I have a source for calcium hydroxide.
This stuff is Eur45 for 500g.
I plan to cut this into smaller chunks.
Please put your name down if interested.

I hope there's a typo in the price!
You can get FG Calcium Hydroxide on ebay for about a tenth of that price.
Hmm... I was going for pharma grade, maybe that saw me coming.
Found it here..

not quite a tenth but good enough to quell my interest and that of a certain Dutch man living nearby!
If anyone interested I have approx 2 kegs of it free to a good home? In Portlaoise area. Same grade as used in breweries. Just send me a message if interested. I will not be splitting it into several batches i.e. First to request gets the whole batch & they can split it if they want.
Johrm would Walter White be of any help in your endeavours :P
Sorry 2kgs not 2 kegs :-[
You mean Will 'Walter White' Davis?
I think the goatee would suit him!
I put an order in for 500g, cost about EUR12.
@Ned, what were you using this for? What are breweries using it for?
I don't really need it now, but someone will want it.
John,
I use R.O. & use it for balancing water profile, use Bru'N'water to calculate profile. Often used in breweries for correcting PH.
