I would like to congratulate the SCIBC on getting this up and running there are 20 threads in the group buying forum (set up in 2015) i don't remember any other group getting to this stage.

Just shows the power of collaboration and team work!I would like to congratulate the SCIBC on getting this up and running there are 20 threads in the group buying forum (set up in 2015) i don't remember any other group getting to this stage.
If they bothered to reply that might be an option. OB contacted around 8 and only two even responded.
This isn't a charity campaign to save the breweries, it's about saving money for the group.
Some of whom I'm sure have been personally affected financially too.
Charity begins at home.
If I have cash to spare, I willingly spend it locally at all manner of small businesses. If I don't then I go to Aldi.
Thanks again OB.Everyone has now collected their ingredients
Great to actually meet you all
Owing to some people paying the VAT inclusive price and others not taking change when paying by cash are left with a credit to the tune of £14.21 as follows
Chopps £3.48
Georgie £2.97
Cheshire Cat £1.40
Falco £2.76
NPi £3.59
As you know we are planning another buy mid February time, so we can begin then with these credits
Best Wishes all

Welcome Shroppie sounds like your not a Cheshire man and welcome.Hi Guys,
Shroppie from Middlewich here,
I brew lagers mostly so could use a few sacks of lager malt and I can pick up
the Munich malt to finish off that sack. (not done one for a while).
It looks as though we are not far apart?
Cheers

Homebrew discount stores...Hi Shroppie - indeed we are not too far away
I will log your interest and pm you in January
Our current plan is to actually buy last week in January time
Munton's have agreed to supply us direct and their prices do reflect a price increase - due according to them to a bad harvest this year
Our plan is to confirm prices with them and Staffordshire Brewery early in January to see where we can find the best deal. We are currently looking at more than 1.5 tonnes of malt and we would expect Muntons to sharpen their pencil a bit
If we go with Muntons we would intend the still buy the other items i.e. yeast, caps and kegs from SB
So I will PM everyone mid January time with confirmed prices and ask for a definite commitment at that point so we can go ahead and place an order end January
Muntons would deliver to me here in Sandbach whilst we would probably have to collect from SB
So I am hoping that we can arrange for a few of us to be around on delivery/collection day to sort it all out
Hopefully when all this Covid stuff is over we could meet up for a pint - with the Sandbach gang
