Make sure you use UPS and not USPS

Dr Scott

Why's that?

It could be a felony to ship through USPS since it's the gov. UPS is a private company and can't arrest you. The laws are so murky on this stuff it isn't even funny.

Oh and lie to the shipping people about what is in the box. I used Justin's name instead of The Brewing Network so as not to have to answer any questions.

When I shipped mine, they asked, so I told them the box contained collectable beer bottles. I suppose it also helps that I am in the same office quite often shipping collectable pottery and glassware so they know me pretty well (they think).

You could just say it's "Live Yeast Cultures". That way you don't have to lie.

I'm holding off because I haven't found a supplier of carafa III. Morebeer stopped carrying it. Any other ideas?

Northernbrewer carries carafa III.

Yep, so does Austin Home brew supply. I just had to wait until my friends and I had enough stuff to get a $60 order and the free shipping. Looks like I will be able to make some black beers this winter after all.
