Hey Gentlemen ,Distillermen?,,
PJ Lily here.
I've got the 8.5 buckets from Mile-Hi in transit and not worried about them at all. However, the Turbo 48 I ordered from Brewhaus and shipped by them on the 8th has not yet arrived, though I'm expecting it any hour; it's heading to Northern California. My question is if the yeast will be damaged or dead this long in transit? Should I have 3 day shipped it?
Looking forward to having the 'Famous 48' in my possesion and able to follow the advice.
Much Thanks as always.
Yours,
PJ Lily

I've been brewing since 1977 and select my yeast from a very large and cold refrigerator at Beer Beer and more Beer here in Concord CA, never had a problem =20

Hey Rick and Carcass,=20 Thanks so much. First time mail order concern. As it happened, an hour after I wrote, it showed up! I'm going to start writing whenever I have a concern about anything in life - problems get solved quickly when writing to y'all.=20 Hey Carcass, I've been getting supplies at the Oak Barrel, just over the hill from you. I'm still in the early stages of my experience; the Turbo 48 is suggested often. Do you have any experience with it=3F And are you brewing AND distilling=3F=20 Thanks Rick! T'was never a problem, just didn't know.=20 And local to you Carcass ,1977! cool,=20 As always,=20 PJ Lily =20

Love the Oak Barrel! that use to be the only place you could buy supplies. Do you also brew=3F I just kegged a Celebration clone to enjoy this spring. I don't distill myself, but I have a friend that lives out on Methyl island ,Bethel Island, that does, nothing fancy like what I've seen here, he can make maybe a half gallon, he buys everything =66rom Brewhaus. it sucks because Beer, Beer, and more Beer is just around the corner, but there's just no comparison, the Brewhaus is really dialed in for distillation. My buddy did a batch and due to some bad math and poor planning used waaaaay to much sugar and had to use a few tubes of Wyeast beer yeast. It was dead as a doornail, nothing... the turbo 48 arrived 3 days later, Whoooosh! The word 'turbo' in 'turbo 48' is not an exaggeration, awesome stuff! Why didn't we just throw away $5.00 worth of sugar water and start fresh you ask=3F Stubborn I guess...it sure felt good to see the Turbo 48 kick that sugar waters *ss! and to anyone reading this, always buy twice as much yeast as you are going to use, because sure as sh*t you will want to start a batch some time at the last minute and the only thing stopping you is having no yeast. Keeping extra yeast on the shelf should be taught in the schools.

If Mr. Rick would be so kind as to pass you my e-mail address I'd like to hear about your equipment and what you've made so far. And it keep more of my sorry *ss stories out of the forums ,smile,. Great talking to you PJ Lily!
