Unfortunately my all-grain gravity feed home brewing set-up has to go as I'm set to move to Chicago in April. This is great for 5-6.5 gallon batches of beer and has proven to be a pretty efficient set-up.
I put this together a little more than two years ago and have about 10-15 batches on it, so it's practically brand new. It took well more than $2,300 to accumulate everything, and everything is practically new.
