Albany (Averill Park area), we could meet locally to do the split. Sound good?

Got ya down for 2#.

1# goes too quickly for the 'C' hops, better get 2# of each.

ah blatherings of logic and reason.... As you can imagine, I nor anyone on this thread, has any interest in anything but encouraging others to stock up with as much folly as ourselves

I agree with copyright though, the "C" hops go fast for sure.

[CidahMastah]

haha, just having some fun. I mean heck I bought 2 lbs of summit, a hop I have never used before

 

[rustbucket]

well im still broke.. (i dont start a new job for another couple weeks)

 

[jeffb418]

Cent split 2 is now CLOSED

I have been using them a lot lately (because I bought a lb and they are nearly gone!). If you brew any belgian style, any kind from saisons, bl;ndes, goldens, dubbels, tripels, quads, ambers, triples, specialties seem to always use them (I have used them in goldens, tripels, quads, specialty and ESB's - planning to use them in a saison and dubbel soon too.). I would assume any British styles. I have also used them in several other beers but I need to consult my recipes to see what those brews are.

You can use them for bittering, aroma and dry hopping with really good results.

 

[rustbucket]

I see what you did there.. hahah! trying to sell me on those hops.. you got me "almost" still thinking about what i need and what i want to try as/when i go home.. (sadly im brewing 1000 miles away from where i am.. due to not having a house down here sucks!)

I was serious!

haha

No I really was. Ever since I started to go on my brew belgian's kick (along with a few british styles) I have been burning up styrians.

Don't worry though. If they don't get filled up I am already quite happy with my 13lbs of hops. Though I would love to get to 15 lbs....



Looks like we will be spending a couple hours splitting up all these hops!

Anyone want to open another colombus?

 

[rustbucket]

id do columbus

 

[jeffb418]

Anyone object replacing the HU-90NPT Newport with Columbus?

Sounds good

I don't need any Columbus as I have 2# already. But if the newport isn't going to happen, get rid of it and do the columbus, I will remove my split when I get pc access (doing this post on my iPhone).

After some PM's, Mike Bellini and I are splitting the Organic c60 (GW-OC60). It shows up in the Split section, and I removed my bag from the full sack area. So, the count is now corrected back to 82.

 

[jeffb418]

HOLY CRAP!

We have 9 splits of hops closed! That's 99LBS OF HOPS!

You guys are nuts


I think we are safe to close up to 15 hop splits (165lbs =~3 bags) if we stick with 2 pallets. If we go over this, we might have to pull a bag off the order to fit all of the hops, or push to a 3rd pallet (30 more bags). We'll play it by ear, but just giving you my thoughts.

While waiting for my son at track today, I was pondering ordering 11# of cascade or centennial "type" myself. Figured it would "only" be $72, and that way I would have a whole bag to my self. I managed to talk myself out of it, but just barely. (I have 4# across two splits as of now.)

Edit: Approximately $71.50 for cascade, $76.01 for centennial "type" (whatever that really means)

Centennial Type is not true centennial but a mix of hops to match closely the style and acid level of true Centennial.

Edit:

Here is more info on it: http://www.northernbrewer.com/connect/2012/05/centennial-type-hops-for-a-shortage/

So it looks like a mix of Columbus and Cascade. Also note in the catalog its only offered for this year due to the shortage of centennial.
