Hey guys I worked up a list of equipment I'm going to purchase this week. I just wanted opinions on my selection. I wanted to get some good equipment for home brewing 5-10 gallon AG batches so I can work on recipes and put together some good beers.
I just wanted opinions on my selection as well as the cost I'm getting it for and if you know anywhere that may sell the equipment at a better value.
My list:
-Blichmann boil maker 15 gal brew kettle with glass sight, thermometer, quick connect, and hop blocker for $493.97
-Blichmann floor burner with 24" leg extensions for $190.00
-Blichmann thermominator for $200
-Fermenters Favorites AG starter kit with 2 10 gallon coolers and false bottom for $200
This is my plan so far let me know what you think.
Also I considered making my own hot liquor cooler and mash tun cooler with false bottom and brass ball valves. From what I see making the two would cost me about $60 for the 2 coolers $70 for the valves and $45 for false bottom for a total of about $180 with tac. So my thought process was that for $20 more I could not have to go through the hassle of building it. What do you guys think?
Thanks
Shawn
