Getting Started

[Tom Harrison]

Been brewing extract brew for a while, but slowly making the transition over to the dark side.... of all grain brewing.

Bought 3,  50L kegs from Tui brew @ Mangatinoka. I bought a Crankinstien grain mill for a really good price and had a friend bring it back for me[if maybe a few of you guys need a mill i might be able to get other mates returning to NZ to bring them back] . Cost  me $149.00 US sent to my mates. Got 15m of 1/2 inch copper coil off Trade Me for $69 + $10

post for wort chiller from, brass123 is the Trade Me account. This guy has about 3 or 4 listings a month, need to save to favourites if you need it bad. I hope some of this info maybe helpful.

Hi Tom how easy is it to get kegs from Tui and what price and condition

[Tom Harrison]

Hi Tim

 Went to Mangatinoka Brewrey[Tui] and got three 50L kegs for $50+ gst. Went down and picked them up, They have a nice pilsner on tap that they dont sell any where else.

[Tom Harrison]

Sorry, $50+ gst each and you can pick through the kegs, pays to ring first and see how many they have at the time.

Where you located dude, I'm guessing you're pretty local, I'm at Woodville.

I live out in the back blocks, about  half an hour from Taihape

Hi Tom,

How many kegs did they have at the Tui shop when you were there??? I assume a few if you were able to get 3 by picking and choosing through them. Just wondering if it was worth a trip from Hastings. Cheers
