I have used this one for many things. They are quick and courteous. They ship UPS or USPS if the rate is cheaper. They accept credit card and other online payment methods. They are informative as to your order. You get a confirmation by email when it is recieved, when it is filled by warehouse people, when it is shipped, and also the UPS shipping confirmation and tracking service. I am happy with them. I have bought malted grains, regular grains, (they grind and crack for free) gypsum, acids, PH papers, enzymes, glass test equipment, fermenting buckets (from 5 to 50 gallon), corks, rubber stoppers, airlocks ..... ect ect they also have a large selection of downloadable brewing and fermenting software. much more there than I can list here in a few words. They have a "specials" section. You can search the site for what you need if you cant locate it thru their drop down menus... I just bought a refractometer from them. $114. What a cool instrument!

These people sell just about any fitting and pipe or hardware item that you can think of. If you type "copper fittings" or "copper pipe" in the "Find Products" box, you will find them. The prices are sky high. I have not bought anything from them. I use the site to plan out modifications as to what fittings are available. Then I locate a local supplier and buy it in copper.
