Beer Gas – Update

We really want to help brewers and home bar users but beer gas has become a particular headache and we are finding ourselves less and less able to help.

We had a supply agreement with Hobbybrew which at least gave us access to gas, but at a price that made me feel like I was ripping customers off unfortunately. I wasn’t, our margins on the gas were pretty thin, but asking for £107 for a cylinder of gas just didn’t seem right. Our minimum purchase for a supply was over £2000 as well so a lot of money to be tied up in a slow moving product; a slow moving product that returned thin margins.

We’ve dropped the product sadly, but will of course honour any cylinder deposits that are owed.
