worry wort Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Wheres the best place to buy stuff like dextrose, maltodextrin, L/DME etc. I don't have a HBS nearby and the local supermarkets only sell coopers packaged mix's at premium prices, so thought there may be an online place, or maybe not even a HBS where I can source these things from. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Dan Murphy's and Big W, who currently have 20% off most of the Coopers lines. Some of the on-line stores have free delivery offers from time to time too. I wonder what other industries use these ingredients and might be a source for buying them?

Graculus Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/20KG-Light-Dry-Malt-Extract-Home-brew-sugar-larger-ale-beer/381060341486?hash=item58b8f75eee:g:DeoAAOSwSidb7Xkr:rk:6:pf:0 I bought this once. Split it into 1kg zip lock bags. Wait until Coles have a special on food containers. Then put 1kg into food containers. Keeps well. I worked out even buying the food containers (at half price) I still saved money. It's a pain in *ss weighing it out though. All sell some at a slight profit to one of my work colleagues. He knows how much I pay and is happy with what I charge. I've bought three 20kg bags all up. The last two from my local health food store. He asks the Ebay price and undercuts it by $5 or so. Regarding the yeast. Do you all need 7 packets? I bought a pack of 04 yeast a year or so ago and I've just chucked it after the sixth brew. I thought I'd start afresh in the new year. Same with most of my yeasts. I have no idea what I'd do with 7 packets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
