[johnrm]

Only 2 more weeks to the bagging line. Maybe ;-).

Unfortunately this buy will probably go the same way as the Hop Wish list

[Will_D]

+1 CH!

The way foreward is for the regions to order for themselves and a few guests nearest to them.

Then either get MCI to deliver it on a pallet or whatever OR one of the group drive down to pick it up!

[johnrm]

I'm not going to read the 5 pages to see who's st the helm, but I'll help by carving it up roughly by region.
I'm not sure locations of 2 bods on the list, the rest I have grouped as I either know where they are, or they have stated this.

You will need the following to progress this...
How many drops.
Where to drop.
Collection schedule.
Price per pallet drop.

Going to drop out of this list. Going on a bit long and got some malts.
I think local group buys is the way to go. We were talking about starting a list at our last NCB meet up. ( North county brewers  )

Probably going to do the same as I have just got myself a sack of grain.

[brenmurph]

k&L cork 74 (including VAT) euros pallet door to door to Dublin or kildare surely theres a demand for a pallet up dublin direction considering its nearly half price already and <2 euros a bag for delivery surely its do-able? It probable cost more than this for diesel on the alealex MCI run?

Ive just paid 34 euros for 25 KG bag and at the rate I go through grain it adding 30% to my brewing costs compared to the last MCI BUY. Ive no problem with The homebrew shops charging 34-50 euros a bag, after all they are in business and charge a profit, however they have a very decent mark up on it which makes it significantly more expensive that buying in bulk from MCI and distributing ourselves.

Im surprised that there isnt such demand for malt that we are not buying a GB every month by delivery for 74 euros..

what if we had a sealed (mouse and moisture free) grain store in Kildare where we stored a basic stock of MCI malts and topped up with a pallet as required. There must be dozens of ye passing my door every week; distribution in this scenario should be simple.
 

How many  25 kg bags on a pallet?

[johnrm]

The Hobbitses are dropping like flies now Precious 

It is a tricky one.
I'm amazed there are so few on here with vans.

@Parrot, you've just removed yourself from the list.

[Covey]

Is there any one in Galway that could hold a pallet until distributed?

Maybe HBW ,

I have a full 8*12 wooden shed and couldnt guarantee the malt being kept dry - the dampness on everything is shocking - to be fair my house is out in connemara & wouldnt be easy for onward distibution.

How many bags are we talking about for Galway?
