Sweet rig! They say the brewing equipment doesn't guarantee you make good beer, but it looks like this at very least gives you a pretty convenient brew day, way to go all in!

Hello everyone! I am Bob and I am a new brewer and general hobby collector. I have always been a fan of craft beer but my brothers got home in to brewing, one of them gifting me an entire brew starter kit (he is a saint but don’t tell him I said that). I found this place when my saintly...
