Title: Need to restock
Post by: Vortex on July 13, 2008, 10:28:08

Due to various house moves a lot of my wine making kit has got damaged/broken and I now need to replace it before I can start brewing again.
Since Boots no longer stock anything, I need a decent supplier.
My most pressing concern is replacing the filter kit - the Boots one was really good - and getting a decent high alcohol tolerant yeast - again I used to use the boots one.
Apart from that I need a few consumables - bungs, air locks etc.

Can anybody recommend a decent brand/supplier?

The best I have come across is.
http://www.hamstead-brewing-centre.co.uk/catalog.htm

If they don't stock something you want they can get it in specially, reasonable prices, fast delivery & everything is very well packed I have ordered a lot of glass items from them over the years & never had a single breakage.

High alcohol wine yeast = Gervin GV26 used with gervin minavit nutrient.
Filter = Bueno Vino Minijet  is probably the best around but is not cheap so it takes a long time to pay for itself.
