I have decided to sell my turnkey homebrewery. Included in this sale is everything you need to brew beer at home. The sale includes the following and I would like to sell it as a package only.

TOTAL - $2,500

brewery $1,800.00
mill $100.00
testing supplies $80.00
fermenters $60.00
grain/storage $100.00
kegs $120.00
keg washer $75.00
stir plates $45.00
flasks $65.00
byo collection $10.00
oxy kit $45.00

The brewery is my own design and called the 2P-Twent-E ad has been detailed here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=160970

It is an all electric system that runs on 110VAC at 20 amps. So you can brew in any kitchen or garage you want to with no exhaust needed for fumes! It is a great little system and while it will brew 4g optimally, I have been brewing 5.25g batches with it for the last several years, it just adds about 30 minutes to the brewday. The construction is all stainless with a copper wort chiller/HERMS coil and stainless cam lock connections. This thing is really a dream to brew on. Extra bonus, it acts as a great sous vide water oven for the chefs out there. The temperature is controlled via PID in the control box. I usually use the PID function to maintain mash temperatures, then pin it to 100% in the controllers manual mode during boil. Pumps are switch controlled.

The extras include a Monster Mill MM2. It is a great little mill and chows through the grain. I have 6 airtight five gallon buckets for grain storage and you can have what's left in them.

Two stir plates are included with stirbars for starting your yeast cultures. I also have 2 1L Erlenmeyer flasks and a 5L Erlenmeyer.

Test kit includes a refractometer, and a full set of testing hydrometers from Williams brewing. They are beautiful and give very precise/accurate readings. Also comes with a glass hydrometer jar, pH test strips, a stainless turkey baster, and is packaged in an aluminum sided foam filled case. http://www.williamsbrewing.com/HYDROMETERS-REFRACTOMETERS-C74.aspx

Williams Brewing oxygen wand and one full O2 tank. http://www.williamsbrewing.com/WILLIAMS-5-MICRON-OXYGEN-AERATION-SYSTEM-P3668.aspx

Keg washer and two sanke kegs to get you started toward kegging. I HIGHLY recommend sanke kegs over cornies. The washer is great for cleaning fermenters and kegs. I'll also toss in some sani-clean, starsan, and what's left of my pbw. http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/brewery-essentials-carboy-washer-assembly

I'll include two near new fermenter buckets, and two 6g carboys, along with some airlocks and bungs.

Massive collection of BYO and Zymergy magazines for you to look through.

All told, this is a great value for someone who wants to get serious about their brewing. The only thing you really need past this is a sanke tap setup, and a temp controlled fridge. This system will allow you to produce very high quality beer with better control over the process than many systems. It is flexible and easy to use. The brewery itself cost about $2,700 to build in parts alone, and all the other components are the top end available for home brewers.
 
I'm not really interested in getting into parting it out. I'm still going to brew, I just don't get to it often enough to justify this super nice system anymore. If I can't sell the whole thing as a package, I'll just hang on to it.
 
For anyone that is interested in this system, he built me a similar system and it is more than capable and impressive. He does professional work and you wont be disappointed. Good luck with the sale.
 
Well, it has been a while, but this brewery is still for sale. I brewed a bit over spring and summer and have kind of forgotten about selling it. Let me know if you are interested.
 
I have had a hard time trying to sell some of my electric stuff as well. I think the issue is the flood of good commercial electric brewing products to the market. Grainfather / Brew-Boss / Brew Easy etc. People are buying more turnkey commercial setups than they are home built ones.
 
Maybe. I think the market for truly high end home equipment is still just pretty small. I sold my last brewery and it took a really long time too. If you have it priced right, eventually someone will want it. I think I have this system priced properly and that it will eventually sell. There are a lot of options and a lot of producers battling for the same small market share. I feel like this system is still a very good value and that it will sell if I keep it visible.
 
So a bunch of people have looked at this listing now; what does everyone think of the price? I think it is a good deal, how about you all?
As a guy who has built a larger 3 kettle system with rims I think the price your asking is a bit steep....

Just my opinion but most people who are willing to spend that kind of dough at once are looking for bling factor as much as function... Yours (like mine) is more about functionality. If you used more expensive enclosures and triclover fittings (which IMHO are less practical than camlocks on the hot side) to made it look "Cooler" more people would likely bite since it is a hobby and these are brewing toys for many folks. its just like anything else really... Most golfers with the money want designer mucho$$ golf bags as well as clubs even though its silly from a practical standpoint...

Not trying to give you a hard time but when reading this its easy to get the impression Your also kind of violating the rules here by "testing possible business ventures here" (im not saying you are but...)
 
I know you said you don't want to part out, but I sent you a PM about the glass carboys. Thanks.
