In 2016 we went "all-in" on Craft Brewing equipment and ingredients. Up until that point we had offered a small selection of beer kits, a couple of hops and one ale yeast. Fast forward to today and we have completely renovated our store. We have also quadrupled our hardware section, expanded into all fresh ingredients for beer making, and now include free, fast milling on all grain. There is no limit to the kind of beers that can be made from the ingredients we have at KJ. Everything is fresh, and competitively priced.
All of us who work at KJ are home brewers ourselves and love to answer any and all questions our customers come up with. Everything is available both in-store at our retail location in Guelph, and on our online shop.
Visit our spacious, open concept retail location in Guelph, ON to pick up your next batch of ingredients, or shop for new hardware to make your next brew-day that much more efficient.
Our hops and yeast are kept cool 24/7 in big fridges at the front of the shop. While our grains can be found in over 58 separate bins just beneath our 40' chalkboard.
Since the summer of 2017 we have operated a CO2 exchange and fill program here at KJ Urban Winery. Until then there were few options for getting a CO2 tank filled, our goal is to make the process as easy and affordable as possible.
Check out our handy, condensed list of the grains, hops, yeast and extras that we offer.
All of these items are available in-store and online.
Every month we post a new recipe specially crafted for that month. During that month we discount that recipe by up to 20%!
All grains sold by the pound can be milled for free. Just let us know in the order comments, or in person and we'll mill it.
We recently upgraded our mill to Blichmann's fancy new model. This one mills quickly, and gives a great even grind. Even better, we can customize the level of grind that the machine delivers. Our efficiency increased by 8% once we moved over to this mill. Doing BIAB? Let us know and we'll grind it finer. Having issues with stuck mashes? We can make a coarser grind on the grain.
It mills quickly, and with very consistent results. A 55LB bag of grain can be milled in under 6 minutes!

We take great pride in delivering the freshest, best kept hops possible to our customers. All hops purchased on our online shop are packaged in high quality vacuum sealed bags stored permanently at 0°C. You can be sure that the hops you buy will be fresh and deliver the exact attributes you are looking for! The current crop year for each variety is listed in the description, though the photos may be from previous years.
Our grains are sourced from a wide range of high end reputable maltsters. These companies include Weyermann, OiO, Simpsons, Chateau, Castle, Patagonia, and Crisp. These same grains are used by some of the best craft breweries in Canada (including our friends at Royal City!). Our grains are always fresh and stored in ideal conditions. We package them in resealable bags, and are more than happy to mill them (for free!) upon request.
Buy them by the pound, or save money and buy 55lb bags!
