A Kenmore Elite dishwasher, with super large stainless steel tub and door, built in food grinder, triple stage water filtration, and steam sanitizer feature. I can literally fit a 30 quart stock pot in there (with the top rack taken out, yep, another feature).
That'll be cool for cleaning and sanitizing bottles huh?
That's what $800 got my wife.
What did it get me?
The chance to completely dissassemble our old dishwasher.
From it I scaveneged;
wiring harness with connectors, a turbidity sensor, various line voltage switches, sensors, and servos, a 2 digit led display, a control board with various bits (I have no idea yet), a 1/12 HP 3000rpm electric pump motor, a couple other 120v pumps (water in and discharge), a squirrel cage vent fan (and motor), a float switch, rotating spray arms, an odd bit I might be able to use as a CIP wand (pics later), a 3x3 sheet of 316 stainless steel, and a 900 watt electric heating element.
Now, I just gotta figure out a (brewing) use for all this crap.
