Downsizing, I am offering for sale my 10-gallon homebrew system. THE BIG STUFF IS LOCAL PICKUP ONLY: 13 gallon SS hot liquor tank with ball valve, sight tube and thermometer. $100 15 gallon SS brew kettle with ball valve and false bottom. $100.00 10 gallon igloo mash tun with ball valve...

SOLD.

It appears that shipping this unit would cost roughly $50 to anywhere in the CONUS, so I'm dropping the price to $450, packaged and delivered to your choice of carrier.

The dimensions for the box are 18x19x30 inches. Weight should be around 25 lbs.

I am away for the weekend so I can’t look at the shipping box for the dimensions. It’s the box that the Grainfather came in so the website may show the numbers. .

$500 plus shipping if needed

I'm offering for sale my 30L Grainfather. It's the 120V model with the blue tooth controller. I've brewed 5-6 batches with it so it's basically barely broken in. I'm letting it go because I prefer brewing 10-gallon batches. I'd prefer local pickup (28054) but I do have all the packaging and...

Sold.

$175 --- Heavy-duty 20 gallon stainless steel commercial grade stock pot converted to HLT/BK with 2-piece ball valve, dip tube, sight tube, thermometer and lid. SS hose barb shown in pictures is not included. 80 liter/quart (20 gallon), 19.7" dia. x 15.7", round, tri-ply heavy duty bottom...

It sounds as if you've done things more or less by the book. Often, you won't see a lot of air lock activity with a lager so I wouldn't be too concerned by the lack of activity when you did the D rest. I'd check gravity and if it's where you want, rack to kegs and lager. For the clearest...

I use this yeast strain exclusively for my saisons. I've been pitching at 80 and letting it rise on its own to 90, and holding it there til it finishes. It makes, IMHO, the best beer I've ever tasted. I must admit that I've had it stall and take 4+ weeks to finish but sometimes it pushes...

I use the speidel with the factory spigot. For me, the spigot is the best thing about this fermenter. I do not have problems with leaking. Mine is the 60L model. I don't think the trub has ever come above the spigot with any of my beers. I do get a little bit of yeast and trub when I...

I added about 2/3 bottle of red wine to a Belgian Dark Strong Ale that I brewed that was 'missing something.' Simply put the wine into the keg, sealed it up and turned on the gas. It definitely improved that particular beer. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again if circumstances call for it...

Bruhaha I just pm'd you with my recipe. You have on hand everything you need to brew a saison. Decide which hops you want for bittering (my standby is german magnum) and pick from your stash your favor aroma hops for finishing. I get most of my ingredients from Alt Bev; it's about 15...

You're right about the grain bill. Use what ever assortment of grains you like (or that you have on hand). I go simple on the grains, mostly pale with about 10-15% wheat and a handful of crystal thrown in for color. Mash low, add honey at flameout and chill to about 75F and pitch. For me...
