I am wanting to brew my summer ale tomorrow. I want to use hops and yeast I ordered from Farmhouse last week. They shipped in a timely fashion. They shipped on the 14th. I ordered by priority mail. Estimated delivery was the 16th but it is still in transit. I can either start the grain bill I want to use tomorrow morning in hopes it will show up about time I start my boil, if not, use different hops and yeast. Or I can just wait and brew on Sunday. That way if it doesn't show up I can brew something different.

Waiting for stuff BLOWS... The PO must have a different definition for priority... Hope it ends well for you. Me, I wouldn't count on it arriving, as that's just my luck. You, roll the dice...

Priority Mail is supposed be 3 days max, but is not guaranteed. As far as shipping, many places show "shipped" in the evening yet the carrier company doesn't get the package until the next day, in this case 4/15, so today would be the "it should be here" day.
Unless of course one of the more disreputable Borg members intercepted it...

The USPS website shows they picked it up on 4/14
