Hi Guys,
Thanks for starting the thread Manticle.
Yes things are up and running. Been a busy couple of weeks getting things set up and getting the stock in place, but that's now done. There was not much stock that came over from Mark. I do have the same Mill. I plan to keep pretty much the same wide range of Malt, hops and yeast. On the yeast, I now have the Saf yeasts that Mark had stopped having. The liquid yeasts have not yet arrived, but I expect them this week, (I'll have most of the range, but if you want anything special let me know).
For those brewers that have tried to access Brewbuilder but can't I will try to resolve that tonight and you should receive an e-mail. Once you get that try to get on. Just remember not to place orders on Mark's old Brewbuilder, as I don't have access to that.
I did send out an e-mail to Mark's old customers with a bit of a run down. Here's a summary.
I am located at Raymond Terrace, just north of Newcastle.
I will not have a shop front like Mark. I'll concentrate more on mail delivery where ever you may be. The couriers I'll use will be what gives the best value to the customers, at cost. I will be available on most Saturday mornings if you prefer to pick up your order and it's always good to say. A few brewers dropped in last weekend and it was good to talk brewing and meet some of the local brewers.
If you have already used Brewbuilder, all of your recipes will be there.
The gas refills will be taken over by someone else.
I don't plan to do kits. I will be mainly catering for All Grain, Partial, and extract.
There's probably heaps of other questions that people have that I haven't answered here. If you do feel free to message me here or through the Website.
