There is a health food shop near us which sells home brew/wine equipment. The owner has loads of tips and a trip there often takes over an hour! I like to know I'm supporting an independant trader.

Perhaps you might find something similar near to you in Yellow Pages.
Good luck, Effie

Sounds like the sort of stuff you could ask for on freecycle. There might be people who have got some that they are not using.

Freecycle is good and do you have a Brewmart near you?

try www.thebrewmart.com
its a shop called brewmart.we have 2 of them in sheffield.
i recommended a wine kit called the house of beaverdale.
they do reds and whites,there is cheaper kits out there but these guys make great kits.
dont know if you can get them else where but you get 30bottles (22.5litres) for about 35ish quid )t'
