I also anal wrap everything.
For some reason I read it like that at first. Wasn't sure what anal wrap was. :p

And I still haven't had all my beers survive. Of course I still think UPS hire gorillas to handle the packages...

I have actually had good success so far. Nothing I have sent out, beer or glassware, has broken. I try to go a little overboard on the bubble wrap and packing materials. Maybe FedEx doesn't hire the same kind of gorillas that UPS does. ;)

Careful ... you're showing how your mind works ;)

I do think FedEx respects the package better - and they're cheaper so win-win!

My mind? You're the one who typed something that I misread as being dirty! ;)

Yeah, they've always been cheaper every time I compared prices so I just stick with FedEx.

Was the yeast still cool when you got it? That's the first time I've shipped it like that.

FWIW I was listening to brew strong earlier. I've always thrown yeast straight in the fridge when it shows up warm, but you want to avoid dramatic temperature shifts as it causes the yeast to throw off temperature shock proteins or some such.
 
Another awesome trade with my wonderful wife in the background. Thanks to TheMan once again

Nice haul!
I love that Laughing Panda. I wasn't sure what to expect but ended up really enjoying it.

I packed it in 2 different lunch coolers, with 2 separate ice packs, with no dead air space, I'm hoping that was enough to keep it cool

Well **** it was in the fridge for 4 hours and then I pitched it into the starter tonight. But yes it had kept pretty cool.
 
Is there an easy way to post pics on the mobile app? I just uploaded a picture to my photo page but can't figure out how to get the URL from the app...

You don't need a URL if you've taken the picture on your mobile device. Simply hit the "+" sign near the Send button to add your image.
 
Sweet! That was easy! I just got these from a trade with someone on a different forum. Looking forward to having some Lunch for dinner tonight!

Yep. I figured it was to trick those mofos. I applaud you.
