Buying bulk malt extract about to get easier?

[EoinMag]

Thing is Graham I was quoted 66 euros for 25kg of the "bakery" stuff.....That's 60 quid, or 2.40 a kg, as against 7.69 a kg at hop and grape prices, just to take one supplier.

I think they are being cagey so as to maintain this rip-off situation. (irregardless of quality)

Actually I was referring to the industrial foodstuffs supplier that Chris mentioned. Now that I know that it is the same stuff, an accommodating bakery is a good source.

Unless Muntons find out, then they'll pull the plug, so don't mention that you want to homebrew with it or they'll be ordered not to supply you. They called it vertical marketing or some such market distorting rubbish.

hi,

The 23kg malt extract, will be a bag inside a muntons standard box.
I have been told the price is basicly the same per kg as the 15kg which makes the 23kg around
the £80.50 mark ( around £3.50 per kg )
I have also told them i dont think its a good idea, due to the price, bulk buy should be cheaper per kg
I have a nice PDF file of the new malt box and how to dispense it, but i dont know how to post it

Thats a cracking price! Almost enough to make an all-grain brewer turn to extract -If only I hadn't bought a new sack of palt malt I would be straight on with an order...
