Heidelburg home brew closing down

Postby Pogierob » Friday Jan 10, 2014 10:24 am

I know they are more expensive than most but they are closing their doors tomorrow and everything in store is 20% off.
Might be worth a look at their website to see if you can grab a bargain.

Those guys kill me. Even with 20% off, their second hand 6kg co2 bottle goes from $279 to $223. A brand new 6.8kg bottle from Cheeky Peak is $208. That's an extra 150 litres of co2 capacity for $15 less. I dunno how they get away with it.

Another example is their fermenter kit, $49.90 for a 30l fermenter with airlock/grommet/temp strip/tap etc. Discount homebrew warehouse have the exact same thing for $28.20.

I see they're relocating, and opening a new store, so someone's buying from 'em. Not me.

I went in today and got a bottle sanitizer (just like yours) for about $28. Which is the only reason I went there.

They are relocating to the existing branch in Richmond. Aka shutting down because we are over priced and shit.

I thought they were about 10% above average. Guess not.

I live 5 minutes drive away and still drive over to g&g. (Straight past Richmond)

Re Brewcraft/Heidelberg Home Brewing, my mum always said that if I had nothing nice to say, to not say anything.
