I can't wait to go and have a sticky beak and meet the Aussie Grandmaster Mac and his famous wares. Was planning on going this week before I was struck down with an ear infection and couldn't drive, lest I crash the car on the way. :crying-blue:

Once I find a decent glass door fridge for a reasonable price we will be stocking specialty yeasts, at the moment we're stocking Lowans and Allied Mills baking yeasts.

Probably not worth selling these online though as postage would make them expensive.
