I think we may have enough to skirt around the country, but would still like to see more from the south west and middle states. Not sure of the shipping time from MN to WA, probably two to three days?

Also, we are getting a bunch of repeat states. I want to see everybody get in on this box, but unless we start shipping interstate or back and forth in certain areas, please be patient. With the repeat states, I think if we found other bordering states with some participants we can bounce it around. IE NY to CT to PA to NY to wherever. WA to CA to AZ back to CA to somewhere, etc. Or we can just keep passing it around. The recipient is entirely up to the sender.

Throw me on the list!!
 
Though me on the list!!

Aye! Just added you to todays list. I'll try to keep it updated everyday. I'll use Monday as a way to update from the weekend since I'm inactive. If you see this and want to hop on in sometime during the weekends, shoot me a PM and I'll add you to it come Monday morning.
 
Unpacking this one was extra exciting. Really looking forward to getting down with the randall. Thanks Jason, great idea and a great box. That cheese steak was insane. Can't wait to pick out some cool stuff to send out.

Damn!
Now I am going to have to bug my folks to bring out some scrapple and Tasycakes when they come out next weekend. Where was the cheesesteak from? It was definitely not from Pudge's--shipping one of those behemoths would be expensive (but worth it).
Great concept and please consider getting the box through the C-bus. I have some great buckeyes (brews and otherwise) to get out to the next spot.

Bought and shipped from Steve's in downtown CC. I work not that far from there so it was convenient.

I'll get you added to the list, Columbus, right?
 
Crap, forgot to include the standard 90 days 100 posts do-hickey at the start of the thread! I'll make you the exception to this, but try to get your post count up in the next few weeks by participating on the boards.

Just a heads up, since I am the only one from the KS/MO/NE/OK area, I dont mind taking one for the team and receiving this more than once to pass along to others on either side of me. :D

That rocks! I don't see a a lot of traders from those specific areas, so that would be a big help.

I'll update that.
 
So made a little mock up and it was going great until everyone in Cali lives within like 30 miles of one another, lol

Edit: Also realized I resized it down a little too much, not that it matters since it's ship to who you want...

lol still missing large swaths of area between Cali and TX and in both the northwest and south east. We have some time, I'm sure this will fill in nicely before then.
 
I might change jobs in a few weeks, but until then it's pretty affordable for me to overnight ship anywhere in the continental US.

The box I shipped was about 14 lbs. Thaymt was four brews, Randall, ingredients, ice pack and food. Overnight it would probably be around 30ish I think

Retail overnight on that would be a lot more than $30. That might get you an envelope cross country...at least with the guys in brown.
 
For those not on untapped I did surly smoke with home made candied bacon. Probably the most savory liquid this side of actual BBQ sauce
 
I'm gonna have to start following you guys to see the Randall reviews.

Ahh kind of a waste. Wish i had some sour cherries on hand. Bings were a waste. Not horrible but not much cherry flavor.
 
for those of you that want to start experimenting but don't have a Randall, a french press works just as well! in some ways it may even be a bit better in that they are typically have a bit larger capacity. i've got one that I specifically use for beer in addition to our regular coffee preff. not that I think they would transfer flavors too much since the majority of it is glass.

I've used the French press method and it does work just as well. The only difference I noticed was the carb level after use. The Randall is airtight once you seal it back up. As an alternate method for a Randall, a French Press is otherwise the best bet.
 
Just found this thread. Count me in for the stop before California. This makes better sense of what you were drinking on untappd last week Mikeysab.

Haha....i never thought about how little sense it made to people who don't know about this thread.
