I'm entering for the first time.
I wasn't really sure what category to enter my 'Amber' ale in (as I didn't brew it to a style) so I put it into American Amber Ale and Australian Dark Ale. See what happens. Also entering a APA and Baltic Porter. Keen to hear the feedback, should be...
The customs site specifically says "Duty, GST and other taxes are calculated and payable when you make an import declaration for goods that have a value above A$1000", as in the value of the goods, not including freight. And if it was above GST is only paid on the value of the goods. There are...
Because SS is more bling bling.... :D :D
Less chance of it reacting with the wort, more sanitary, less chance of oxidation etc
However plenty of people use copper in their HERMS in fact it is probably more popular than SS due to cost. We were just lucky Nev managed to make one at a good...
I've already got your 71L just not the smaller one.
The sizes they have are:
6, 12, 17, 21, 25, 36, 71, 98, 115, 130, 170 and bigger!
Only prices I have are:
36L = $38
70L = $65
98L = $78

Sorry guys I've already placed the order and put a deposit down, plus we are quite close to the $1000 so won't be taking any more orders.
As I said earlier, I am happy to pass on the suppliers details and others we can start another BB for a second round order.
Cheers

Here is the link to the photos from this supplier. As you can see it's exactly the same product at a slightly better price (although freight is slightly higher).
OK, so we now have:
philski - 98L x 2
hyjak71 - 98L x 2
Gout - 98L x 1, 71L x 1
Danwood - 98L x 1
Golani51 - 71L x 1

We may be in luck. The original supplier I got a quote from has come back with freight of $400 to Melbourne port. Unit prices are lower so total cost of 9x98l and 3x71l is $897, that includes everyone's order.
I am waiting on photos from this supplier.
I'm just worried about paperwork, extra costs etc. but you are right it does still work out cheap even if it was another 20%.
I don't really know enough about the import process to comment.
I'm happy to pass on the suppliers details for a second round if that's what it comes to.
Synchronized posting!
I thought we had it worked out but now we are just over the $1000....
Wally - As you originally posted before Golani51 you have priority... However, if you order 2 x 98L (and Golani51 doesn't get in on the order) then we are just over the $1000 mark, in fact it would be...
OK. I think we are about at the limit.
So we have a total of:
7 x 98L = 665
3 x 71L = 249.60
= 914.6 so we are under $1000.
I will proceed to get a final quote for the above. I have been informed the unit prices will remain the same and shipping will likely be the same or just a little...
Looking at the photos it is exactly the same product as I have. I will post links to the page and make sure everyone is happy before proceeding.
Cheers

OK all, I have a new quote from another supplier.
Slightly higher unit prices, but shipping looks quite cheap. Note they said shipping is not confirmed yet so this isn't an exact cost.

Hello Philip,
I have enquired with our forwarder, they say it's unconvenient for them to give DDP price...
Just waiting on the responses from the suppliers. At this stage it will be kept under $1000 and on a first come first serve basis. I will post once I have the quotes.
Cheers

Here are some pics of the 2 pots I have which should be the same as the ones I'm looking at
New 98L pot
Mama and papa pots
Inside one of the pots
I've used these pots with Rambo and full blast (with a wind shield) and no worries.
Once I have some numbers from the suppliers I will post...
