Hi there, I just bought my first kit, and will be making beer this coming weekend. I am currently reading How to Brew by Morrison but I am really interested in reading "Brew Your Own" magazines. If you have any backstock magazines lying around that you are done with I'd love to buy them from you ( or you could give them away from the kindness of your heart :) Send me an email, Evgeny.bashirov(a)gmail.com Thanks, Evgeny

6 cases of clean empty bottles available in Ramsey

by Crist, Jonathan

A friend of mine has 6 cases of empty beer bottles - cleaned and labels removed. He live in Ramsey and would prefer to give them to a homebrewer rather than recycle them. Please let me know if anyone is interested. Jonathan

Re: [mba] [mnbrewers] 2011 Club Cider Buy

by beckel

Just wanted to update everyone that we have reached the 250 gallon mark on cider requests, which is the maxiumum ammount that the tote can hold. I will be contacting the orchard next week and hope to have more details and will also clarify that 250 gallons is really the volume of the tote (there was a small amount of head space last year, perhaps we can get a bit more). Cheers! Jonathan Beckel

2011 Club Cider Buy

by beckel

Greetings, This year we will be doing another Club Cider buy from the same orchard as last year. Aside from the terrible winter weather and the brief loss of feeling in my hands last years haul was a big success and the quality of the cider was fantastic. As of now the tentative date is the first weeks of November (probably on a Saturday) but the orchard is very busy at the moment and we won't have a solidified date until the end of October. The price will be $4 a gallon again and you will need to supply your own vessel(s) (ideally 5 gallon buckets). I will inquire upon the varieties of apples used once the orchard knows more. Please let me know how much you would like in the next couple weeks so we can get this ball rolling, ideally in 5 gallon quantities. I will update you all near the end of the month when I have confirmed dates. Club members will get first preference. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks! Jonathan Beckel
