I recently purchased a can seamer and am excited to get canning my home brew.  I purchased it from Oktober Design (terrific company) but they are out of 19.2 oz cans.  That got me thinking that my only source for cans in a reasonable amount was Oktober.  Numerous searches have shown that all other suppliers require a pallet full (2,000+ at a time).  Other than getting the brew club together for a bulk order anybody know of any other places to buy cans in home brewer numbers?  I am willing to purchase number of \<500 at a time but even that seems not available. Cheers! ---

If you search “beer cans for homebrew” on Ebay, you’ll find some options. For example: [https://www.ebay.com/itm/16oz-Beer-Cans-For-Homebrew-Canners-40-cans-Aluminum-Fill-Your-Own-Recyclable/272840725911?hash=item3f86931597:g:slUAAOSwxrlarA9n:rk:2:pf:0](https://www.ebay.com/itm/16oz-Beer-Cans-For-Homebrew-Canners-40-cans-Aluminum-Fill-Your-Own-Recyclable/272840725911?hash=item3f86931597:g:slUAAOSwxrlarA9n:rk:2:pf:0) [https://www.ebay.com/itm/12oz-Beer-Cans-For-Homebrew-Canners-50-cans-Aluminum-Fill-Your-Own-Recyclable/272840718746?hash=item3f8692f99a:g:7CAAAOSwqClarA4~:rk:3:pf:0](https://www.ebay.com/itm/12oz-Beer-Cans-For-Homebrew-Canners-50-cans-Aluminum-Fill-Your-Own-Recyclable/272840718746?hash=item3f8692f99a:g:7CAAAOSwqClarA4~:rk:3:pf:0) [https://www.ebay.com/itm/19-2oz-Beer-Cans-Fillable-for-Home-brew-24-cans-NEW-Hard-to-find/132578153042?hash=item1ede461252:g:qeIAAOSw90xay58i:rk:9:pf:0](https://www.ebay.com/itm/19-2oz-Beer-Cans-Fillable-for-Home-brew-24-cans-NEW-Hard-to-find/132578153042?hash=item1ede461252:g:qeIAAOSw90xay58i:rk:9:pf:0) ---

Thanks, I saw those…  I’d really like to do 19.2 oz and the eBay site is crazy expensive ($1.50/can) and has a really bad rating.  (60% positive). I’ll keep looking but thanks for the heads up. ---

Haven’t found any suppliers so far.  My concern with home brew canning is that Oktober Design appears to be the only source for a home brewer to purchase cans. ---

I looked into it, got some tips from the Beerery and some other folks, here’s what I found. I ended up not going with it, it was a little too pricey for me at this point. Mossberg Beverage Co [http://www.mossbev.com/](http://www.mossbev.com/) Offers cans with labels Design club label with write on portions for brewer, stlye, & ABV/IBU? Oktober Canning $76 for 192 or 240 cans Enough for 4.8 5 gallon batches All cans are blank Offer “360 Deg” opening can option Mossberg Beverage Digitally applied labels to cans $0.37/can +$65/artwork 202 LOE ends $21.57 per sleeve of 580 lids Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry 920-682-8627 They also sell the crank operated canners.
