Title: Top price for 2000ml pyrex erlenmeyer flask
Post by: Brewer Gerard on June 08, 2013, 10:43:20 PM
Saw a thread about this on beoir a while ago. I dont think they found any decent sources for getting one of these but at this price they're a steal! Took delivery of mine yesterday all done for under €22. Get one before  they realise  they're undercharging for postage.

Hi Gerard, and welcome to the forum! I have no concept of what is good value in these things but I'm pretty sure I paid less than €20 for two flasks 2L & 0.5L and a couple of bags of tubes! You should keep an eye here on the group buys! We get some great deal!

What part of the country are you based in? If you are central Dublin, capital brewers are always delighted to welcome anyone who knows his glassware! (The other clubs are welcoming too but I look after my own patch!)

(Saying that I don't think my flasks are made by Pyrex so that could easily be a factor)

Welcome Gerard! We paid €7.80 for 2000ml borosilicate (ie pyrex) lab grade conicals in a recent group buy. You need to be a full member to participate (only €10).

Well that's better value I suppose. It's just most sources for one of these quoted crazy prices on the net. I cant believe yis got em for that little! I'm in Kilkenny by the way
