Won't place it until later next week. If we are close to 6lbs, i'll extend it to aim for that number.

Bump, going to order tonight. Jeff, I can't get yours at the 6-9lb rate, we need another .3/4 lb. I need to get this in tomorrow, so I'll try keep this bumped up for visibility.

Not a big deal if my ¼ lb. gets bumped off this one.

6*41=246$
5.5*45=249$
so it would be cost the same to order the full 6 lbs and divide it among everyone anyway. :cheers2:
hopefully someone orders the last half pound instead though
planning: beer for my cousin's wedding
Fermenting: black ipa
Conditioning:
Kegged: barrel barleywine from 2014 - i think i still have this somewhere

We're actually over the 6 pounds now, headed for 7, but it has to be rounded to whole pounds.

As PM'd I'm good for 2.25lb. I could probably find a home for another .25 to help round up if needed
