New Stainless Supplier starting out across the water, those hop spiders look interesting
http://www.bridgewaterbrewing.co.uk/
On Jims they promised a 10% discount for your first order, simply use the code EB10 on checkout.

They're even cheaper than AliExpress!

Thanks John, Nice site that and very good prices!
Remember: The Nationals are just round the corner - time to get brewing

Has anyone any experience with the pumps they are selling?

Leann ull

They are a new entrant to the market and pumps are Chinese, some initial positive results coming from those 12/24v supplied by Angelbrew and Homebrewbuilder

i'm not sure if i can post on here as myself - apologies if im treading on toes and pleases remove if i am

pumps are our biggest seller - and they are the high spec H version.

if its ok with the club im happy to send one over FOC for an unbiased review

I've always been curious of those pumps, the price compared to chugger pumps is very enticing.

Bridgewaterbrewing

if i send one over perhaps it could be circulated ? no pun intended

chuggers are good but expensive in the uk

dcalnan

That sounds good, I don't have my setup ready for pumps yet but I'm sure there are others on the forum that would love to test them out.

Leann ull

Guys lets start an interested parties and swap every 2-3 weeks.
I can compare against a couple of Chuggers in series ;)
Then those that test can go into a draw
I'd like to test but no interest in pump

I have ordered a hop spider from them, but I don't know if it's shipped yet. If it hasn't, maybe they could lump it in with it and send them together?

Just a thought if it helps at all...

How spider arrived. Looks to be a decent build, even fits over the edge of my keggle pretty well...

I used to use a bar across the diameter, keg spears work well!

You mean to hold a hop bag off the spear? Was using my own up-to now but the 250g hop monsters weren't coming out great as there wasn't enough room. Also the bag is an utter pita to clean after a brew.
Edit: ah you mean hanging the spider off a bar across the diameter. That's a good idea. I can rig up a simple one if needed.
