Still available? I am interested if it is the BCS-460 and stainless fittings.

Is the control system still for sale? Are the probes stainless or bronze? I am guessing the system is used correct; how did you like it?

Current owner wants $1400 for the system. I am trying to figure out if I can purchase the whole lot and break even, or if I am better off just buying what I want for a little more.

System is on hold for me until Monday. I am looking for the other stuff in the package as stated above, but it is cheaper to purchase the whole lot then pick it apart. Shipping would prbably be pretty high to MI. Let me know.

Kettles are included. A local guy here is selling everything he has; I am more interested in the keg, carboys and SS fermenter. I am about half way through building my system (Electric) and already have the stand built. I am trying to find someone to buy the stand, kettles and propane burners...

http://www.thebeveragepeople.com/beer-brewing-pilot-breweries.html Is anyone interested in a three tier brewing rig? This is a stainless steel 10 gallon brew pot system (or atleast the bones). It has no pumps which allows you to use it as a gravity system or integrate your own pumps. This...

So I have done a little more planning. I am trying to find a good source for valves. I am looking for electric acuated ball valves. I think I need 2 two-way ball valves and 3 three-way valves. I am going to have the two drain valves be manual 3-way valves to both final transfer to the fermentor...

Thanks for the nod of approval, how personalized is BCS? Can I have my fermetor, brewing station and kegerator controlled by the same system? Can valves for the HERMS system be controlled by BCS? like I have said I am still in the R&D stage and would appreciate any advice.

I put a lot of time into planning this weekend, so hopefully I can get rolling on the build next weekend. I am going to begin with manual (three way) toggle switches with a hope of moving to an "assisted brewing" system in the future mainly for repeatability and computer logging. I am also...

I am an engineer by trade, so the design definitely a fun stage; however I am still brewing out of a large kettle on my LP stove in my kitchen. I have a turkey burner, but don't see the need to move out of the kitchen until I complete my build. I am considering a steel frame (got a welder...

I have the two kegs I will be using as brewing vessels. I am planning on working on this a bit this long weekend. I am looking towards a two vessel, two pump system with only the HLT/BK will be temperature controlled. I am looking to put 5500 W/240V element in the keggle, but I am trying to...

I would be interested as well, I thought that was something I would have to give up. It would still be a far step above my current pot on stove system. But I am really looking to get the process out of my kitchen and into my garage where I have my bar almost complete. Also, some major savings...

1. Measure out strike water in HTL and heat to strike temperature 2. Add weighted grain to MLT 3. Dough in using strike water 4. Circlulate water through HERMS to maintain temperature 5. Turn off temperature and drain water out of HLT 6.Transfer wort to HLT or "Brew Kettle" 7. Heat to boil...

I have been looking to build a single tier system to put in my garage. For that reason I have been focusing on an electric system. I also think it can be pretty efficient. After some research, and trying to keep it as efficient as possible, can a two keggle system match a standard three vessel...

Anyone know where to pick up some corney kegs in the NC area?
