Afraid I won't make it tomorrow. :(
Well after a shaky start we manage to pack 4 bales of pellets in about 2 hours with 5 people.
A few lessons were learned:
1. Pre made bags are much quicker.
2. If the min order is 500 gms its nbest to pack in 2 x 250 gms bags. Its actuall more efficient than making a 500 gm bag from the roll.
3. If you are using a roll then test the first seal before pouring in the pellets!! enogh to say that the club vacuum cleaner now emits a glorious Centennial aroma wherever it goes ;)
I will update the master google spread sheet with whats been done and what the analysis is.
I have Ronnans hops
A few photos are in order:
Sorry I wasn't around today to give a hand out. It's Patricia's birthday is off treating her today.
Chaps they look like the small width bags you can get much wider bags which are easier to stuff 500g into.
John: We started using 300 mm roll until we ran out. Then only had the bags that you see!
See LL#2!
