MHBA,
Pine Tree Orchards will be pressing cider on 11/30. I intend to pick up the cider on Sunday 12/5, it will be given to us in a large tote that can store up to 250 gallons. I propose that we meet at my place near Uptown in Minneapolis that day to fill carboys, pails, growlers etc. I have not pinned down exact timing but I figure early to mid afternoon and would appreciate input from others on feasibility. I will also be around all day Monday if that works better for some. The price will be $4 per gallon (normally $5) and you will need to bring your own vessel(s) to fill. The price has been rounded up to allow for excess cider purchase as our measuring will not be precise. I assure you all in advance any excess cider left over will be provided to club members to ferment and share at club meetings. Below is a list of requests I have so far. If any one else is interested or if you would like to change your quantities please let me know. I would like to give the orchard an exact number soon so I will be setting a cut off date for changes of 11/23. I assume you all have proper vessels, but if you don't, speak up. I'm sure there are people in the club that can help you out. Please let me know if you have any questions.
