Hi all,

First time poster, long time reader. I have recently decided to give up alcohol after around 6 years of home brewing. Since none of my close friends have the room & interest, its time to sell all of my brewing related things. Prices are negotiable. I'm near Rockford IL and would be willing to travel a reasonable distance to to help with pickup or drop off of some items. I'm not too far from I-90 and IL 173 if you'd be in the area and wanted to arrange for a pickup. Here's a imgur link with most of the items & brief descriptions https://imgur.com/a/D2dnhnZ

My schedule doesn't really give me much time to ship things, so I'd like to avoid shipping if at all possible.

Whole lots never seem to sell on here, but, IF you're interested, the whole lot will include a ton of extras not listed below. I'd entertain around $2k for everything with 1 chest freezer and would be willing to travel a few hours to arrange a drop off/meet up/pickup. PM me for details.

Also, thanks for the many tips and advice over the years. I accidentally developed a fantastic crowd-pleaser beer recipe from a 'forgotten' style from advice read on this website and may eventually post it.

I will try to respond as soon as I can to questions & PMs.

The list:
SS brewtech brew bucket, 7 gal brewmaster edition. 2 available. Will come with thermowells and blow off elbow fittings for the lids. $170EA

I bought the 2L stir plate and it arrived today as expected. Item was just as pictured and described. A+ Seems like someone I would have enjoyed brewing with. Would recommend from my experience.
 
Also, thanks for the many tips and advice over the years. I accidentally developed a fantastic crowd-pleaser beer recipe from a 'forgotten' style from advice read on this website and may eventually post it

I already have tons of homebrew stuff but your items offered and prices look pretty good from here.
Your "forgotten" style recipe sounds interesting, I hope you can post it, Thanks!

I will include cases of 22 or 12 oz bottles on request with local pickups; I'd rather they get used instead of throwing them in the recycling bin. I also have some glass 5 and 6 gal carboys, if you're a local pickup and want 1, I'll bring you one.

Also, I have a bunch of Brew your own (BYO) magazines and beer books. If you're a local pickup and you want 'em, let me know. First person that calls them gets them all.
 
I concur with the other positive feedback on the seller! Nice guy, and was on time for a pickup. As others said, buy with confidence.
