We were talking about this at the last meeting and probably should have do something before now about it. Anybody with any excess specialty grains / hops looking to trade bring them along and in sure find a good home for them. Might be a bit late now for this months meet up but I reckon we should look into this for meetings going forward.

could also bring some of the more common hops and grains if you have newbie kit brewers and get them started on hacking the kits.

So here's a photo from the nursery!
The new ones are now planted up against the wood they are:
L to R: Cascade, Magnum, Saazer
In the pots are LtoR:
4 Hallertau Mittlefruh, 2 Northern Brewer, 5 Tettnager
I also have a few more taken from cuttings that I am waiting to see about. ( 2 Tett, 2 Nbrewer )
So I think every body can have 1 off each or less!
I will start a list:

Hello NCDers. I took a very healthy root cutting from my colossal Fuggles plant a month or so ago, it had a pretty healthy shoot coming out of it which has just recommenced growing after a little shock from being separated from the mothership. I'd say if it goes in the ground now, this plant may even produce a bit this year. I will swap it for a decent bottle of something from our many fine craft offies! I'm posting here first out of love and patriotism for the north county! :D

We will be holding our next meetup at the Old Boro in Swords at 7pm Jan 14th and you are more than welcome.
You don't need to bring any beers/ciders but if you have some then a couple of bottles will do nicely.
Keep your eyes on the about to be written "Next Meeting Jan 14th" thread.

Can you see how much yeast is in the vial? You should be able to make a starter with it anyway.

Get thee to Lidl or Aldi or Tesco. Purchase as much apple juice as you want to (€1 a litre or less), get a bag of raisins, a few tea bags. When home search for Turbo Cider on this very forum and away you go!

Empty Coke bottles will be fine for Turbo Cider, the stuff is iss and usually drunk within a couple of months so no issues in gas permeation that you need to be worried about.

In the spirit of the NHC "pass it on when you outgrow it" way of thinking I have a mash tun looking for a few home.
Not sure exactly what capacity it it but its big enough to do 25L batches of whatever you can dream up. I've done brews 10%+ with it so its big enough.
Few bottles of your finest will do.
