I never really realized how fortunate I was to have what I have for brewing equipment until last night... Last night, I had a friend over, whom I recently found out was also a homebrewer. I started brewing in my 7 gallon brew kettle about 40 minutes before he got there, and it was just getting up to boiling.
When I first started brewing, I lived about 10 minutes from a restaurant supply store, so I picked up a lot of things from there, and have been quite pleased with my equipment since.
My equipment:
7 gallon commercial grade brew kettle (best investment)
wort chiller
Commecial grade 3 1/2" spoon
Grain bag (not the stocking-esque bag you get with the kits)
about 14 glass carboys ( several 6 1/2 gallon several 5 gallon, (2) 7 gallon, (1) 15 gallon)
plastic bottling bucket
Plenty of used growlers for starters
6 air locks
auto-siphen (he has a gravity based one)
commercial grade wide mouth funnel
I'm going over to his place later this week to help him brew, and being sure to bring over my brew kettle, wort chiller, auto-siphen and funnel. I couldn't imagine going back to the days of lesser equipment. I commend anyone who does!
