I received my selection of Thomas Cooper Selection cans this morning.The expiry dates are from August to October 2015.I ordered them late Monday so good service.

+1 for unscented bleach

I have been using Coopers PET bottles for six years and never had leaks or any problems.

Lager and pilsener brewing time for me.15.1 degrees in the garage this morning.

I got my cans and BE2 10 days after ordering.Very well packed and no dents or other damage.Expiry date on cans September 2013.I will be buying a larger supply next time there is free delivery.

Thanks for the tip.I bought the Pilsener and Brew Enhancer 2 as it works out well with the free freight and 10% discount as a member.

Dropped in at the opening this morning (I wasn't thirsty,just happened to be in Stockland).Bought the TTL,Marzen and the 3 pack.Looking forward to trying them all.

[Another option I've been thinking about is maybe offering them to the regulars at a discounted price. I will be offering a mixed (6 or 8) pack discount to encourage trying various different types. The list of initial beers I'm working on currently has the Sunshine Coast Brewery range, some...

I would like to try some European Pilseners.I will come in after you start off with your Aussie and NZ crafts.

I suggest you try the calculator at http://www.brewcraft.com.au/wa.asp?idWebPa...p;idDetails=172 It includes .5% alcohol for the carbonation sugar. I also suggest that you make very small batches of 2-3 litres until you get the right flavour and bearable body.I agree Birells is not too bad...

My local Coles and Kmart stores sell them in the homebrew section.They come in the red and white Coopers box,15 to the box,and cost around $15.

Mine arrived unwrapped but in very good condition.I was hoping that the loose cards in it would have fallen out but they survived the trip.
