Thanks to the ex-wife, I may have trouble on the 22nd. How should that be handled?

Sorry to hear that. Exes, they have their way...
Can you send someone else to pick it up?
Or maybe someone in the buy can transport your share and hold on to it until you can pick it up from him.
Just let us know, so we can release it to the right person.
anyone training for the BJCP exam who wants to prep hit me up!
c'mon folks, step on up and grab them golden naked oats!
from NB: "Simpsons Golden Naked Oats. 10° L. Sweet berry-nut flavor. Use to add a deep golden hue, light caramel flavors, and a creamy, satiny finish."
from Midwest: "Golden Naked Oats: This specialty grain lends a sweet berry-nut flavor. Use at a rate of 4-15% of the total grist to deliver a deep golden hue with light caramel flavors as well as a creamy, satin finish and a fantastic shaving cream foam. Exotic ingredient for subtle nutty difference. Try this as a secret ingredient in literally any beer style! Proven to go especially well in Pale Ales, IPAs, Bitters, Brown Ales, or Stouts - you'll love it! Lovibond Rating: 6.0-14°"

plus, they're called "naked"... how can you say no?!?
I'm not prepping for anything but I've thought about getting into tasting beer. Not for judging, just to figure out what flaws my beers have. Any suggestion where I could go?
Back on topic: Fritz, would you please up my share of some Golden Nakedness to 10#? Feel free to make that 15# if push comes to shove at the end of the split!

Will do.
Anyone between Rockville and Frederick able to help?
There's someone in Point of Rocks, IIRC. I drive through there to/from work every day.

I live in PoR and could help you out. Samples of your brew as payment, maybe?
Changed to 10#. Beats Viagra.
Added. 15# of Golden Naked Goodness left!
Little insider knowledge: I've been using (rolled/flaked) oats in brew for a long time. A little toasting brings out more flavor if you want that. I also eat a lot of oats with a little brown sugar and raisins.
Now those naked ones need a little more TLC: milled rather finely and cooked (cereal mash), don't forget.

golden naked oats do not need a cereal mash. just crush and add to the regular mash.
I'm in Monrovia if that helps. So let me know and Stonebrewer, Islandlizard who's picking up your grain and we'll make it happen.
Also let me know if you need a stir plate I have those that just need magnets as well. Free
As sweetcell pointed out, these golden naked oats are a crystal/caramel malt. They're not raw oats!
Description:
If you've never brewed with it, you've probably never brewed with anything like it. While most oats used in brewing are unmalted adjuncts, Simpsons Golden Naked Oats™ is actually a huskless crystal malt. This unique malt has a subtle, nutty flavor with a subdued, grainy sweetness. It imparts light golden hues to the wort while adding body and contributing to a smooth mouthfeel. It also helps produce a creamy, robust head. Although this exotic ingredient is not a traditional component of any beer styles, Simpsons Golden Naked Oats™ is perfect for malty or full-bodied beers - especially Nut Brown Ales and Stouts.
Crystal malts are gently cooked during the malting process. Cooking initiates the enzymatic conversion of starches into fermentable sugars, and caramelizes some of the sugars as the malt reaches its final color. This eliminates the need to mash crystal malt, and ensures that some of the sugars will survive fermentation to sweeten the beer.

OK, I will close the golden naked oats. Give me the last 5#. Cheers!
Someone want to pick up for me? Might be able to help close some splits ... Too bad looks like I missed out on some unclothed oats ... Maybe next time...

If no one out your way volunteers, you can always count on me to snag your grains for ya!
Since I'm ordering DME and they ended up being free (amazon shipped just one box instead of the many more promised), I'll bring them Nov22(or whenever we end up doing the buy).

Let's say yes, you'll pick it up. We can work on details in PM. I'm hoping I can work around it and do my own pickup (not that I don't trust anyone. Just trying to make life easy).
Thanks for the offer on the stir plate. I have one that I'm tweaking right now. I think either not enough amps on the power supply or something messed up in the variable speed control (wrong sized rheostat or resistor somewhere).
BUT, I bought a couple of bucks worth of rare earth magnets from Amazon. I think 1/4" diameter, 1/8" thick. If you want, I can share... Four? I think two will work, but four to make sure.

You're the best, Keith.
And everyone [EVERYONE!] needs one of his stirrers! They beat any alternative.
Maybe a few of us can relinquish some of our allotments. How much do you want?
I can give you 2.5#. Anyone else?
We don't have to cut at 5# increments. We can do 3# or 7.5# for example to help you out.

My daughter just gave me her sack of Maris Otter - too busy to brew - so if it's OK I'll drop my order... So just a sack of white wheat for me. If it's a problem I'll keep the MO however.

No problem. MO Removed.
Hey All. I participated in the group buy back when claphamsa ran it. This will be my first time in the new buy. I would like the following:
1 x RAH1004 Rahr Pale Ale 50 lb
1 x WEY1004 Weyermann® Bohemian Pilsner 25 Kg (55 Lb.)
and I would like to take 10# of the WEY1017 Weyermann® Light Munich 25 Kg (55 Lb.)
1 x RAH1004 Rahr Pale Ale 50 lb
1 x WEY1004 Weyermann® Bohemian Pilsner 25 Kg (55 Lb.)
and I would like to take 10# of the WEY1017 Weyermann® Light Munich 25 Kg (55 Lb.)
I live in Damascus, and take the Marc train every Monday through Friday out of Germantown. Let me know if it would be easier if I picked up for you. Would be happy to help.

I ride out of Germantown too. Do you take the 5:45?
Cant get up that early
I usually take the train coming from Frederick that leaves Germantown station at 6:54am. Occasionally I will take the 6:35am train. Is it quicker for you to drive to Germantown than get on the train in Point of Rocks?
Welcome to our buy!
All added.
==> 5 splits and 120# left. Come on guys, get some more grain! <==

A quick note on golden naked oats - great for so called session strength IPAs. If you like a little Crystal in your ipa sub in GNO for light Crystal in your recipe. I'll use 1/4 lb in a 5 gallon batch for <1.050 pale ales.
Cheers!
Steve
Cheers!
