$400 firm for everything listed at the bottom of this post. Given the nature of the system, I'm looking for local Chicagoland buyers only please.
This system is a clone of the system as outlined in this thread:
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f170/110v-recirculating-ebiab-2-5-gallon-batches-341219/
My parts list is nearly identical to the one in the thread above.
I wasn't comfortable installing all of the hardware in the Auber control box so I settled on a FatMax toolbox instead. Plenty of room for any future changes to the layout, and this system is easily modified for 240v applications by switching out the plugs/outlets and upgrading the SSR and contactor wiring from 12G to 10G.
I've put 10 batches through this system and have made some excellent beer. I see an average of 79% efficiency when recirculating throughout the entire mash. I've had fun doing 2.5 gallons. I now have 3 kids and spending 5 hours to brew 2.5 gallons of beer is a bit of a tough sell. I will still be brewing going forward, though it's going to have to be at the 5 gallon batch size in order to make the time commitment worth while since it will be so infrequent.
Items Included:
Controller
Kettle: 30qt stainless with lid, 3-piece ball valve, sight glass (brewhardware), RTD sensor, and 1650W LWD element installed per Kal's tutorial.
Pump: greatbreweh http://greatbreweh.com/Beer_Pump.html
Accessories: silicone hoses, camlocks, RTD cable.
Sad to sell a system I spent a good amount of time building. A system that I'm quite proud of. I want it to find a good home.
