I'll check, but I doubt they are at that price. The hops that Bill ordered are in the mid to upper teens.

No big deal. They'll be back next fall I'm sure.

Their hop prices are crazy variable. One variety is $12, another is $25. I don't get it.

I would like to know why pellets are cheaper than whole. I would think the extra processing would raise the price. I can see ordering a few #'s!

They seem to be only slightly more expensive. Maybe it's due to transportation and storage costs being cheaper for pellets. It's fine with me though since I'd rather work with pellets. Easier to measure and store and they are less messy.

They still have to do some processing on the whole leaf. They have to bale them. Still, it doesn't seem like it should be more expensive for whole. There's probably more work involved in packaging them by the pound compared to pellets. Buying in bales, I would guess that whole leaf would be cheaper.

OK, we need to set the pickup schedule. It's looking like the delivery is going to come in Thursday. Unfortunately, I had to have it shipped to my uncle's warehouse in Seabrook which makes the logistics a little tougher, but it should work out fairly OK. I'm planning on heading over to my buddy's place in Litchfield for game 1 of the Celtics-Lakers series, so assuming the stuff gets in Thursday I'll swing by Seabrook and pick up zym and bd's stuff and bring it over to Litchfield (hopefully you guys can make it Thursday.For the remainder of the stuff for me and drez, I'll have to stop back by the warehouse Friday (I don't think my minivan can handle the entire 1500 lbs of stuff at once), then do the pickup over the weekend.What do you guys think of that?Also, they hit us with another $15 charge for the driver to call ahead before he gets there (weird), so the total will be a few bucks more than the spread sheet I sent out last week.

What's my window of opportunity on Thursday? I can probably make it.

oh yeah - can you PM me the address again? I vaguely remember how to get to your friend's house but I just want to make sure I don't miss the turn to get onto his street.

I can do the pickup on Saturday but Sunday is out because I have to go to my sisters in NY. Let me know if Saturday works and what time is good for you.
