Tim at MW&B wants to brew again this year. We have 2 systems and are looking for a Grainfather (Mitch is not in NS now).

If someone with a GF wants to brew May 6th let us know. Tim supplies the grain and hops.

He wants a GF. Your system (I don't think you have a GF) could be better used at another site.

I'd love to brew with you, especially gluten free. Tim sells the GF and would like the exposure.

You sure about that Sandy?

Seems to me Mike was the person who had trouble with the Black Box Comp grain (flour) clogging his GF…

Yup I brew on a Grainfather. I did Garrison last year with it. It would be fun to do a homebrew store this year.

I am sure of nothing.

Mike your in. Lets talk about what you want to brew so the grain and hops will be available.

You pick a recipe and I'll get Tim on it.

What's the easiest way to get the recipe to you? I put it into beersmith's recipe database under Hawaiian pale ale or I can send the file via email.

Tim has the grain and hop bill.

Now I need to come up with a brew. Tim over ordered Willamette and I may do a smash with that.

Message from MW&B.
This Saturday is National Homebrew Day and we will have three all grain brewing systems set up on the front lawn with three brewers and three different recipes. The action starts at 9am and will run until approx 1pm. Stop by and have a look at the different processes to make an all-grain wort and speak with one of the brewers. Along with the brew day, we will be offering 15% Off all regular priced items storewide all weekend, Friday thru Sunday inclusive. We hope to see you on Saturday.

Sandy

Do we have a rainy day plan? It looks like there is going to be a lot of water coming down tomorrow. Not a big deal for the propane brewers but electric might have an issue with brewing outside.

We pulled the plug on this for today but still want to do it in the next few weeks.

Discount is still good.
