sadly no.... just 2l.... but perfect for my poor oaking skills and need!

:D :D :D

Do you remember what you paid for them?

I'm using 5L HBS ones, and they're $16 each, with no cider lol.

Not required for the dunder pit mate ;-)

Threads in the other sections are better kept clean for ease of access to information :handgestures-thumbupleft:

G'day mate,

There is a Melbourne company now shipping Costco 25kg bags of sugar. I think they are about $22 (Costco charge $18) but I am not sure of the freight cost. They are called "Fairdinks".

Might be worth checking out :handgestures-thumbupleft:

id reckon freight to here would kill it .... that pile was 108kg... at an average of 90c/kg i think... so not too bad.... i buy that much at a time coz i hate going to town but that pile will last a few months...

nothing quite so satisfying as driving the 40km home with enough sugar to alter the handling of the ute!! :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:

Macwhisky. Through a rather temperamentle bubbler... I've been nice to her lately, Given her some love and polish, new sightglasses, fixed her leaky bits and she just won't behave. Bloody thing :angry-banghead:

50 of my last 100lt of macrum...

if i feel frisky i might run the last 50 today too... then a quick clean and rebuild to neutralizer mode and onto wbw for neutrals next week...

:happy-partydance: :happy-partydance:

Stripping a 3rd gen rum now. Might get a spirit run in tonight, hopefully :happy-partydance:

This stuff looooves to puke! :puke-huge:

heavy peat single malt...... :happy-partydance:
