I can't answer your question.........been seven years for me.

I'm thinking small time, just a few times a year brewing something. I probably will not even mess with all grain again but mostly extract with maybe some hybrid.

*shrug*

I may need to keg though.... bottles are a pain

noob here to brewing, but i can shoot you my websites later on tonight. williams brewing is pretty cheap (esp shipping for me within CA). oakbarrel in berkeley has a nice selection and they ship as well i believe...

Did she leave work early or something?

There ya go!

As far as ingredients; It is my opinion that most of the online shops sell a lot of the same stuff and your cost savings will come from those who offer reasonable shipping.

This is an issue that bothers me in all types of catalog/internet purchases.......

Let's say an item is $8........it is a small item weighing less than a pound.

Many places, since they are "set up" with UPS, will charge you over $10 to ship this item. Of course, small items can be shipped effectively with the USPS for half that amount.

If a store doesn't offer the best value in shipping (or the options for me to choose the bast value), I don't do business there.
