After 15 years of brewing, due to health reasons I've got to sell - and I have a lot to sell!

I'll keep this page updated. If it's still listed, it's still for sale. Spend at least $100 and you can rifle through my miscellaneous box of valves, books, clamps, hoses, etc. and take as much of it as you want for free.

Unibrau V3 - Like new condition w/instruction manual: $1,000
  • 120v w/1650w element and 600w element, PLUS an extra 1650w element.
  • Comes with everything pictured including plate chiller, hop spider, 2 heavy duty extension cords, 2 element cords, pump, added temp probe location for improved mash control, electronic controller, sparge arm, and GFCI adapter.
  • If you want to move to electric brewing, or you're looking to start with an all-in-one system, this is the best brewing system I've ever used. This set-up (including upgrades) runs at least ~$1500 new. Selling for $1000.

  • Makes a great boil kettle for full boil 5 gallon batches, or use it as a hot liquor tank for your sparge (that's what I used it for).

I think your pictures are in a private Google Photos album. Not showing up on this thread or your second. Where in Wisconsin are you?
 
Sorry, not interested in buying anything but I figured my question would at least give you a free bump. The sparge arm as a little plastic "spreader" on the end. Did you add that yourself or did it come with the system? I have been looking for something similar and can not find anything.

That spreader piece was part of a different sparge arm assembly I used when I mashed in the igloo cooler - I think it's called a Fermentap Sparge Arm. I modified it with high temp drinking water tubing (PEX) to attach to the V3's tri-clamp fittings which brought my efficiency with the V3 up above 80%.
 
Apparently after a certain amount of time I can no longer edit the original post to reflect sold items. So, please note that the Chest Freezer is now sold.
