Now that's really ghetto! I hope you cleaned them well first.
Gheto chilling system... :rockin:
... I'm currently in the process of doing up 13 more for local people in my communitty out of 304 stainless rollers for cheap....
Epitomizes my sig...everything works if ya let it.
Hahaaa! Took me a moment to notice that cornie there. Apparantly we think alike. (I stopped doing this after some disasters).

Some of these dont seem so ghetto to me! My keg didnt fit on my burner so i grabbed two posts out of my fence...
fall-line is that a trashcan as a mash tun or brew kettle??
Unless the setup has been assembled from found objects.I think that stainless valves, thermometers and sight glasses in kettles or keggles disqualifies a rig as ghetto no matter what the rest of the set-up looks like. Any electric pumps are disqualifies as well, IMO.
Of course, I am not an expert in all things ghetto.
You know what they say, "One man's ghetto is another's dream set up".

None of these are ghetto! I'm going to have to take pictures of my setup next brewday. It pretty much consists of a 4 quart stockpot which I mash in, colander, pour the grain in a mixing bowl, sparge, colander, partial boil in the same stock pot. I am adding a 2 gallon mash tun this weekend (1 gallon brewer).
Plus I use a 5 liter vinegar jug fermenter with a balloon airlock. Anyone can top me?
You got me at ballon airlock.
I think it would be easier to list the actual brewing equipment, rather the other random objects I use for brewing.
3 piece airlocks 9
Variously sized drilled stoppers 12
Dried yeast, two types
Hydrometers 2, one normal brewing hydrometer and one distillers hydrometer I ordered by mistake.
6.5 gallon bottling bucket 1, just barely got this.
Refractometer 1, just got this too.
Pectin enzyme 2oz
Bentonite 1lb
I have lots of other things that get drafted when I brew, but nothing else that's actually made for it.
I have more then one turtle thank you. I actually got them for making soup, so they don't count.You forgot to mention: one turtle, a few hamster and a croc
