Hi,
I just bought a brew demon, for cider. Made my first batch 2 weeks ago, now I am ready to get some refills. A card on the inside of the box said to go to this forum and post and someone would tell me how to get a discount on refills.

Thanks
Tammy

Welcome to the Borg Tammy! I think the link Rick gave will work without the Wizard of Oz dance but if you want to post a video while doing so that would be appreciated. ;-)

Anyway I'm glad you found us please don't hesitate to ask questions so we can all help you with your brewing. :cheers:

Welcome to the forum
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
