Wanted Bottling / Capping Equipment?

[Mark Hardy]

Good afternoon everybody. Was just putting it out there if anybody knows of anybody selling or having links to either new or second hand manual /semi automated equipment for sale (Within New Zealand), with the sole purpose of filling and capping of beer bottles??

Any links or suggestions welcomed

Thanks

Mark.

Have a look at these http://www.openshaw.co.nz/?Action=DirectoryItem&ID=53fb04696870... they are actually pretty good value as I've been doing some hunting for a bottling line myself and the labeller is actually good bang for buck as well,

Thanks for that Hamish......It's a interesting link. Did you purchase though these guys? or are you still looking? Do you own a label or intend to?

Cheers Mark.

Still Looking at labellers but will likely go with the labeller that one uses, there is a two head option for that labeller that's not a lot more expensive,

We haven't purchased a bottler yet as I thought I could find a better deal which I was mistaken the next best deal was $20k USD that you had to manually place the bottles into the take them out, I am also looking at building something myself with the help of a couple of engineer mates.

if your only doing small volumes there are a couple of manual labellers for a couple or three hundred US they are pretty labour intensive but if your only doing small batches its a cheap easy way to get going without burning money
