Finally got my hands on this kit and started this an hour ago. Almost lost out again a 3rd year in a row!

Good going on getting that one. Glad you got it. It is sort of like a celebration for you on reaching 1000 posts.

 

[Wade E]

Wise A$$!

Didnt see your posts as i was taking a shower.

 

[grapeman]

You were showing up as being online for a half hour after I set it back!

 

[Wade E]

I left it online as I usually get interrupted while online, you know, 2 kids!

Nice post count by the way!

Ya like that eh? I only need about 5000 more posts to go to get to 100,000!

I'll put it back later. I want to see if anybody else notices it!


All kidding aside- Have a Great Thanksgiving Day Wade. Take a bit of time off and enyoy the day with the kids and wife- and don't forget that nice big dog!

 

[Wade E]

I will also have the Bro and Mom&Dad over. I also have the day after T-Day off along with the weekend so I have a nice little vacation now. Fri. is not paid but I can use a little time off as my back has been really starting to bother me the last few days. I guess it could be all these new wines going.

Where did you procure it from?

 

[Wade E]

Brewerylane.com Didnt want to stray from George but he was out and I needed some.

 

[gaudet]

I'm sure he understands...............

 

[Wade E]

Let me tell you the package did arrive but was not in the kind of shape that Georges boxes look like and nowhere near the same time frame, I was starting to panic!

 

[gaudet]

I was debating on ordering one tonight and I was about to check out when I saw it was going to cost about $50 just for the shipping. I will hold off until after the holidays or I will just wait until next year.

 

[Wade E]

Where are you located as even with the high shipping the price is reasonable and this is a hard to find kit, others are smaller shipping prices with much higher kit prices which end up more expensive believe me I checked them all out and this was the cheapest at least for me and Im in Ct. They wont last long as this is a revered kit!

 

[gaudet]

New Orleans is where I am at. I also neglected to say that I was ordering a 3 gallon carboy along with that. Shhh don't tell the wife

 

[uavwmn]

gaudet, a website called "High Gravity.com" has the OCP kit for a reasonable price and shipping.

Gone.......... Vamoose......... No More...........

Thanks for the link. I think I will wait on that one till next season. Reason being I just got into this Obsess... err... hobby this year. I have done five 6 gallon batches and three 1 gallon batches. I will be less tempted to try to drink a bottle of something that would be so good before it's time. I do plan on a bunch of batches in 09. Plotting strawberry, blackberry, blueberry and more muscadine.... I will throw in a kit or two. If I can get my hands on some cranberries locally I will get a batch of that going real soon.

 

[Wade E]

Oh well, I missed it the 1st 2 years that I tried!

I will be starting this tomorrow night hopefully unless my day goes bad.
