sorry for the last couple of posts I should have sent these to majordomo instead of MBA I thought the list has been real quiet. its because I have been unsubsribed since march must be because I quit Qwest and ATT has been switching so now I "think" I have a stable email address rwolfgram(a)attbi.com Ron Wolfgram St Paul MN

Re: FW: Malt

by David H Berg

How do these rumors get started? Someone said to me the other night they heard Crisp was closing, to which I responded "I find that hard to believe, I just saw William Crisp in Cleveland." I thought whomever I was talking to was just misinformed; I didn't realize the mill had been whipped into high speed. Rest assured, both Kelly and Dingemanns are doing an excellent job filling in the gap left by DWC closing.

FW: Malt

by Moranz, Mike

I haven't kept up with this as much as some of you so, here's an update from an excellent source. Kelly has long supported the MHBA and his effort in the industry has caused much positive change.

CALLING BEER JUDGES: Upper Mississippi Mash-Out April 27-28

by Christopher Hadden

Last call to all beer judges (or wanna-be beer judges!) We're still in need of a few good tasters for the Upper Mississippi Mash-Out Beer, Mead and Cider Competition! We will be doing two sessions of judging this Saturday, April 27 at 3pm and 7pm, and another session on Sunday, April 28 at 1:30pm. The location is Harwell's Steak House and Brewery in Shakopee. We have need of BJCP-certified judges, but you are welcome to help if you would like to learn how to judge - inexperienced judges will be teamed with Certified judges. This is the first year of this contest, cosponsored by the Minnesota Home Brewers Association and the St.Paul Homebrew Club. Please help us to make it a great success! For more information, go to http://www.mnbrewers.com/mashout. Contact us at mash-out(a)nbrewer.com if you are interested.

Re: Paint for brewery stand

by Randy Mosher

Gary, They sell (outside the city limits, anyway) a heat-resistand spray paint for touching up gas grilles and the like. As I recall Krylon made one. Home Depot ought to have something. As for Swagelok, and related stuff, there's always a load of it (84 listings right now) on Ebay. Try the keyword Swagelok, or get to the "Other Industries/Process Equipment" category. You'll get it for alot less than you were paying at Moving Brews, I bet. There's pumps, heat exchangers, Tri-Clover, whatever you might need, too. Happy hunting. --Randy on 4/24/02 10:14 AM, Gary Smith at mandolinist(a)INTERLYNC.COM wrote: > Hi, > > I'm going to be completing my brewery stand today.

MN hot luck

by Gary Sinnen

Well only in Minnesota can you get record highs in the 90s and a week later a 4 snow storm, and yes the storm was the day of the Hot Luck dinner so the turn out was smaller than hoped for, but the 22 people that did show up came with a eat the heat attitude. Had a great turn out from the homebrews, the food was great from chipotle leg of lamb, Cajun beans, wings, to a salmon kiwi horseradish bagel. We collected $179 for Sharing and Caring Hands had plenty of door prizes from the sponsors which I thank again. Bandana Bandito, Habby Habaneros, Howards Yummies, Kalahari Pepper, Jardine Foods, Mi Tejas Spice, Mild to Wild, My Hot Sauces, Red Lion, TCs, Tony Chachere, Kato, Blind Betty, Team Sauce, Frog Ranch Thank you Gary _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com
