    Can suppliers?

    Thanks for the detailed reply Anna, is it the lack of washing bottles that makes you prefer canning as otherwise it seems a similar process? Also I am guessing you can't can from the fermenter? Yes at £700 for the machine, it is a bit of a luxury I guess.

    Can suppliers?

    How expensive is it to get into canning and how do you purge the headspace with co2?

    Evri.....

    I have avoided Evri/Hermes for years after poor experiences and almost always been exceptionally happy with DPD as being a far better service, but they have had the odd issue like a MM order in two big boxes and they deliver the one but not the other, the one with all the hops /liquid yeast...

    Secret Santa 2022

    I have been lucky enough to unpacked a few beers the other day, someone who has a canning machine by the look of it a pale lager and a dark strong ale, sounds interesting and a bottle of Leffe blonde which will be quite a contrast. Looking forward to them, thanks guys.
