This guy has a LOT of equipment up for sale (not me).

Pre made keggles, burner, Nitro, o2, bulk grain, beergun etc. Plus a 10 & 3 Gal corny!

Hombrew Beer Equipment

Although I'm tempted to drive up to Lake Stevens, I thought I'd share.

That's his surplus! I'd love to see the stuff he's choosing to keep!

Holy Jesus.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say he's not just a homebrewer, but probably a LHBS owner as well. Just a theory.

It's a little farther from Taxachusetts...

A cold plate for 25 and a full jockey box for 100!!!!!!! I wonder if he would ship.

ChshreCat · Jul 22, 2009

I drive right past there everyday going to and from work. I might have to check this out.

HopTrap · Jul 22, 2009

I emailed to see if he would ship. There are some goodies I could use here in VA. I will fill you in when I hear back.

ChshreCat · Jul 22, 2009

If he won't, I might be able to ship... with a small handling charge that is.

HopTrap · Jul 23, 2009

He said that everything is gone except one 6.5 gallon carboy. That was Fast!

philrose · Jul 23, 2009

holy cow! thats super fast! It seemed like he had multiples too. I wonder if one of the HBS's bought him out?

I went by on Friday after work and picked up a converted keg brew kettle ($90) and two more corny kegs ($29 ea w/ a new set of o-rings included). It seemed that he had a ton more equipment to sell still. I just wish I would have seen the ad a little earlier. He had some really nice stuff in his original ad.
Jim is retired and has a little business selling equipment that he has picked up from people getting out of brewing. He also sells grains and other brewing supplies. He has great prices on grains and hops. All grains are .85c/lbs, less if you buy bulk, and hops are $2/oz..
He is a great guy and he even invited me in to sample the 7 or so beers he had on tap. I will be getting my supplies from him from now on. Starting with the great Stout he had on tap.
Later,
Brad

Welcome to the forum brad, glad HBT was able to hook you up with your new brew-monger

eschatz · Jul 26, 2009

That jockey box is a STEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

doggage · Jul 26, 2009

I emailed and he offered some great stuff on the first day it was listed on here. Unfortunately, with shipping everything came out to nearly as much as it would have been ordering from my LHBS. Thanks for the post though, philrose. I was tempted with the wort pump and cold plate!

humann_brewing · Jul 29, 2009

man that sucks, I could have had a friend pick something up and get it in a few months.

Does he have a shop or just out of his home?
How can he be contacted, web, phone, just drop by and see if he's there?
What kind of grains does he stock? Is it just sort of the base malts?
Does he have a way to mill them, or does he only sell unmilled grains?

My G/F lives up in Lake Stevens so I get up that way from time to time and would love to snag some grains if it is conveinant.

Hey Zen_Brew! I ended up buying a couple of things from Jim a few weeks ago. He's an incredibly nice guy, and brews tasty beer! Its insane how much gear he has to brew with that he WASN'T selling! I'll PM you his email.
