Grain Split

[DrewCarey82]

Linz actually mentioned that for 6 bags its a 10% discount and 20% for a dozen.

 

[crozdog]

Wheat and Munich might not be a problem, or do you want Vienna instead crozdog and Stuster?

6th bag: JW Vienna or Munich (light or dark) 1/3 crozdog 1/3 Stuster 1/3 mikem108

Edit: Crozdog the standard "munich" is the dark stuff (30EBC) is that an acceptable choice for the 6th bag?

Ben,

thanks for the clarification - Gerard has supplied me the light in the past it is about 22 ebc. I'd prefer to stick with that, but I'm happy to go with the flow.

Don't forget Gerard does 1/2 bags @ bag rates. He is putting in an order tonight.... FYI, he doesn't normally stock galaxy or bo pils.....

[DrewCarey82]

To be honest I am not fussed if its JW Pils.

 

[DJR]

OK to clarify, we'll make it light munich.

2 bag JW Light munich - 1/3 bag for EB, 1/3 for DJR, 1/3 for DC82, 1/3 for Stuster, 1/3 for crozdog, 1/3 mikem108
1 bag BB Galaxy - 1/2 a bag for DJR, 1/2 a bag for EB.
1 bag JW Wheat - 1/2 a bag for Crozdog, 1/2 mikem108
1 bag Weyermann Boh Pils - 1/2 DC82 (1/2 Crozdog?)
1 bag Bairds Maris Otter - 1/3 of a bag for DJR, 1/3 for DC82, 1/3 for Stuster
1 bag Weyermann Vienna - 1/3 bag Stuster, 1/3 bag mikem108, 1/3 bag DC82

I know he doesn't normally stock the Bo Pils and the Galaxy but he should be able to get it for us, if not i'll just get some more JW Pils. No rush though, i think we'll order next week so if we can somehow get to 12 bags between now and then, then that's good.

Ben,

I've still got a fair bit from the last bulk, but I'd love to have a go with some Maris Otter and some real Bo Pils.

I'd be happy to take 1/2 a bag of each, or 1/3, or even 1/4 if this helps to buy more bags.


Trev

 

[DJR]

Great stuff Trev, always good to have more in on the buy.

What if we went to the following. 2/5ths of a bag of MO for all that want it to split it correctly (that would be 10Kg as opposed to the 8.33kg that 1/3 would be!). I've made the JW L Munich 2/5ths to take Mike out since he's getting the Vienna instead.

2 bags JW Light munich - 2/5 bag for EB, 2/5 for DJR, 2/5 for DC82, 2/5 for Stuster, 2/5 for crozdog
2 bags Bairds Maris Otter - 2/5 of a bag for DJR, 2/5 for DC82, 2/5 for Stuster, 2/5 Mikem108, 2/5 Trev
1 bag JW Pilsner - 1/2 a bag for DJR, 1/2 a bag for EB.
1 bag JW Wheat - 1/2 a bag for Crozdog, 1/2 mikem108
1 bag Weyermann Boh Pils - 1/3 DC82, 1/3 Trev, 1/3 Crozdog
1 bag Weyermann Vienna - 1/3 bag Stuster, 1/3 bag mikem108, 1/3 bag DC82

 

[Stuster]

I spoke to Gerard last night and he is able to get all the malts, except perhaps the Galaxy. As crozdog said, Gerard'll be ordering again on Monday so if possible it might be a good idea to get this order to him by lunchtime Monday. I think the 2/5 of a bag is a good idea.

 

[DJR]

Excellent, even the Weyermann Vienna? Might have to get some of that myself I've updated the post to reflect that we will get JW Pils instead of BB Galaxy. Won't be a huge difference between the two AFAIK.

 

[Stuster]

So, if DJR wants some Vienna, does anybody else want 2/5 of a bag of Vienna to make it up to 2 bags?

 

[redbeard]

yeah, ill take the 2/5 of a bag of Vienna. pm me about pickup / delivery.

 

[Stuster]

2 bags JW Light munich - 2/5 bag for EB, 2/5 for DJR, 2/5 for DC82, 2/5 for Stuster, 2/5 for crozdog
2 bags Bairds Maris Otter - 2/5 bag for DJR, 2/5 for DC82, 2/5 for Stuster, 2/5 Mikem108, 2/5 Trev
2 bags Weyermann Vienna - 2/5 bag Stuster, 2/5 bag mikem108, 2/5 bag DC82, 2/5 bag DJR, 2/5 bag redbeard
1 bag JW Pilsner - 1/2 a bag for DJR, 1/2 a bag for EB.
1 bag JW Wheat - 1/2 a bag for Crozdog, 1/2 mikem108
1 bag Weyermann Boh Pils - 1/3 DC82, 1/3 Trev, 1/3 Crozdog

If any of you don't want to up your order to 2/5 bag rather than 1/3 bag, I'm willing to take that.

Any more for any more?

 

[DJR]

Hey, on second thought, i don't need any Vienna, so count me out of that. Heaps of Light Munich will be great for me. Maybe you guys should go to a 1/4 of a bag each for 1 bag, or 1/2 a bag of 2 bags.

Not entirely sure where we should get this delivered to, my place is OK (Stanmore), hopefully people aren't going to find it too hard to get over to mine to pick up their grain. I guess it will be just like the hops bulk buy - everyone deposits their share into my account and i'll pay Gerard for it all. And we have to work out the best way to package these up - i have some large ziplock bags but they only fit about 2 kilos max, would be better to find some bigger containers that aren't going to split and will handle being stored for a while.

1 bag JW Wheat - 1/2 a bag for Crozdog, 1/2 mikem108
1 bag Weyermann Boh Pils - 1/3 DC82, 1/3 Trev, 1/3 Crozdog

So what do you guys think? 1/2 bag of Vienna or a 1/4 bag?

I'd be up for 1/2 bag of JW pilsner as well? Anybody else want some?

 

[Stuster]

Anybody for some Trad ale? JW Pilsner? Anything?

 

[DrewCarey82]

Yeah I'll go a 1/2 a bag of JW Pils with you mate.

Lazy 50kg of grain. My new fermenting fridge will be going O/T.

Look right? I will call Gerard this afternoon....

 

[DrewCarey82]

I am pretty sure there is a extra discount for a dozen DJR, maybe hang off til the end of the week to see if we can get a extra 2?

 

[Stuster]

When I spoke to Gerard on Friday, he said 10% for over 6 bags, then 1% more off for every bag over 10. So it won't make much difference. I'd say let's do it. DJR, Gerard said to phone before lunchtime today if we want it in with this week's order. I'll take a bag of JW Trad ale as well, unless somebody is willing to share it with me.

 

[DrewCarey82]

When do you need the cash by mate? Next Thurs would be good for me as this week it would be stretching it tight.

Thought this would take a lot longer to get together.....

 

[DJR]

I'm easy, should have my bonus during this week, as long as it's not too slow getting to me it's OK. Stuster of course needs to pay me straight away because he's getting so much - maybe he should pay it and organise the deposits
