klarstein all-in-one

[appositive]

Does anyone have experience with this unit?

http://www.klarstein.com/Kuechenger...elstahl.html?listtype=search&searchparam=bier

The page is in german, but the text contains very little information in any case. The unit looks like a grainfather copy, but price is less than half of grainfather.

I have been able to find info on the klarstein boiler (and similar units) but not this one, which includes a pump and other features (apparently a cooling coil too? though this is not illustrated on the page).

thanks!


edit: looks like it's one of these

has anyone used one of these?


edit: it's also marketed as an 'ace micro brewery'. Here's a youtube video:

Yes it says it comes with a cooling coil.

Looks like a coffee maker turned brew pot.

Looks pretty cool but I'm gonna let someone else pull the trigger on that first

Looks like a grainfather rip off

A few guys from NL have bought it, there's some discussion on our Dutch homebrew forums. They have had a few problems with incomplete deliveries (they forgot the chiller) and cheap construction/faulty units. They say (online) costumer service is excellent.

Same exprience in Norway. A lot of them on the market. The only realy bad component is the lifting "hank" on the grain-basket" - not stiff enough.

This is more or less a copy of the GF, not to bad quality, but still a copy.
But then again - they are realy cheap.

On Alibaba, they are offered @ aprox 200 USD for one unit. Less if you buy more.

The company who makes them are big on water heaters.

check out alibaba and do a search for: 30L BEER MASH TUN / BEER MASH TUN 30L / MASH LAUTER TUN

Hi mate, Can you inform the link for the dutch forum?

Im willing to buy on of those systems in the NL.

Couldnt find roborew in there.. only shop I found ( www.brouwmarkt.nl ) only have the Grainfather but Im looking for something cheaper, like Robobrew, Klarstein , Ace .. I found in Europe to be shipped to NL , but if I can buy it locally ould be better. Thanks a lot.

thanks! Found it locally as well. Anyone has some experience with it? Worth it?
I wanted an upgrade and was thinking about electric pot with stirer and normal filtration or just buy this klarstein electric all in one pot? What do you think? As I see on the web the efficiency of this all in one is not quite good? Compared to normal traditional mashing in cooler or to what is my second option - 27L electric heater with stirer and filtration spring.
