Brewers Please Give Your Honest A Opinion

[petesbrew]

$65/25kg = $2.60/kg.
Buy a sack, buy a plastic container of some sort to store it in for future brews.
Too easy.
And as you've done in your OP, ask for opinions of your recipe here. The answers help.

Lol, I should add a note about spec malts... it's all good to get it cheap bulk, but you have to be sure you're going to use it.
I've still got 2kg left of Choc malt, a 6kg purchase that I bought a few years ago. I even gave 2 kilo's away.

I don't mind paying extra for a kilo purchase of a spec when I need it.

You'll probably need to get a few bits to assemble your STC-1000 from Jaycar etc, will add another 30$ or so.

I can and have walked into my LHBS and got 200g of grain cracked and vac packed for the same price as a ton. Thats why I do not buy in bulk anymore and have even retired my mill. Its all about giving your customers good service and your good customers will be loyal.

When I was told that I was paying to much for grain, hops and yeast on this topic, started to surf around and came across TWOC in Perth.
http://www.homebru.com.au

Joe White Export Pilsner 2.5kg $10.60 maybe $4.00 cheaper than BrewMart
Joe White Wheat Malt 1kg $5.00 $ 0.95 cheaper than BrewMart
Perle Hops 100g $8.00 $1.95 cheaper than BrewMart
Hallertau Hops100g $8.00 $1.95 cheaper than BrewMart
2007 Wyeast 125ml Activator Pack Pilsen Lager $14.95 (Still the same) at BrewMart

I wouldn't save much, would pay more in petrol just getting there and back, about 3/4 of hour drive to Bibra Lake from my house .
I will not go to West Brew nonthinking but problems with them in the past are were very rude.

I have always found Neil and his wife at BrewMart very helpful indeed and every time I go there it's chock a block with customers.

Maybe worth driving 3/4 of hour to Bibra Lake. But than again the money I would save I would be paying it petrol.

Go to gryphon, he's in bassendean and a regular on here, then get anything he doesn't have you can get from brewmart. they're both within 10 minutes of you, here's gryphon website Gryphon

Gryphons prices are good and he's got plenty of knowledge (I better be getting something free for this wrap Nev)

I'm not sure, but georgecopley are you ignorant or just retarted? You've been told about Gryphon a few times in this thread, but you choose to ignore it. Maybe look at South Africa and consider a drive there? Ignore all the good comments so far, about brew shops, recipe ideas, meeting experienced brewers, and pay $75 for another brew to chuck away.

In all seriousness. The questions have been answered and some very good, sound advice has been given out by other members here, if you choose not to follow it so be it.

A big part of posting in a forum, especially starting a thread of your own, is to read the replies in the thread. Particularly when they're helpful replies. Nev (Gryphon Brewing) posted post #16 and QldKev pointed it out to you 3 posts later.

Your eyes painted on?

 

[Bogan333]
