That vac sealer is exactly the same as my Luvelo one, great unit
I've been using the Aldi bags for a while now too, no complaints about them

Agree. Storm comes from a mid-tier NZ brewery, Hopper Whitmam from Dundee, a NY state brewery owned by a regional Canadian brewery. Some of their European labels come from an obscure and independent French company.Killer Brew said:Incorrect. There are some big guys involved but the bulk of product is being made by second and third tier suppliers, many of whom have been squeezed by ranging decisions by the big 2. There is also a lot of imported product.
It used to be, but Woolies became the Fresh Food people and lost site of that initial focus.panzerd18 said:I thought Coles was meant to be more expensive and more upmarket than Woolworths?
I still like to give my money to the local hardware store, even though it's owned by Home hardware (or maybe another mob now).spog said:ON THE MONEY there Dicko, Bunnings resulting in a local h/ ware shop shutting .Harvey Norman coming here...how many local furniture and electrical shops will hurt from that.
Word is that BCF is on the cards. **** me if I'm not sick and tired of locals telling me of the gear they bought from Bunnings and in the next breath lamenting the demise of local businesses, makes me want to strangle the fuckwits.
Local business means the money stays local.
FFS. The population here is roughly 15,000 ,so the big boys have done their homework and want some $,that's how it goes. But if people would give a **** all would be well locally ? and...and...aargh it pisses me of........
Some day, at this rate the Big Green shed will end up getting my dollars.........
I've had one of these for awhile as well. I'm going to grab one of the ALDI ones as a back up, they work really well.sp0rk said:That vac sealer is exactly the same as my Luvelo one, great unit

Don't get too worried...I'm not even 30 yet and I was like a little kid on christmas day when I got my Luvelo sealer in the post a few weeks ago...housemates had a laugh as I ran to get my hops from the freezerNullnvoid said:Picked myself up a vacuum sealer last night because, well, I've been a good boy and deserve it
Can't wait to go through the freezer and reseal all my hops.
Yes, yes I lead a sad life when this is what I look forward too.
like it.Mr B said:Cant beat a vac sealer.
when I got mine had no end of fun vac sealing the kids toothbrushes and various toys
"Daaaaad, not this too....."
Oooh yeah
Cone hops, yes. Pellet hops, I doubt that the wire/mesh would be fine enough to contain them (if it's anything like most wok deep frying baskets)pcqypcqy said:https://www.aldi.com.au/en/special-buys/special-buys-wed-29-july/wednesday-detail-wk-31/ps/p/premium-wok-utensils/
Any opinions on how the stainless deep-fry basket would go with hops during the boil? Rig it up so that the wood handle stays clear of the wort (or even pull it apart entirely and get rid of the wood). Not sure how big the gaps are between the wires.
That's one of my favorite chilli sauces. Excellent on chicken dishes, hence the name.pat86 said:I don't want to get off topic, but this sounds like a winner.
