I have absolutely no equipment unique to homebrewing. Thus, I need to source it. I am wanting to get the following:

40-quart kettle with spigot.
6.5 gallon food-grade HDPE buckets (2), with spigots and holes in the lid--either big holes for stoppers or grommets.
Airlocks, two-piece (4).
False bottom that can fit kettle and HDPE buckets.
Italian glass 6-gallon carboy, with the nice, thick walls.
Paddle
Hand cranked mill (I used a Philmill for an Imperial stout, so I'm not afraid to turn a handle for a couple hours)
Heat resistant food-grade tubing.
Bottle rack and brush
Carboy brush
Carboy handle
In-line flow meter.
Wort chiller.
Clamps.

I hear there is something much nicer than TSP for cleaning to be had.

So, any suggestions where I can reasonably source this stuff?
 
I would try Craigslist and facebook marketplace first and see if you can get a good deal or so to start with.
You might want to see if there’s a homebrewing club anywhere within reasonable distance; they might have some guys who want to part with some extra equipment.
There are a number of online homebrew supply shops that sell just about anything you want. Even eBay and Amazon carries a lot of what you are looking for.
