I need to do this as well. I will try home hardware or any hydraulic or industrial supply. Where in Canada are you?

hello fellow quebecois

I had the luck of ordering everything from bargainfittings before they put a hold on their shipping to canada. They have great price and a lot to choose from (www.bargainfittings.com). Perhaps you could send him (Wayne) an email to see if he would be willing to send you some stuff. If not, you can always use package express (http://www.packageexpress.com/) they are quite expensive but trustworthy.

Let me know if you have any questions!

tried, no one including northern brewer will ship here. To use another shipping company means additional costs (ridiculous ones) which is why im looking for parts in Canada. So much for free trade. I might drive down, im like 20 mins from the border.


I'm close enough to just give up on all grain and just do Extracts. Getting parts is ridiculously impossible.

Via which shipping service? If it's UPS not gonna happen, they illegally add on brokerage fees to your items.

What does that mean

once you get your shipping confirmation, you call up UPS and tell them that you'll be taking care of the brokerage/custom fees. You arrange with them that they send you the proper documentation and alert you when your package arrives. You then go to the canadian customs office (10 mins from the UPS warehous in Lachine) and give them the data with a copy of your reciept. Once done, they'll charge you tax (law: also done with USPS/Canada Post) and give you confirmation. You then go to the UPS warehouse and theyll give you your package. Takes about 10 mins and you save nearly 100$
