since HBA was bought out I have been throwing my business around between northern brewer, morebeer, and austin homebrew. i came across https://www.midwestsupplies.com/ while looking for some equipment. anybody have experience with them as far as ingredient quality and customer service?

I'll admit that it has been a while since I've ordered from them, perhaps a couple years, but when I had there were no complaints. I'd say pretty much comparable to B3 and NB with the difference being the selection/inventory.

I have used Midwest on several occasions and been happy with their products and service. I have bought extract kits (when I was an extract brewer) bulk hops and various brewing equipment and all in all I have no complaints about MW. I see you are from Jersey and me here in NC so as for Customer service and being on the east coast I would say if you ordered today you should have your order to you by Thurs/Fri this week. The only thing I don't like is not being able to pay a set price for shipping $7-10 bucks. Otherwise I think they will serve you well too.

I pretty much only use Midwest Supplies and Brewmasters' Warehouse at this point. BMW, with the discount codes, is the best deal around. Midwest has a fantastic inventory and competitive prices. Both places make occasional mistakes with what they ship out (forgetting something, sending wrong size parts, etc), but I have never had a problem with either place correcting the mistakes.jrc

Ditto on Brewmasters' Warehouse. Between buying bulk pellets from hopsdirect and NikoBrew, who had Simcoe and Citra at $20 for a #, I almost always buy from BmW now.

I really like northern and midwest. I've always had excellent service from both and the ingredients they sent me were always top notch. Here's a few kits I got from them that I loved:https://www.midwestsupplies.com/amarillo-pale-ale.htmlhttps://www.midwestsupplies.com/simcoe-select-ipa.html

I think Midwest is one of the good ones. I have ordered from Austin, Williams, MoreBeer, Northern Brewer, Perfect Brewing, Midwest and a few of the smaller ones when they have something I need. Midwest is relatively quick (They're in St. Paul and I'm in Chicago which helps) and their selection seems pretty good. If I need something that one of my 2 local LHBS do not have, Midwest is one of my online suppliers. Cheers.

I could use this coupon code every time I place an order, or is it a one time deal?

Thanks for the feedback guys. Actually ended up ordering at BMW (before I saw he posted...lol). Anyway, hopefully I have found 2 more quality suppliers to add to my favorites.

I've had two great orders with BMW in the last couple weeks. Quick shipping and great prices!

I have a $50 gift cert to BMW burning a hole in my pocket right now, so I'll be placing an order there very soon. I've only ordered once from them late last year, but was very happy with the results.
