Well done.

 

[Gwitz]

Great score, i wana brew 20g, 10g just isnt big enough.

 

[Keith_Mahoney]

Nice find.

How are you going to do 20gal batches in a 20gal pot, are you doing partial boils?

 

[BendBrewer]

You might want to keep it to 15 gallon batches but nice find.

Either my eyes are broken or you're off by about $500 on that one.

 

[jdlev]

That's about right...and why I love craigslist...that place is a gold mine

What key words do you search with for brewing stuff?

 

[jdlev]

I use a program called 'FREE CRAIGSLIST READER PRO' (just go to download.com and type in 'craigslist')

I use the program to search multiple cities close to me. I live in charlotte, so had I not been using the program, I probably would have missed this good deal. With the help of the program, I can search charlotte, statesville, hickory, winston salem, etc all at once.

I found this one using the term 'brew'.

I think mine are broken too, then.

I do love Craigslist though, I scored my entire all-grain system and kegging system for $600.

exactly! Inquiring minds want to know!!!

 

[pwndabear]

i personally always search beer, keg, homebrew, home brew, and brew. usually brings up good results.

 

[foyt20]

Its funny because every time I search CL, I could make gallons of coffee, but no homebrew.

I do the same thing. Searching variations of corny (or cornie) helped me find my current set up.

exactly what I search as well....

The brewers in Tallahassee must hang on to their **** :rofl:

 

[jeepinjeepin]

Congrats. I'm up 85/52 just south of Winston. Now I know who my competition is on CL.  I've been trolling the free columns lately. Lots more spam/phish lately. They are getting smarter too.

 

[ryandlf]

Nice find!

 

[Bithead]

I currently search Beer, homebrew, home brew, stockpot, stock pot, turkey fryer, grain mill. I grab the RSS feed for each of these and put each of them in an RSS reader gadget on an iGoogle page. I can easily reference several times a day.

 

[TripHops]

Outstanding Find

Congratulations...

When I read the listing as linked, it now appears to be just for the stand & burners. There is a comment that the pots in the pictures have been sold. I guess we know who has them.

Nice find, and nice that the owner was willing to split up the rig.

 

[leviticus]

I actually use Google alerts with the site:atl.craigslist.org flag and various keywords. I have it e-mail me any time a keyword shows up, regardless of relevance. End up seeing a lot of used kegs, coffee setups, etc, but I've scored free propane tanks, tools, etc... Still waiting on a fellow Atlantan to put his three-tier up! lol...

 

[BigBlueDog]

Thought I recognized that system. The seller is an HBT member.

I think I can beat the OP's craigslist score. A little while back I scored 2 pots from the same guy for a total of $380 and that included shipping to me. The 2 pots were both Blichmann's and still had the original price tags on them Neither pot came with a lid or a dip tube brush, but a 20 gallon and a 15 gallon Blichmann pot for 380

I have put them to good use making a 10 gallons of Berliner Weisse and 10 gallons of Biermuncher's Cream Ale recipe.
