Where do you live kjg? I am in sydney and have bought it at Victoria's Basement (nope, that other one is Victoria's Secret) at Castle Hill. I think it was maybe $5-7 for a big cardboard container like the old Ajax container.kjg said:

Where I work Epsom salts $16 per 25 kilo bagBribie G said:The water treatment programs such as EZwater are a good starting point.
Also re large sacks of Epsom Salts, great for gardening but I'd guess a sack would keep a major commercial brewery going for many batches
The kilo box lasts forever, but is a good size for HB as opposed to paying up to $20 a kilo in small amounts from home brew suppliers.
To make even easier combine with a milk crate for stackable storage and transport.Feldon said:20L Collapsible Water Carrier - $3.99

Secondary fermenting in a collapsible bag or a no chill cube will not create a bomb. It is in fact a lot safer than fermenting in glass bottles.wynnum1 said:
twice the price of a chest freezer, can't see much application to home brewing. However next time they get in a cheap kitchen fridge with freezer I'll be in like Flynn.jeremy said:
The ones in the Aldi catalogue look the same as an ebay one I got from china. A 10mm Boston PVC tube fits nice and snugly over that one. I’ll bring a bit of tube to Aldi with me on Saturday and get a few if it fits. They make great co2 containers also.Bribie G said:
What size is the tap on your BFC one?Bribie G said:
As a camping fridge it looks alright for the price. My concern would be after sale service. Without starting a Waeco v Engel war, we have a Waeco which required a new main controller board under warranty - this took nearly a couple of months through our local service agent. I suspect Stirling could be even worse. The aldi one comes with a 2 year warranty but if you had a warranty claim you'd probably just want a refund. Other may have more experience with after sales service on the bigger aldi appliances like this.jeremy said:
Where do you have to take for warranty would probably trust Aldi over Big W where purchases a microwave oven that rusted out in under a year and they blamed us for improper use . Have not been back to Big W .earle said:
