Hi - Welcome to the Buffalo group buy for January/February 2017.

I'd like to officially open the Buffalo Group Buy for January/February 2017.

We have an opportunity to get special bulk pricing from Dunkirk Homebrew Supplies in Dunkirk, NY. I will post the grain and pricing separately.

This is our seventh group buy. I received several emails from people asking about doing another one.

Rules of the group buy:
  • We need a minimum of 10 50/55 lb. sacks to get the special pricing.
  • 10 lb. sacks are available, but do not count toward the minimum sack count.
  • Please PM me directly with your order. If it's posted online it won't count. Include the product ID listed below, the description, and the price to help minimize mistakes.
  • I will keep the buy open until 1/27/2017 assuming we get the minimum # of orders.
  • All grain must be picked up at the same time. I will take care of the pickup.
  • Grain will be distributed in Buffalo. We can determine a convenient location for everyone as this progresses. Worst case, we can distribute at my house in Pendelton.
  • I will provide updates on the amount of grain we've ordered as the buy progresses.
  • If you want to do splits, please make arrangements among yourselves.
  • Once the buy is closed, I will provide a final spreadsheet detailing everyone's orders.
  • Payment will be required prior to ordering, so please be prompt with your payment. You can PayPal me directly or send me a check made out to the vendor. I will forward all payments to the vendor. I'll provide payment details after we close the group buy.

Group Buy Process:
  • Accept orders through 1/27/2017.
  • Group buy closes on 1/27/2017.
  • Accept payment (~1 week).
  • Place order with vendor.
  • Wait for order to arrive.
  • Pickup order in Dunkirk.
  • Distribute in Buffalo, NY area. Location TBD.

Just now saw this. No buyers yet? I'm surprised they don't have Cargill malt since they carry Gambrinus and Dingemans.
 
If there are few people interested in buying but you guys don't end up with enough to do this, my dad and I are planning a Cargill buy through the warehouse in PA possibly in early February. The whole line of Cargill, Gambrinus, Dingemans, Paul's, Meussdoerffer, etc. I need some sacks pronto to brew anything in February. Only problem is pick-up would be either in Wyoming County or I could possibly set something up in Batavia.
 
  • 3 - 1602C-SWAEN ALE MALT 3L- 55 LB $50.00
  • 2 - 1866C-AVANGARD MALZ PREMIUM WHEAT MALT (2.5L)-55 LB $49.00
  • 1 - 1604C-SWAEN MUNICH LIGHT MALT 5L-55 LB $52.00
  • 1 - 1862C-AVANGARD MALZ PREMIUM VIENNA MALT (5L)-55 LB $49.00
3 sacks to go.

Will have an order tonight as soon as I go through what I have left. We'll definitely be ordering three full sacks between my dad and I.

Are you able to get access to the Cargill warehouse? The old group buy in Pittsburgh used to use that, but I thought they cut off access to anyone other than breweries and brick-and-mortar homebrew shops.

They may have at one point but all I had to do was fill out a new customer account worksheet. No minimum on ordering but he said the shipping is only worth it to buy as much as I could store at once. Buying a single sack would probably be no different than driving to a homebrew store and paying full price on it. We're eventually hoping to just buy a pallet but since we are going to get in on this group buy it won't be until spring before we can place an order through Cargill.

Interesting. I know Pittsburgh used to buy a pallet at a time.

I'm glad to see that it's opening up again. It used to be that you needed a Tax ID and a loading dock to order. I tried to find someone who would sell grain to home brewers for a long time. I never had any luck.

Still need a federal EIN on your customer worksheet but I have one for business. They will ship single bags fed ex, but still need a fork truck or loading dock for freighted pallets. Plenty of access to both so it wasn't a problem.
 
Sorry - I've been really busy this week.

Group buy is officially closed. We had enough to do the group buy.

I do need everyone's personal email address and real name. I need to send out a final spreadsheet, and I can't do attachments on HBT.

I'll send out a message with payment instructions as soon as I can.
 
I sent an email last night. Pickup will be tomorrow @ 6:30PM. Sorry it's so late, but I have a prior commitment in the morning.

Pickup site will be the Mighty Taco lot on Walden, across from the Galleria.

If anyone has issues with the time/date, I can store the grain at my house until you're able to pick it up.
