Craig's List Wins

[JohnSand]

Practically free homebrew, nice.

 

[KYBLUE]

My best cl deal was probably a 50lb siphon tube co2 tank for $70.

 

[Rob2010SS]

Wasn't from CL, got it from a garage sale down the street from me, a chest freezer that'll hold 2 carboys for $35. Works perfectly with the temp controller and the fermentation heat wrap!

 

[Scturo]

Just picked up a newer 7.0cuft chest freezer for $40 on offer up. Now I can use it as a kegerator, and my 5.0 will be my fermentation chamber.

No more waiting for a keg to kick, to brew again.

corny kegs $20, glass carboys $10, Full 20 lb Co2 w/regulator $40,
Keggle mash tun w/stainless false bottom, spigot and insulation $60
Then a bunch of free stuff was thrown in including a PH meter, a lab quality sample agitator that cost $1600 new, a bucket full of kegging accessories, worth over $150 new, and lots of other stuff. The guy was leaving the country and it all had to go.

Last week I got a brand new, full, 50# CO2 tank from a guy on Craigslist for $220. They go for $475 locally. The guy has a steady supply. Might need to get another.

Was this the ad I saw on CG from Danville, KY? I was going to call but was too late.

 

[madscientist451]

No, it was in Eastern WV about 6 months ago.

 

[Transamguy77]

Got these for free this morning!

 

[philjohnwilliams]

I just picked up 120+ Grolsch bottles for $15.

 

[smcinco]

Damn, I'm throwing $$ around like a gringo compared to you all. Before I read this nonsense I was pretty happy about getting a MW102 pH meter, Lamotte water test kit, stir starter stir plate and Kimax 2L flask, a bunch of petri dishes, test tubes, pipettes, loops and a Chris White yeast book all for $75. I was feeling pretty good because I would have spent that on the MW102 (which is what I was specifically searching for).

 

[Punx Clever]

Kegorator kicked the bucket day before yesterday. Found another one on craigslist for $60. Picked it up yesterday morning and had everything from the old one transferred to the new one before lunch.

Turns out they are the exact same freezer just different brands, so the collar was already perfect.

 

[Transamguy77]

Over the last few weeks I've had a couple more wins. First one was 2 ball locks....for free!

And the second was 2 keggles, 2 stands with burners, 5 ball locks, 1 3 gallon ball lock, 2 converted Sanke frementers, 10lb Co2 tank and 100ft stainless coil for a jockey box all for $100.

 

[Dexlor]

Guy was getting out of the hobby. $200 for the lot below. Not pictured is the used Bayou burner, a 6 gallon carboy, and 2 cases of bottles.

Bayou burner, Stir Starter, 1 liter flash, bench capper, grain mill, bottle tree, 8lbs PBW, starsan 32oz, refractometer 7.5 gal kettle, 6 gallon carboy, yeast nutrient, 2 cases bottles.


How did I do?

 

[kh54s10]

How did you do? Pretty good! The mill and the capper alone are about $140 to $200 or more, retail, depending on which mill.

 

[SanPancho]

God damn. That is a deal.

But some lotto tickets for chrissake

 

[homebrewer_99]

eBay: 25 corny's for $12 each...but I had to pick up @ 100 miles away.

24 carboys...$6 each.
