Hi There,

Just a quick question for Sydney brewers......

Where do you buy your brewing supplies from? Grain, hops, yeast etc......

Variety is the spice of life.

Cheers,
Jase

I get my bulk grain from Gerard Meares (Nothern Districts Brewing/Paddy's Brewery).
Specialty grain I get from ESB (Sydney) /Goliaths (Adelaide).
Yeast I get from The Country Brewer (Girraween).
Hops I get from NZ Hop Board/Goliaths and The Country Brewer.

Variety is the spice of life.

Beers,
Doc

I use Norther districts brewing supplies and Dave's home brew for most of my ingredients... Bunnings for most of my equipment. :)

Good Day
I buy my grains, hops, yeast and evrything else at ESB Peakhurst. If my wife can't find me she rings Mel, usually finds me there.
All the best, Barry

I am thinking of getting the Amber Ale first. Northern Districts website recommend the Burton ale yeast. Would this be suitable to make starters and then pitching into an Irish Red (website recommends Irish Ale yeast)? Or am I better off getting a British ale yeast for both?

Cheers,
Jase

I'd go WLP002 English Ale yeast. This is a great yeast I've used in many beers including Irish Reds, JS Australian Strong clone, Porters.
