Bulk Hop Purchase?

Post by DrPaulsen »

Anyone interested in a joint bulk hop purchase?

Puterbaugh farms (i.e. Hops Direct) appear to be closing out their '08 inventory to make room for the '09 crop. At around $10/lb (i.e. $0.63/oz), it's pretty hard to beat these prices.

Holly smokes, now I feel like I overpaid. I might jump in. I will have to check inventory and let you know.

Jesus must have been a yeast. Who else could turn water into wine?

Damn good prices, I would go in on some! We should discuss and organize at the meeting this Thursday and do a full up club purchase.

Sounds good to me. I'll bring a print-out of the hop prices to the meeting. I won't be there until 8:00ish, so if the club wants to discuss it before then, someone else should bring a list.

I'd like to go in on the purchase if you're still going to go ahead with it.

There was a sign up sheet passed around last night that ended up with about four names on it.

Does anyone know who is responsible for the sign up sheet now? If so, they should probably steward this process.

Yeah, I didn't sign up last night because I wasn't sure. But I'd like to, if it isn't too late.
