Subject: [THC] free hops
Message-ID: <AANLkTimdD6B50Kmp1Mr-L3dYhSLm96hmsWeNhm-42Gj4@mail.gmail.com>

As I was leaving the house this morning, I caught my landlord ripping
my hops plants out of the ground.  (I was not happy!)
Long story short- I have two hop plants available for free to a good home.

One is Cascade, and I can't remember the other for the life of me.  I
was going to look it up before using them for the first time this
year.
I've posted pictures here:
http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~jdboley/hops1.jpg
http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~jdboley/hops2.jpg

They are now lying on my back porch, with the roots/rhizomes in water.
The first person to pick them up gets them.  (3609 Claremont, Lafayette)
Feel free to just grab them if I'm not home, but please let the list
know when they're no longer available.

- Jon

Message-ID: <AANLkTikNdHLaHEZm7MsMKCwzyyDFXX=rG+NLVeyyooj5@mail.gmail.com>

I'll be heading to Great Fermentations tomorrow morning. I plan to be
there shortly after they open at 10:00am so if you'd like me to pick
up your order, please: 1) place (and pay for) your order before GFI
closes today, 2) let them know that Kevin from THC will be picking it
up, and 3) let me know that I'm picking something up for you.

I live at 6531 E 1000 S (15-30 minutes out of town, depending on where
you live), and plan to be around all weekend. I work at Purdue, so we
could also arrange a WL hand-off on Monday.

Cheers,
Kevin

Hi all,

In case anyone was on the fence about brewing this Sunday at the meeting Chris has generously offered to provide base malt (Pale 2-row) and yeast (American Ale) to all THC members who are brewing.

I you want to brew, but just need hops let us know and I'm sure we can locate a variety that will work.

There is information on becoming a member and the upcoming meetings on the website http://tippyhomebrewers.org/ and you can check out the flyer http://tippyhomebrewers.org/2010Callout_FINAL.pdf

Cheers!

I will bring the moto-malt-mill Tom Hess so kindly made of my little old 
Schmidling mill a few years ago.  Guess I better get that out and dust 
it off and see what's up (make sure all it in order.)

We'll be dropping it the eve before so it will be there first thing. 

It will be a FUN day!

But maybe not a very good one. I signed up to be an Evange-ale-ist a 
couple years ago when they (they = AHA,. American Homebrewers' 
Association) were asking for volunteers, but then never got much of 
anything from the AHA. This between the dashed lines came to me from 
AHA's Kathryn Porter on Sept 1 and I should have shared it with you then.


--------------------------
"Evange-Ale-ists ? thanks to the promoting of an AHA Evange-Ale-ist, I?d 
like to pass along the current AHA membership offer. See below my email 
for details.

New and renewing members can get a FREE AHA t-shirt with their 
membership. /Please/ have them purchase the membership online. The 
member will need to use the promo code listed below to get the t-shirt. 
Also, for you to get credit, have them write in the comment field 
?credit AHA Evange-Ale-ist YOUR NAME HERE?.

Please note, the t-shirt offer is ONLY valid with a full price 
membership. No one will get an Evange-Ale-ist discount and the shirt. 
You however can still gain points towards your lifetime AHA membership."
--------------------------

If anybody is interested, write and I will send the promo codes. Too 
heavily formatted to put in the Mailman mail.

Also, if anybody else wants to be the Evange-ale-ist, well, I could be 
talked out of it pretty easily. :-)

Message-ID: <0268545D5B317C4EAD060E07C3B846FE42A7540D71@VPEXCH05.purdue.lcl>

Hi all,

Just a few reminders for Sunday?s meeting.


?         No commercial beer.  Really the only rule you have to follow.  You can bring your homebrew to share.  You don?t have to.  You will be able to buy People?s beer, and sample homebrew.

?         Park out back.  This is most important for those brewing or staying most of the day.  Burroughs St.  (~300 yds past front entrance)takes you around back.

?         Don?t bring food.  Meetings are typically pot-luck/BBQ type affairs, but this time we will be providing food at 2:00.

?         Bring a chair if you want to sit around and hang out.  The extract brew will probably go from 2:00 until about 5:00, and the all-grain brewers starting at 11:00 will likely finish around then too.

?         You must be 21 with ID.  There will be an ID check and you might even get a fancy paper bracelet out of it!

Brewers.

?         Base malt and yeast provided by People?s.

?         There will be an electric mill you can use to crush it.


If there is anyone who hasn?t memorized the route to People?s you can get directions here?.

Club members and the rest of you who are fun to hang out with -

Oct meeting is some Friday in the near future "after work!"  Our house 
just far enough west to call it out in the country.  Come any time after 
5:30 and bring a tent if you want to stay over; we'll have breakfast 
too.  No brewing, just siting around and having a fire, talking about 
beer.... relaxing under the night sky.  The mosquitoes will mostly be 
gone, and the fire will help keep them away...

But WHICH FRIDAY?  Oct 1, or Oct 8 or Oct 15.

Doodle poll is at
http://www.doodle.com/q8d3v7xw6w3ep7nk

Do the doodle, soon, please, if you care to.  I'm favoring Oct 8 but 
it's the Friday of Purdue's October Break four day weekend.  (And I'm 
not expecting a huge response to the doodle poll, but it's fun to mess 
around with in any case.)

By Friday Sep 24 I will choose a date.  If a serious number of people 
*don't* like Oct 8, well, then it will probably be on Oct 15.  But I 
rather expect Oct 8 to be the date. 

Thanks,
Linda

Members:

        If you receive the Great Fermentations newsletter, you are aware of the very cool competition they have going on for October.  They are having a competition to produce a new brown ale kit for their store.  The concept is to brew a batch of your best brown ale ( which need not be strictly to style ), and submit 3 bottles by October 23.  There are some criteria, including using ingredients available at Great Fermentations, being commercially viable ( if your beer costs $50 to make they might not sell many kits ), and not using herbs, spices etc.  The prize for the winner is to have your recipe produced as a kit at Great Fermentations, and to have that kit bear your name for the beer.  Sounds like inspiration to fire up the brew pot!  
        If you are interested in this small bit of brewing immortality, you can sign up for their e-mail newsletter at www.greatfermentations.com<http://www.greatfermentations.com/>, and check out all the details.  Chances are good that I will be able to transport entries down to GFI for those who wish to enter.  Slainte,

                                                                                                                                                                            Lloyd

My batch of "Wild Hops Brown" would constitute a TERRIBLE example, a  
classic "do not enter this no matter how good it is."  I'm not saying  
it's going to be any kind of a prize winner, but even if it were, it  
would be a terrible entry into this competition.  Due to the fact that  
it is made from the 7th through 11th gallons of runnings from a batch  
requiring a 33 lbs grain bill, the first 6 gal of runnings went into  
the Russian Imperial Stout for next Feb Winter Warmer.  It's just not  
kit material in several ways.

Homebrew club social meeting in a couple of weeks.  Just sitting around 
and being relaxed and talking about our favorite subjects, eating and 
laughing and sampling beers.  Maybe meads too.  (Of course meads.  There 
are at least six or seven different kegs of meads in my storage area.)

Oct 8, "after work" or approximately 5:30 start time. Ending time is 
fuzzy, not completely defined. Stay over, bring a tent and camp. Bring a 
chair and some food and beer to share.   Bring the kids, bring the 
parents, bring a friend.

We will sit around the fire and relax.  Stay 30 minutes or longer; stay 
overnight and have breakfast on Saturday.  Maybe we'll cook some 
potatoes and eggs in a skillet on the fire..... I'm hoping we'll have 
the cider press staked firmly in place and some crates of apples ready.
