Damn that is insane cheap, but I don't have a need for that size. Good price though.

What an aladins cave :o :o It's a house belonging to an elderly gentleman that has had to go into a nursing home and the family is clearing out the garage so the house can be rented out . He used to bottle his tomatoes, sauce, pickles and make his own wine. The estate agent is selling the stuff and he just wants to get rid of it. There's about 6 or 7x 20 litre carboys, a couple of dozen 5 litre bottles, numerous flagons, an old stoneware demijohn about 25 litres with screw in top and some wine making stuff.
The agent will separate the stuff , but doesn't want to stuff around just selling a bottle here and there.

I got 2x20 litre carboys with stoppers and airlocks and 5x5 litre jars for $50-00 :handgestures-thumbupleft: am I happy, knoath I am :-D :-D :-D

Flagons in perth.

Postby warramungas » Mon Oct 19, 2015 4:58 pm

I picked up some bewdy flagons off gumtree in Perth.
http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/belmont/ ... 1088646278
These are not mine nor do I know the gentleman outside this ad. Just thought you guys and gals might need some cheap bottles.
The bottles used to be used by his deceased father to collect port from the swan valley.
They need a clean and have some etching on the inside. I tried weak (glacial acetic) and strong (96% sulphuric) acids, sodium hydroxide, PPW (threw that in as an afterthought) and even concentrated aqueous ammonia (obviously not all at the same time) to remove it from the 4 worst bottles and it didn't shift it at all. I have to assume its not a salt or at least not one I've ever heard of that could exist in wine flagons. Just a leftover bit of character from 30 years of sitting under the house in a small home built wine cellar. Small oak barrel (100 liters?) under there too. Didn't ask about it as I thought 30 years may be a bit long for a barrel to sit with just dregs in it.
If anyone wants some cheap glass storage for their low wines or even aging on oak there was about 70 flagons left after I picked up 25. The guys mum passed and he's selling the house and reluctant to just throw them away. If I wasn't short of space I'd have got 50 of them.
Will need new caps as the plastic ones on them are falling apart.

Oh, and to other Perth citizens, there are two copper boilers for sale at 200 bucks each.
There's also a 300 liter one for 450 if your keen. Old water heaters I'd say.
Search copper tanks. They are around 120 and 130 liters each.
I'd get one to convert but I really want a stainless milk can boiler.

He only wants 200 for the boiler. If you need one I'd grab it. It's got almost $200 worth of elements, and all the work done. But like WT said, get a bubbler. LOVE the BUBBLERS :-D :-D :-D

6 kegs FULL OF WINE and 4inch boka!

Postby ekul » Fri Nov 13, 2015 8:53 pm

Was looking around for some more kegs and I found these two little beauties.

First up, 6 kegs that come full of wine. Thats 300L of wash plus kegs. Its too far away from me though. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/WEST-END-STAINLESS-BEER-or-WINE-KEGS-50-LITRES-x-6-plus-more-/201465793301?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255 I was hoping it was West End brisbane but sadly its not

And then I found this little beast 4inch reflux still with a boiler for $650 http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/macgregor/other-home-garden/4-reflux-still-and-50l-boiler/1093928638

If anyone has any cheap kegs in brisbane though hit me up
