Well it looks like I need to sell all of the brewing gear unfortunately. I have listed some of the equipment available with some prices but everything is negotiable. Based in Upstate NY not far from Syracuse or PA.

Looking for anything else? I may have it. Willing to make some good deals and bundle equipment to get it into a good new home.
 
Unfortunately I just have the standard pumps that have the upgraded impellers that are still plastic, not the metal heads. I used the two built into the brew system and added an external connection to pump into the fermenters.
 
Breaks my heart to see this - your setup is what inspired my lust for brewing tech. If I was a richer man, I'd drive down to buy your gear.

Consider putting an ad on probrewer - I imagine your equipment would make a good pilot brewery for a commercial operation?
 
Thanks. The plan was to use this gear to transition from homebrewing to pro-brewing. It didn't work out for us and now its time to move forward. Unfortunately I'm going to have to take a break from brewing for the foreseeable future.
 
That is a great deal on the mill. Someone is going to get a heck of a deal.

Just a new motor that beefy will easily cost you $200; there's motorized options on here with cheap 2 roller mills (in one case a motorized setup without any mill at all for what you're asking) for sale for more than that and they don't come with the cabinet either. A 3 roller Monster 3D with hardened rollers, the motor and hopper and everything fully wired and installed into a cabinet for $400?!?

Someone in NY should jump on this. This is better than most home brew shop mills that I've seen.
Seriously this is a mill you buy and then leave in your will to someone because with the hardened rollers it should last forever.

I've had a few offers on pieces of the system. I'd like to sell everything in groups, the brew system, the fermentation system, the kegerator. When those sell I can let go of some of the other parts like CPBF and CO2 tanks. I'm willing to make some deals or help you retrofit or modify this system to work with parts you have, electric brewing etc.
 
The Malt Mill has been sold. Bean, a fellow Penn-Stater, came and picked it up this weekend. Thanks!

Yes I did and it is quite sexy.

for anyone else looking at this sale, the pictures to not do enough justice for the quality of craftsmanship and engineered planning that went into this build. For anyone who is looking to upgrade or simply switch the type of brewing they are doing this turn key setup will immediately improve the quality of your beer.
 
I just upgraded my kettles to a 1bbl system, working on electric build for control panel/ rims setup. Those fermenters are nice and shiny, I need pumps too. If you decide to part out drop me a line. I may be able to get some more cash built up.
 
Chest freezer $100? Is it still available? I am in Saratoga, but have family out west and I could make some arrangements
 
I will ask the disregarded question: is the chest freezer still available? If so, any chance to take additional pictures or measurements? I will be in the Syracuse area next weekend and might be able to haul some other things back (I might not; it depends what car is available). But just checking in to see if this might be possible.

thanks, Ken

I will take some measurements tonight and post them. The chest freezer is still available.
 
Sorry to hear you had to close up the business. If I wasn't on the other side of the country I'd be interested in some of your stuff for sure. Can you tell me the make & model of the chest freezer you used for your brewhemoth? I have a single hemoth and havent been satisfied with the IC for it, but am having a hard time finding a fridge that will fit it.

I had to find one that had a rear radiator and not individual shelves. I just went to my local appliance store and started measuring. This is a frigidaire standing freezer and not a refrigerator. I don't know the model number. When I pull them away from the wall I will take a look.
 
The All-Grain automated brew system is still available. Nearly everything else, including the fermentors, kegerators, and kegs have been sold. The brew system is being sold as a complete unit with extra parts, wiring diagrams and and instructions if needed.


Don't count me out of brewing just yet... It looks like I won't be in a position to brew with this sized system for a year or two and it can't make the move with me. I'm sure I'll be back at it before I know it.
 
Bump! I've sold a few more items but the brew system remains! looking for a good home for this guy I've spent countless hours on. Willing to make a deal!
