You won’t be disappointed, it does it all. I have brewed 9 beers from a barley wine to stout to a fake lager (actualy Krispy not Voss) it has preformed amazingly for all. I am actually planing a utopia style extreme beer using it as the base then super high gravity for anything that is left.

Not a brew day but a cider caning/pressing day.

About a 100 bucks.
