Looking to get an electric nano to complement my restaurant. Looking for opinions before I shell out the buck$$, I am currently leaning towards spike's. Not 100% set
 
It looks like the Sabco (brew magic) system is a bit more reasonable (their web site says they've knocked $5k off the electric system). I don't know what the differences, if any, are although it looks like the brew magic system might have a bit slicker interface. They've been at it longer than most.

Good luck! Where you at?

Located in Vallejo, Ca. Currently have a BBQ restaurant that has a built in clientele. My business model is to do my own beer but also provide a space for accomplished home brewers in the area to brew beer on a pilot system. The pilot would be considered small for a tap room/restaurant but certainly an upgrade from a home system.
 
Congrats on the exiting venture. Have you reached out to our customer support team? We have a few other customers that have started concepts similar to yours (I can think of a crab shack and pizza place right off the bat). They will be a able to walk you through the entire process!

I have been in contact with Spike, the nano system that you offer looks great. I am still doing my research and not 100% sure what the best direction is to go. Certainly the nano is a great starting point but the brewery will be next to an established restaurant, and I am afraid I will outgrow the 1 bbl system quickly.

Totally understand. Don’t be afraid of success. If you outgrow the 1bbl it means you’re doing something right and will be better suited to purchase something bigger. We have a handful of people that bought a Nano over a year ago now, have very successful operations and they are still using the Nano!
