I was talking to JonW today, and he mentioned that when the club took a tour of Beach City Brewery, Glenn handed out copies of his business plan to everyone. Does anyone have a scanned copy that they can send me? If so, I would appreciate it. I'm trying to review as many brewery business plans as I ...

I've been watching all of that stuff unfold through blog posts. It's quite interesting and a little strange that it would have been put out there as a brett . I'm wondering if the famous BSI Brett Drie (their version of Trois) strain is also Sacch? Chad Yakobson followed up to my comment and said no...

I'm going to try to make this one as well.

Yeah, I already go the new ones. They work a little better than the original ones. For some reason, I had thought the new ones would be a screw on lid (the collar comes off the growler to show the screw threads). Yeah, I noticed that the threads looked like my Hydro Flask and Fifty Fifty growlers, ...

Cool. The flip-top ones are a PIA. The newer lids are also flip top. If you look at an earlier post, you'll see they are lower profile, so they are easier to use, but still a little tricky at first. I haven't used the new lids yet for beer, but the old ones do not seem to hold pressure well without...

It looks like the new lids will be delivered to Brewer's Hardware today.

The Growlers just arrived today at Brewers Hardware! Derrin was nice enough to let us have them delivered there for easy pickup during business hours. If you are in need of anything from Brewers Hardware, you can combo the trip. To make it easier on Derrin and his employees, I have given them a spre...

Let me know what you want and I can ask them. Email me: luke at ocluke dot com.

That's perfectly fine with me, but don't expect the growlers to come filled :-/

A quick update on the growler situation. It seems as though they hit an unanticipated snag in the production process, and the growlers have only recently left the port. This puts the growlers arriving to the MiiR facility the second week of September, being shipped out to us shortly thereafter. I'll...

If you've been on HBT lately, you may have seen these FastFerment conicals . At $90/shipped (or $80/each in a 4-pack), I'm thinking that I might pick 1 up to have around for my split batches (I generally brew 10 gallons) where I'm using a yeast that I'd like to re-pitch or save, but prefer not to go...

We're up to 11, so if we get at least 1 more, we'll be at $3/each.

I'll take one too if it's not too late. I'll send the paypal later when I'm on my other pc. It's not too late. I think we're going to be good as long as I update/pay them before our order ships out, assuming they have enough. I want to wait to give them 1 order for the handles so I'm not bugging th...

Between you and I, we have 6. If we don't get 6 more, I'll let you know and you can decide if you want them at $5, or prefer that I reimburse you.

Due to the lack of response, I'm assuming nobody wants a handle for their growler(s)? I'm buying 3 either way. If anyone else wants one or more, let me know. It's $3/each at a quantity of 12+. I think it's $5/each at quantities under that. Update : The account rep says that as long as some of the ha...
