Melbourne grain bulk buy?

[DU99]

and yob can run the beer bulk buy section

 

[peekaboo_jones]

Replace the paint shop with an express pre-ordered mash centre. Set your grain bill and mash duration online.
Click & collect, boil at home.

That's the drive through section where Yob forklifts pallets of grain & 2L stainless kegs straight into your ute

As long as Yob wears a sweet little aprin too

 

[Spiesy]

I'm keen - base malts getting low

 

[DU99]

had to buy a bag of viking base malt $50

 

[Bridges]

I'm about half way through a viking pils. Very happy with it. Keen to try their ale malt.

 

[technobabble66]

Similar. Used a sack of the Viking pale ale and Munich. Both seemed very good. Hard to complain at $50 per sack!

 

[benju63]

I'd be keen for a few sacks

 

[Yob]

following with interest..

If I get an apron, Im in

 

[Mardoo]

Sydney's got one going. Brisbane's got one going. We're up next. I'm in for a few sacks. However can't lead it right now.

 

[GrumpyPaul]

However can't lead it right now.

Haven't got the heart for it?

 

[malt junkie]

Certainly up for some base and maybe a split of some darker malts

these are the wholesale/trade prices from homemakeit...

 

[peekaboo_jones]

I was going to order some base grains from Ellerslie in Mitcham.
If a few more are interested i'm potentially happy to run it.... maybe.

It's just down street from their warehouse.

Anyone keen on hops? they sell per 5kg bag and prices vary from about $30 to $60 per kg depending on hop variety.

 

[DU99]

belgian malt..pale works out about $39 a bag

 

[technobabble66]

Just checked: Chateau = Castle.
$39 per bag?! Wow. Manticle might move back to Melbourne if he sees this!
(I wonder if that is the definite price list or if it's their cost & a little margin might be added for a bulk buy...)
I don't really need bulk malt right now, but at those prices I'll be grabbing a few sacks.
Because, well, it's Belgian.
And cheap.

How did I not know about these Ellerslie guys, so close to home?
So you can just rock up and buy a bag?

 

[peekaboo_jones]

Yes you can.
They are open Mon-Fri. They supply Coopers with majority of their hops and also partake in design some of Coopers seasonal beers.

And Ellerslie are growers of many fresh hops grown in Australia (based in the high country vic & some in Tassie.

I am no way or means promoting these guys, i just like places close to home for convenience!
But have had good customer service so far!
