The prices seem really good but the website is a bit poor and the contact details appear to be a residential address

I've used them a few times, mainly for sacks of grain. Last order was placed one day, and received the next, and an order I placed a couple of years ago got delayed a couple of days - no reason given. I still use them - as you say, good prices.
Cheers,
Chris

Always been good service and good quality when I've used them. I tend to use the malt miller now tho, since the malt is from a better supplier (WHS were selling Bairds and my efficiency went down alarmingly)
I often bought a 25kg sack at same time as hops to offset the delivery charges.

Cant fault the service, but i wasnt impressed with the 2 all grain kits i bought, one a TTL wasnt as nice as the graham wheeler TTL recipe. And both needed an extra 8 weeks in the keg before matured to my taste.
but the transaction went fine and the stuff was delivered to a neighbour when they arrived and i was out.

Perhaps i had old stock from (bad) luck of the draw??
I don't know. The stuff I've had from them has been good. Beer can be below par for all sorts of reasons. Fermentation is often key, I think. Yeast strain and condition, sanitation and temperature. Maybe they use approximations of the malts required sometimes if they are out of stock. I got a kg of caramalt from them once which seemed too dark. I think they maybe labelled it wrong. I have been very happy with them though, good quality, price and service.
I've used them 3 times so far, and can't see me using anyone else! They are great! Done 4 of the all grain kits and 3 have been great and tasted amazing, the last one I think I made a mistake somewhere....
Got 2 more kits in the garage waiting to go. Postage isn't even that high if you order 2 or more kits, or buddy up with some friends, last time we order 9 kits.
