    Check out all this stuff I aquired:

    The kegerator (currently with one tap), the stand, MLT, HLT, keggle, kegs:

    Three carboys, looks like two sixes and a five:

    Grain crusher:

    Smaller kettles (I don't need these):

    [​IMG]

    Keggle with fittings, thermometer, and chiller:

    [​IMG]

    Enough room for SIX taps (I am looking to just go with four total):

    [​IMG]


    All for how much you ask? Are you ready? You sure?


    100 bucks.


    All fittings, tubing, hardware was included, as well as a CO2 tank and regulator. Plus extra hydrometers, caps, auto-siphon, air locks, EVERYTHING. A co-worker's husband got out of brewing and knew that I would put the stuff to good use.

    I plan on repainting and relocating the taps on the fridge. Now I just have to figure out how to use everything, because I currently do 2.5 all grain batches on the stove.

    woo hoo!!

    Great deal, but you better hide. When that guy comes home and finds out what his wife did with his stuff, he'll be looking for you.

    Did you buy that out of the back of a van at the gas station? So what are you planning on filling those with?

    Sweet jesus....I see "score!" posts all the time here, but this one really does take the cake. You lucky lucky lucky bastard.

    Protip: Center your 4 taps on the fridge, and leave space for 2 more. You'll want six in the end, trust me. I stupidly put 5 taps centered on my fridge, as originally I kept my CO2 inside the fridge, taking up the space of 1 keg. Now, CO2 is outside, fridge can hold 6 kegs, but adding a sixth tap would throw off the symmetry!

    I hate you, so so so much. How the hell did that guy not get at least a thousand bucks for someone who would have been equally enthusiastic to put it to good use? Like me...

    So jealous. Now it's up to you to make good beer with it.

    Thanks all!

    I was like a 5 year old on christmas morning. I knew I was getting the basic brew stuff (keggle, MLT, HLT) but had no idea he was throwing in all the other stuff.

    I'm loving all the jealousy.

    Mwa ha hah haha haha!
