Ok guys its cheaper for me to Try and talk my local HB shop to lower their prices. Sure I can set up my business again, I am tempted seeings how ONE STOP IN Wagga told all my old customers that "Craft Brewing Is a Waste of time"
Hense forth I no longer work there part time, so I guess it is back to the Drawing board.
So guys I have a detailed up to date price list from MALTCRAFT so you can see how much MARK UP you local HB shop is Charging you.
Whats going to kill a bulk order is the demograpghic of the delivery area, ie frieght will kill us.
So my answer is Form a Craft brewing club in your area. Use a successful club lllike Canberra Home Brew Club as a model.
Then order your supplies through a home brew shop, letting them know that if prices don stay competitive you will take your business elswhere.
This is what I told ONE STOP today. And he said "SO WHAT SEE YOU LATER"
So now we buy through BREW YOUR OWN CANBERRA.
