    BrewDemon is really getting aggressive! If you cut out a piece of your LBK and send it to them with a $15 check for shipping and handling they will send you one of their Conical Fermenters! http://www.brewdemon.com/bd-giveaway Very interesting marketing!

    Who do you consider as Mr. Beer competitors?

    Good info! Thanks Teromous! Guess I didn't think of Cooper DIY Beer as a competitor since the bought Mr. Beer. Also I didn't realize that NorthernBrewer & Midwest was selling smaller kits like that.

    Who do you consider as Mr. Beer competitors?

    I realize that this topic might be a lightning rod in this forum since there is a lot of strong opinion about Mr. Beer, but having had my start in brewing with a Mr. Beer Kit it's what I'm familuar with. I have now done other extract brewing and even an All Grain recipe or two. Lately I have...

    Build an electric heat stick!

    I have a stove that real struggles to bring larger volumes of water to a boil. This looks like it would be a good solution to help get the water up to temp quicker. http://www.beerborg.com/index/2013/01/how-to-build-an-electric-heatstick/

    Looking for a short fermentation vessel

    The BrewDemon Conical is 16" tall and just over 9" wide. It also has a vent hole in the top that you can add a blow off tube to if you wanted. I have a review up on www.beerborg.com if you want to know more. :tank:

    BrewDemon Conical Fermenter Review

    I've been pretty busy the last few days. I received some packages from BrewDemon, one with their 2 Gallon Signature Kit that had the One Evil Pilsner recipe. The other package had both a 2 gallon and 6 gallon recipe of the Wild Spirit IPA in it. So I've been spending a lot of time getting to...

    I got me some Demons

    We have bought several of those slimline containers to keep cold water in our fridge. The longest I've had one last in my fridge before starting to leak is about 6 months. They're about $5 but like you said they are fragile compared to he LBK which you can get from Mr. Beer for $10 plus...

    I got me some Demons

    On the BrewDemon FaceBook page they were talking about giving people a free conical fermenter with $7 shipping but you would have to send them a piece of your Mr. Beer keg that would render it unusable! A lot of people expressed interest on that so BrewDemon is "working out the details" to make...

My brother, who is a retired police officer and public safety administrator is a huge gun collector and knows just about everything about guns you could think to ask. A few years ago we both...
