Good Chinese Supplier for Kegerator Equipment?

[Craig Farrand]

Hi Guys, I know there is a price to pay for the cheap equipment which can be sourced from China, but can anyone recommend a supplier they have used on AliExpress whom has given good results for communication and quality of equipment.

I'm looking to buy some Corny kegs, regulator and other gas and draft beer fittings.

Cheers

this guy was good, been a while since I traded aliexpress though I am looking to buy 6-8  9.5L corny kegs the postage is killing it, was perhaps going to go on holiday and then ship them back.

Dear peter smith

You have a new message from AliExpress supplier Gary Li.

Gary Li: Hi Peter,  Thanks for your order. I found you bought 8 x Male BSP quick disconnects, but most of our New Zealand customers request the NPT thread quick disconnects. Please advise.  Also, pelase confirm your registed contact information is correct.  I look forward to hearing from you.  Best regards,  Gary

I've ordered all my ali stuff from these guys as well - found them really good

Corny kegs - brewshop seems cheapest

Regulator - These were cheaper than anything on ali when I was looking and I like it better than my old one which was what most sellers on ali are selling - http://www.trademe.co.nz/home-living/lifestyle/home-brewing/brewing...

Taps and stuff - As peter said Gary Li has good stuff at pretty good price

[Peter Smith]

if you are in  no hurry and keep a cunning beady eye on trademe there are some bargains to be had regs / taps etc

Think there's still lots of Firestone kegs in Christchurch. I paid $80 plus freight 2 years ago. I can tell you all the seals you need to recondition

[Peter Smith]

any of the 1/2 size 9.5L ones?

[nofizznofoam]

i dont know.  mine are all 20.  apologies i missed that bit when reading earlier.

Kegs are killed by freight, brewshop in Hamilton usually have the cheapest (usually $100 for second hand reconditioned ). Fittings definitely Ali express. Also country trading store on trademe (Australian) have stuff from China (same stuff as aliexpress) but a bit cheaper - must buy in bulk. I went through exactly this process too setting up my system! Only thing I have replaced is the taps - splashed out on Perlick flow control after hassles with cheap Chinese taps. Good luck!
