Copper Kettle Homebrewing supplies

Post by Andy » Fri Sep 23, 2011 2:54 pm

Just got back from a visit to Copper Kettle Homebrew supplies complete with three sacks of malt. Keen prices and Ian's a lovely bloke, offers visitors a homebrew also - a rather nice SNPA clone in my case.

So it's a thumbs up from me! Worth a visit if you're in the East Midlands area.

Thats good to know, Andy - they probably aren't too far away for me.

I seem to remember when they first started that they were mainly mail order, but had some limited stock at a local garden centre for visitors; do they have more of a shop now?

Cheers

The shop is run from the garden centre and certainly had ingredient and equipment in stock. If visiting then I'd get in touch before hand to check that they've got whatever you were looking for. Their website allows you to put an order together and select a customer collect option from the garden centre so that's another option. You also get the cheeky beer option if you're there in person :)

Thanks Andy, sounds very good. Its probably going to be a winner for me then, not quite local but better than hanging around all day for couriers!

No probs.

Off down to the Rushden Historical Transport Society this afternoon for the Real Ale Festival / Steam Train / Jazz weekend. Marvellous :)

Thats a shame, we could have met up for a pint as I am in Rushden.

I get all my stuff from Ian at Copperkettle. In fact, he helped me get into AG before he started the business by showing me the process and helping make my equipment work better.

Absolutely top bloke who loves to brew and help others. As has been said, his prices are good too. Cant reccommend him enough =D> =D> =D>

Just finished my first AG brew with Copper Kettle ingredients. They seem to be very good prices and good service. I'll definitely be using them again, only 4 more AGs before my Pale Malt runs out...
