Some of them look really interesting... HBC have become my number 1 place now for ordering ingredients and equipment, next order I might add a few different yeasts.

Would be great if anyone else has any feedback on these

@BeerCat will be all over that as our resident Kveik expert.

They look good.

They are also doing beer and water analysis now

Hi all,

Anyone got any idea what The HomeBrew Company charge for carriage if I'm only ordering acouple of yeasts?
Can't be the standard £6.95, surely?

Yup. It's standard, which is of course a ball ache if you only want one or two items like a pack of yeast. Guess you could email them to ask if they'll do P&P cheaper as your oly ordering a couple of light items

GEB sold these a few years ago so makes me wonder how old the yeast is.

As beercat say GEB were flogging fermentis yeast a while back. One of the concerns was buying yeast from an unkown yeast lab. I think they were polish IRC

However home brew online shop sell WL yeasts (not that their is many left to choose from)

Isn't that funny, They just refunded me saying they were out of stock!
Impulse ordered a Voss.
I'll look into Fermentum though.

It was just they were sold including ' free postage', seems it's the postage costs of one pack that was the usual hitch.
A long 15ml vial goes as a large letter, ie a quid. A pack of yeast costs half the price again to post.

True. You'd thnk some of the online HBS would be a bit more flexible with postage costs but quite a few arent

 

[BeerCat]

MM postage is £3 if its a small parcel, some of the others are as well.

Did anyone try any of these Irish yeasts. Seems hard to get hold of white labs ones so thinking of giving some of these a go.
