Only two people interested so far. I’d like to get a couple more before starting the box. Feel free to ask questions.

If I can join towards the end I wouldn’t mind another round

What constitutes significant steepster presence?

Dr Jim said

I look for number of tasting notes, people following/followed. You have enough notes, but are low on following. On the other hand, I can give you credit for the instagram link. Frankly, we could use a few more people for the box (6-10 is ideal).

brutusK said

I’m in, so that should bring us up to 4. Thanks!

Dr Jim said

What state are you located in?

brutusK said

North Carolina. Sorry totally forgot to include that info

Dr Jim said

Thanks. Please follow me.
