About the Brand

It is no secret that Aussies love to indulge in a good pint. With this in mind, we’ve seen a rising popularity of home brewing practices here down under. If you too are interested in crafting your delicious brews, Australian Home Brewing is the ultimate store to shop from.

Founded back in 1968 in a garage in Hughesdale, Victoria, Australian Home Brewing comes from humble beginnings. It did not take long for the first shop to be open around the corner at 149 Poath Rd, Hughesdale. The rapid growth led to the change in location in early 2000. A new, larger warehouse at Eskay Rd Oakleigh South was purchased and this is where headquarters remains to this day. This provided the opportunity for expansion and diversification in the products and supplies.

Along with their physical facility, the website product variety was also growing. In 2008, they bought a retail store at 143 Church St Richmond to cater to inner Melbourne hipsters and brewers. At the same time, they’ve started selling more products online and placed their first items on the Australian eBay platform.

Fast forward to today, and Australian Home Brewing has evolved into one of Australia’s most famous destinations for high-quality brewing ingredients and equipment, ranging from bottle sanitizer and rinser, to hydrometers and bottles. Whether you’re an aspiring home brewer or a seasoned craft brewer, this shop has got you covered. Embark on your homebrewing journey with confidence.

Product Range

You’ll need some basic equipment to get started with homebrewing. Some of these include:

Sanitizers

First and foremost, before you begin the bottling process everything the beer touches should be sanitized. This also includes beer bottles. They should be cleaned with an efficient bottle sanitizer to kill the microbes that change the flavour of your beer. By doing this, you can be sure that your equipment is clear of dangerous bacteria and other impurities that could affect the brew’s flavour and quality.

Australian Home Brewing makes this step easier and quicker by offering, non-toxic, no-rinse sanitizer solutions. Not having to rinse the bottles saves you valuable time and makes things more convenient. All you have to do is dissolve the brewing sanitizer into the right amount of water. Next, rinse or soak the bottles with the solution.

For those who care about their environmental impact, it’s important to know that no-rinse sanitizers are environmentally friendly. After being combined with water they decompose into oxygen, water, and naturally occurring minerals. You can find these beer bottle cleaners in different packages. Sanitizer sachets, for instance, are portable enough to be chucked in a bag and minimise the amount of space they take up.

Ingredients

Apart from brewery cleaning equipment, at Australian Home Brewing you’ll also find a vast selection of brew ingredients. To make delicious ales you’ll need malt, hops, and yeast. Hops give a flavour and aroma to your beer and help keep it fresh for longer. Here you’ll find a diverse range of fresh beer hops and hop pellets from various suppliers that cover a huge range of key styles.

Also, this company can provide you with malt extract for almost any type of beer you can imagine. From pale lagers to heavy high ABV stouts, Australian Home Brewing carries a great range of malt extract for beer making in both liquid and dry form. Yeast is what converts the sugar to alcohol.

It’s safe to say that the correct yeast for beer can be the difference between a decent and an outstanding homebrew. Australian Home Brewing also takes pride in its selection of brewing yeasts for all your homemaking beer recipes. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing that only the finest pure yeast strains for each type of beer have been added to the collection.
