Legal Kegs In Perth

[Vlad the Pale Aler]

I have been there and asked the question.
They told me that they collect them on behalf of the importers and ship them back to Europe, but that big pile has been there for a long time.
They had a couple of odd ones for sale about 6 months ago, not SS but polypropolene (?) one still had beer in it.
It's down to legal ownership again.

There is an auctioneer on the corner of Kurnall road & Orong road in Welshpool that must have a couple of hundred, you'll see them on pellets as you come into Kurnall road on the left, might be worth checking out!

You're right Vlad they have been there for a long long time, might have to keep bugg'n em they might still want to sell off a couple, next time I go by I'll drop in and ask e'm again. Let you guys know how I go.
Hillbilly.

P.s. yes they are 50L kegs, sorry I don't know the auctioneers name Vlad might.

Cheers. :beer:

If you want to buy new kegs you need to get them from the maufacturer not the brewreries like Schaeffer kegs in Alexandria brand new unbranded kegs $175 -$200 depending how many you buy, that is landed in Australia plus freight from Sydney you can order them branded like say AHB. New and legal. they have second hand polyurethane as is for $80 plus GST-freight ready to go anyway just a thought

Cheers Monkale

So who's up for the bulk buy ??

No...seriously ?? h34r:

 

[monkale]

hey do a poll get the numbers Im keen

 

[mika]

Hahaha, maybe just a bit pricey for somthing I'm going to urn around and cut up anyway.
The Polyurethane ones could make a nice Mash Tun or HLT though ?

 

[roger mellie]

Thats not bad value - 200 for a 50L keg. I wonder how much for the 30L.

I must admit I never tried Schaeffer when i was looking for some.

Puts the new new 23 L stumpy keg being sold by Westbrew in an interesting light - $225 for something that appears to be of a much flimsier construction that the Corny!??.

Tested the waters at Kens and went all the way to checkout. Total for the 70Ltr Staino pot was $206.80 :huh:
Pot=$185, Normal Post=$3, GST on that=$18.80.

And that's inlcuding the lid
I think I may have been swayed to go Stainless

Postage for airfeight is only $10, so don't know where they're getting their postage costs from, but works for me.

I'm contemplating buying one as well. So did you buy it? Happy?

 

[mika]

Not yet. I've seen one of the Robinox in use and they appear to be a good thing. Just don't have the cash for it at the mo.

Hmm, was that the stainless or aluminium variety? Spending this amount of $$ on a pot that I've never seen is scary.

If you want to see some just go to the nearest (serious) hospitality store and check them out. Pretty much all of the standard stock pots are Robinox. I know the ali version has "Robinox" stamped on the bottom so I am assuming the stainless version does too. Check them out in the flesh, then buy them through Kens (unless you find somebody cheaper). :super:

Know what you mean. Was one of the stainless pots I saw in action. I think anyone's who's anyone is using a Robinox pot or a keg.
Send a PM to PistolPatch (he'll enjoy it...honest), he just bought one of the Robinox Stainless Pots and will be able to tell you first hand how good/bad/indifferent they are.

Spoke to the guys @ Allinace Auctioneers ( 135 Poole street, welshpool tel: 9358 6788 ) last week they told me the same story, they store them then send em back to Europe where they came from. But they said they would keep an eye out for us if they got some in that they could sell.
Hillbilly. :chug:

 

[Darren]

Guys remeber $135/ keg (plus freight from Melbourne) if you can get an order of 20.
PM me if you are interested.

cheers

It's raining kegs!

Check with Gibson and Patterson in Osborne Park for stock pot prices. I paid $114 for a 36L stainless Robinox.



They can get 92l Robinox for $245 + gst, but take a while to order.
