Well, I think that we appreciate you letting Bill know asap that you couldn't cover the cost. Others will just disappear. So thanks for looking out for the group when you figured it out.

Yes

Paid today, paypal did not say anything about any fees so I am going to assume there were none, are you going to put a pickup time here when it will be available?

Coming from NW suburbs if someone wants to ride share or just for me to pick up.???

Hey Bill, I'm not showing as paid. Sent by Chase last night. Also, if tommygunner's order has leftover candi syrup still I can take it.

Paid via Chase, thanks!

I'm at rt 53 & nw highway (rt14) and will be part of the advance split team If anyone wants cartage to the NW burbs. My weekday availability kind of sucks so plan on same weekend or weekday after 9:00pm for best results.

I'll update it tomorrow, Steve. Thanks.

For the late comers, the order placement period of this buy is over. We are now in the collection phase which should last a few more days. Then we order and receive grain. Then the pickup period is last.

Can someone compile a list of who is getting what from tommyguners order? Thank you.

Any far south burbs and NWI guys, I'm planning on tugging an enclosed trailer up to pick up my 1400 lbs, if we haven't already coordinated let me know if you need cartage south. I-80 at the Indiana border (Calumet ave.)

You can't carry that on your pickup bed?

Yes certainly if you want to drop in with the fork truck, I'll buy a roll of shrink wrap to keep it snug...

Now I can focus on important stuff, like what I'm going to bring to share on grain pickup day...

Paid up... Thanks Bill

Thanks. Ghoti will update the database accordingly then I'll update the spreadsheet.

Sounds good, let me know when it's updated and I'll pay you.

Kids in bed, time to spend the rest of the night drinking DFH 60m and assembling my newly designed controller board prototype. Brewing a blonde ale tomorrow to test the board out.

How much do you have to pick up? I'm only getting around 100 lbs. of grain (1 full sack and a few splits). I'm coming in from Des Plaines and can probably give you a ride if you need it/want it, also of course depending on where you are.

Just paid for the 1lb Chinook hops from tommy's order.

So how does the pickup process work? What happens if we are out of town the week the shipment comes in?

Since there are so many people ordering should we add a column in the spreadsheet to indicate location so people in the same area can carpool?

Bill will keep us informed when the order comes in, then a day or so after it comes in there will be a group of volunteers that come over to handle organizing the splits. It's a big order with a lot of splits, so that usually takes a day. When everything is ready, he tells us to come get our shiz off his lawn.

Usually you find someone to pick it up for you and either hold it or drop it off. I have had the misfortune of the last two group buys being out of town, so I had someone pick up my stuff so I could reclaim it. Leaving it at Bill's for more than a couple days will likely result in a hefty Homebrew Tax on his part.

Post here where you live and likely someone will at least get it close to you.
