Hey,
Free Hops Give-Away !!!!
Manticle handed me 2 boxes of hops from Temple Brewing on Saturday, to distribute at the next MM Meeting.
The boxes were surplus hops that had been sitting there for several months, and Temple were keen to offload in a charitable fashion as they would no longer be within their Quality Control restrictions (obviously Temple only use the freshest hops!).
The 2 boxes are:
5kg Horizon
5kg Select (GR)
They are each in a single massive vac-sealed foil bag.
So we can either split hops into whatever and everyone can vac seal at home, etc; or if we can bring a few vac sealers, we can do it all at the meeting.
Obviously the latter would be preferred, esp for those without vac sealers.
I can bring a vac sealer, but i'm not sure how it'll handle divvying up 10kg of hops by itself in one hit, and i definitely don't have enough vac bags for the task. So it'd be good if maybe a few of us can bring their vac sealers to cover what's required.
So basically, there will be 10kg of free hops to be given away at the next Merri Mashers Meeting, on the 25th of March, at the Great Northern, 7pm onwards.
Obviously, a big thanks to Temple Brewing for such an extremely generous donation to the Homebrewing community.
EDIT: changed POR to Horizon. Doh! It pays to check the label
