If you use the supplier above please be aware that their payment merchant ( page that you get sent to enter the card details and pay) offers the option to pay in sterling, infact it preticked the option, do not do this as you will get a rip off exchange rate. If you have one use a Starling or...

I went with Gerryjo's supplier in the end, https://www.polsinelli.it/en/green-crown-cap-%E2%8C%8029-200-pcs--P1389.htm?gclid=Cj0KCQjwqfz6BRD8ARIsAIXQCf2C_gjMnbVVQ4KwcrM3ELIeIlZyvJfunT4s5Y-91yZGPynHAP7FTJMaAuQZEALw_wcB Using my Starling card and paying in Euros it ended up costing me £27.33 for...

Thanks Barley, that's also a big improvement. It's leffe bottles that I use too. Mark

Thanks massive improvement, that comes out at 27euro / £25 which is certainly better than £46. If no-one come up with a better price that's where I'll be going. Thanks again, Mark

I can get 1000 26mm crown caps delivered for £16, yet the cheapest I can find for 1000 29mm crown caps is £46 delivered, does anyone know of a cheaper source? This feels a bit expensive for what is essentially the same product. Mark

Hi Kelper, That's a shame, mind you I've not seen 2 kg delivered cheaper at any of the normal sources . Mark

Hi Kelper, Half way down this page is a scroll that shows stores that stock this product, hopefully it will show a store close to you. https://www.astonishcleaners.co.uk/the-astonish-range/product-category/laundry-fabric/oxy-active-fabric-stain-remover/ Mark

Or use sodium percarbonate which can be almost as cheap as water ! Mark

Thanks, that is helpful and clears that up. Mark

These are the instructions that came with the sodium percarbonate in my start up kit. " Brew Safe Sanitiser Instructions Brew Safe Cleaner Sanitiser has a variety of uses including for home brew equipment and bottles, and requires no rinsing after draining. 25g makes up to 5 litres of cleaning...

I've just returned from Aldi, where I found they have started selling their own brand yeast extract at around £1 cheaper than Marmite, I haven't tried it yet, but in the past I've found other own brand yeast extract such as Sainsbury's to be fine. Mark

As the astonish is 30% the same as the previously used home brew stuff I've been using the same dilution rate which is 25 gram to 5 litres of warm to hot water. The Wilko stuff which says " more than 30%" (but not how much more) says 4 teaspoons (16grams) to 5 litres of water, but I'm happy...

The sodium percarbonate sold in Wilko and other places for home brew use is usually 30 % so you won't need to use any extra. Mark

No worries, you can always use it for the laundry if you don't like ! For £3 you can't loose in my opinion . Let us know what you think of it . Mark

No, like the sodium percarbonate I got from the home brew shop it doesn't really smell of anything. (Either that or my visit to Caerphilly yesterday was more dangerous than I thought !) Mark

Hi Guys, I've started using this astonish cleaner which the manufacturer says is suitable / safe, today I got a 2 kg tub at B&M stores for £2.99 which I thought was a bit of a bargain ! Mark

Thanks for the input guys, as the pubs have been shut my usual supply of bottles cut off. I bought these to tide me over, so I'll use them as such but glass does seem a lot easier ! Mark

Hi All, I recently bought 48 500ml pet bottles and have put them into use, normally with glass bottles I rinse then put though the dish washer after use but I have read you shouldn't put pet bottles in the dishwasher, so far I have just rinsed them out after pouring into a glass , do I need to...

Welcome to the forum, There is a specialist home brew shop in Barry, I've not used it but thought the information might be useful to you. http://www.homebrewcentre.com/ Mark
