Hope to have it up this weekend...been really busy and just did 700 miles in two days, so I am glad to be off the road!! If you want the list, you need to PM me with an email address. I will give you my email address and a link to the price list once I get it online. The list will likely be setup so you can edit it online and add what you want. I am aiming for a January buy at this point as the holidays are upon us and I don't want to deal with it too much at this point. I am still working things out with our new supplier as well. Cheers all!
Patiently waiting... Thanks for all your work in this!
OK, I think I got all of the new folks and a few of the old crowd that either were in Group Buy #1 or bought with others or somehow I was missing an email address for. Remember if you want the list I need an email address to send you the link and to contact you about the buys in the future.
Buy #6 has no sack limit or sack minimum. It will end third Sat. in Jan, will be ordered on Sun., and will be picked up the following Sat. according to the current plan. If we keep to this plan, then the buys will occur on a predictable schedule, either once a month or once every two months depending on how things go. So you can sign up anytime between now and Jan. 18th...
For the umteenth time, can I please have a price list from the new vendor
Hey there--can we order a bulk quantity of PBW this way?
Also, anyone interested in a split of honey malt, Vienna malt, or golden promise?
are there no group buys closer to you? you're of course welcome to join us on ours, but i gotta believe that there is a group buy somewhere closer...I'm looking for a few sacks. Sent my email address for the price list. I just need to check pricing to see if it's worth it for me to take the drive from South Jersey.

There might be some on this buy that live a little closer to you than DC that would be willing to let you pick up from them to save you a few miles.
Is that NJ LHBS owner the one from Brew Your Own Bottle or whatever it's called? He seemed like a really good guy from what I could tell. Shame if he's not able to work out the buys anymore. I had considered getting grain through him and having a friend up that way pick up for me, but the fine folks in this area were able to work out an arrangement.

Yup that's him. His name's Brett. He's a great guy and great LHBS owner. I purchase most/all of my supplies through his shop except for the occasional bulk order of base malt or certain hops I buy by the pound. He has really tried to make things easier and cheaper for his customers since the group buys stopped. He now sells base malt at $1/lb. Weigh and bag it yourself. I believe specialty grains at $2/lb... same deal... you weigh it out and bag it. I'm sure he'll get them going again, just not anytime very soon. I know he has a history of shoulder problems and surgeries and needs another, so hopefully they get him fixed up and back in the game.
But yes, I have nothing but great things to say about Brett and Brew Your Own Bottle.
Shoot, personally in that case I would offer to help hauling the sacks. I am sure he would appreciate the assistance and that would help in saving the buys. Then again, I once offered to assist the owner of the LHBS near me in carrying some stuff inside and he seemed offended or maybe thought I was trying to welch a freebie out of him.
