I don't have one.

There's one in Edinburgh but every time looked into making an online order to collection when I'm through there, I've actually found GEB to be cheaper after postage than the LHBS has been with no collection charge.

Yes I can see that now, maybe that fiver is the best that's available to them. I have no idea where County Antrim is, don't know if the Royal Mail works there or whether there's an equivalent. I'm still surprised that it costs so much to post a small jiffy bag, I'd have thought mail services would be better provided between Ireland and here.

Hi!
Here's my sixpennorth, not by way of complaint, simply an observation.
The Homebrew Company in Co. Laois recently shipped 28kg of grain to me in the UK for £6.95.
I would have thought that 144g would be much cheaper than £6.
However, that's much better than this website, which I decided to pass up.

I'm pretty sure HBC and GEB have the same pricing policy for postage in that the minimum postage cost is about �£6 but that is the cost right up to 30kg. Leyland Homebrew have the same policy too and they are based in mainland U.K. Basically the more you buy the cheaper it is.

For small amounts try malt miller. Hope that 'tone' is better
