mybeerandwine.ie gone?

Sounds like either he's in over his head and needs a spare set of hands to look after post sale queries, or it might be just a case that his heart isn't in it anymore..

Yeah looks that way but it is a pity. They had a good selection and reasonable prices, just can't live with the bad side.

Any business heads here?
There's an opening for someone who does good customer service on hardware.

It'd be very difficult to do with the likes of Aliexpress around.

[auralabuse]

I avoid aliexpress myself, I find you can be stuffed with pure shite sometimes

Pretty much everything from Ali for a brewery build is good bar the stainless female QDs in my experience. Taps, bulkheads, elbows, threaded nipples, dial thermometers etc all fine. Ive built two 100L 3 vessel breweries now, my own one with Angel Homebrew & Homebrew Builder parts, and another for a work mate with all Ali express fittings. If I was doing my own again Id go with Ali fittings as they're the exact same imo & at third of the price. Id bet the HBS are all selling allibaba fittings & adding their margin for resale.

Lads was there any further news than this as I was going to get JG fittings from them?

[Leann ull]

What do you need other HB shops stock JG stuff now

[Sorcerers Apprentice]

I phoned them last month and they were still trading. The guy said I could drop out and collect the gear rather than wait for the post.

I need the 3/16 to 1/4 FFL female adapter, as well as 3/16 elbows and 3/8 to 3/16 reducers.  All my line is 3/16" although I do have some 3/8" which I will use for gas.   

As far as I can make out though only thehomebrewcompany and mybeerandwine do JG fittings though

ooh ebay

[cruiscinlan]

ooh ebay

Always my first port of call, however theres few enough sellers with JG fittings at the moment and they're about 40% dearer as priced higher and then with the sterling rate being what it is.

[Sorcerers Apprentice]

Give them a call they may still have some fittings in stock

Or just go to the Irish JG importer:

BTI Engineering Supplies
400 Greenogue Business Park
Rathcoole Dublin

01 401 0138

Only downside is that nearly all are supplied in bags of 10!
