Luckyyy! So you haven't bought anything to actually brew with yet? You'll be glad you jumped on that...it's a hell of a deal. Congrats!

Now you have an excuse to start brewing...alot!

I'm just getting started in this obsession. I have been lurking, trying to learn, learn, learn before I start accumulating my brewery setup. I have found a HBT member that lives very close to me who has offered to show me his process. I do plan on taking advantage of his generosity.

Wow. Can't wait to live in a bigger city with more stuff on Craigslist. lol

Now I just need to find a brew kettle!

Did I mention that the admission price for coming over tomorrow is 2 corny kegs? Might have forgotten to mention that part...

I actually have some equipment I no longer need, you can take a look at it while you're here

Dood, U SUX!!


LOL! Congratulations!

In San Diego, it's rare to find anything on craigslist for less than what I would pay on the internet. I've yet to see a keg fo less than $40.

I must not have checked Craigslist that day, otherwise those would have been mine

That's what I'm talkin' about! I bought 7 carboys for 5 bucks each, 186 Grolsch bottles for 40 bucks... buying new is just fricken silly.

I was looking for kegs and found 4x50L Sanke for FREE, but the bugger got rid of them before I could show up.

They were listed yesterday. He had them listed strangely. He didn't use the words "keg" or "cornelius" or anything like that. He had them listed as "stainless tank/water container". I was browsing looking for a stainless brew kettle (or something I could convert) and happened to click on it. He wanted $12 a pc or $50 for all 5. He lives in Poway and I work in Rancho Santa Fe, so I called him and said "I'll take them all, I'll be by in about an hour"

They're in pretty good shape, look like they haven't been used in years, so I will probably have to replace some seals etc... We will see after I give them a good cleaning.

Just lucky, I guess.

Nice grab, boss.

I ended up getting my kegging setup (20# CO2 tank, 1 corny, regulator, and all the hoses) for $100 from a mostly wine-making shop, but they do stock some beer stuff. I jumped on it faster than a ... uh, never mind. @_@
