I can provide a nitrogen tank or two. However, since I just purchased the
tanks about a week ago, I have yet to purchase the correct fittings to
attach a regulator to the Nitrogen tanks.

No, the water program is not a "Go", unless you're volunteering to
organize

I only have one person bringing water, and no one to set this up and man
the
table, so let's not start adding extras, no matter how good the idea is.
The water tour is probably better for a meeting; drunken non-brewers don't
care about water analysis, I'm guessing. They want plentiful, cold water,
so . . .
Who else can bring a keg or two of water, any water, please? If you want
to
label the club box (still unaccounted for . . . ) with the city of origin
of your tap, please do. I've got a free ticket for someone who can be in
charge that day.
Thanks,
John

Jim, It sounds like the water program is a go. I completely agree with you
regarding the carbon filtering.
From previous experience, the club cooler is more than adequate and the
event usually has an ice truck on site. The only negative is the water
becomes charged in a few hours and to get any flow out of the cooler
requires about 20 psig. It would be great if someone could bring an
alternate gas like nitrogen or clean compressed air.

Subject: TC Area Water Tour at ABR?
Greetings,
Any chance re-doing the Metro Water Tour from a few
years back. Mpls vs St. Paul vs. assorted suburban tap waters?
Very nice if you could run it through the charcoal filter.
Double bonus points if you bring a copy of the water analysis
for your keg.
If you bring the water down on Friday, you may be able to
put it in the reefer trailer for overnight chilling. check
w/ our hosts on that. bergbrew(a)juno.com <bergbrew%40juno.com>
Cheers,
Jim

The MN Craft Brewers Guild has asked the MHBA to
have a table at the
Autumn
Brew Review on Saturday, August 29th. In light of
all that the
professional
brewing community has done for the club, we said,
"sure, we'll help!"
They would like us to provide kegs of water for the crowd. We will also
have club info at the table, info about Teach a Friend to Homebrew Day,
and
the fantastic teaching board produced by Gera.
Question #1 = who will volunteer to bring a keg or two of tap water?
Label
the keg, drop it at the table, then pick it up
before you head home.
Question #2 = can whoever has the club jockey box bring that? I'm
certain
that the Guild will have some ice available that
day. We can run the
kegs
through that.
Question #3 = who would like free admission to the ABR? I have two
tickets
for volunteers who can set up the table and watch
it for parts of the
day.
You can enter early, I believe, and participate
in the early drinking.
But
the two people need to be in charge of the table
and kegs and take them
away
at the end. I need these two people to organize
this process. You're on
the spot, but you get in free! :-)
I'm fairly certain that other MHBA members in attendance would probably
be
willing to relieve the table volunteers
periodically. Worst case
scenario-you spend ½ the day manning the table and the other volunteer
takes
the other ½.
Thanks much,
John
