Please read: As you may be aware, the homebrewing marketplace is in a serious transition. Suppliers are coming and going, dropping products and prices are fluctuating. We have been putting off producing a printed catalog until we saw some stability - but we've been out of catalogs for about 5 months now and there's still no sign that things are settling down. The realities of the print medium are that you have to order huge quantities to get decent per-piece price - so that means the catalog has to be good for quite some time. And the other factor in all this is that e-commerce is becoming a way of life for most homebrewers - so the actual number of printed catalog requests we get has been constantly shrinking.
So for the time being we've come to the difficult decision to put off a printed catalog indefinitely. But we do realize that it's nice to have printed catalog - after all most folks can't browse the web in the bathroom. So we've put an electronic version of our catalog up on the website. We're going to keep it looking just like our printed catalog. So you can download it and print it on your own printer and it will look just like the real deal - maybe even better. You can also view it on screen while you're off-line and it's also searchable - an advantage over the printed version. It also allows us to keep it updated in a more timely fashion.

We also now have our catalog available on CD-ROM! This is an industry first! But it's more than just a catalog. The CD also contains many other goodies such as all our instruction sheets that go with our kits and most other instruction sheets for our other products. There's also some beer-related clipart and photos, a cool set of HopTech wallpaper for your desktop, a demo copy of Brewer's Calculator (for Windows), and more.
The CD is a hybrid-format CD that works in Windows, Macintosh or Linux/Unix environments.
