Sold 20 gallon tippy dump system and temperature controlled fermenters. $1500, $300 for fermenters.

I am moving and need to downsize. I believe this is More Beers V2 of their tippy dump system. I bought it from a brewery that was going out of business. 20 gallon batches. Fermenters are heated and cooled. Tri-clamps all around. March pump and large hop basket included. A few other accessories. $1500the system, $300 apiece for the fermenters. Pick up in Erie, Colorado, or I may be able to work something out local delivery wise.

How are the fermenters cooled? Assuming heat wrap for heat.

Yes, a heat pad/tape on the side between the insulation. Cooled by dual Peltier plates on the side. You can easily lager even at room temp.

@davemunro - I will be honest upfront - I am not interested in purchasing this as I do not have the room but I would love to hear more on those Peltier coolers. I am familiar with Peltier but did not know they could cool a fermenter that well. Did those come stock with those fermenters or is that something you rigged up. Care to share any details about them (how are they attached, controlled, etc)?

Yea, they are neat technology for sure. When electrical current is applied to them, one side gets really cold, and one side gets hot. The hot side is mitigated by a small fan and cooling fins. They are pretty quiet during operation. They came standard on the fermenter, but there are threads on the inter-webs where people have rigged up their own.

How is the power usage?

Have no idea. I never did any kind of monitoring. In addition, I would say it's highly dependent on your target temp vs. ambient temperature.
