What would you buy?

[dhelegda]

If you had $150.00 to spend at the Home Brew Store what would you buy?

 

[jschein]

What don't you have?
Mill, fermenter, brew pot, refractometer, sack of grain?

 

[Mexibilly]

That would depend entirely on what equipment I had and the direction I was taking my brewing.
Personally I'd buy a bunch of uncrushed grain. Mostly 2 row, to save on grain bills for future recipes.
What does your brewery need?
What recipes are on deck?
If you can't decide I'll send you my address. You send me the check and I'll let you know how I spent it.

 

[kman6234]

Equipment wise I'm pretty content with what I have so I'd probably just use it on ingredients.

 

[k1ngl1ves]

Hookers & Blow.





Yep. You only live once...

 

[sportpak]

How often do you brew? If you brew a lot, I would buy a sack of 2 row and a few ounces of your favorite hops.
If you don't brew often, I would save the money until your ready to brew. Fresh ingredients make better beer.

 

[JKaranka]

In the UK you can buy a refurbished 3 gallon keg for that

 

[QuadConPana]

On brewing stuff? Or specifically at your LHBS?

If it's cash, easy question, since I just bought this.

With coupon codes that are easy to find online, you could buy this on Amazon:

and barely top $150. In terms of beer quality, it was the best purchase I ever made.

 

[FirstAidBrewing]

My LHBS doesn't have much in the way of fancy equipment. They stick to the basics. So with 150 in credit to that shop, I'd stock up on hops and yeast then refrigerate / freeze as necessary. Plus maybe some salts and StarSan

 

[Rhumbline]

If I didn't have one already, I would buy a grain mill.

After that, temp controller for a fermentation chamber.

After that, ingredients for styles I might otherwise not brew.

 

[geoffey]

Easy, I'd buy a beer for the hot chick that works at NB. Oh, wait . . .

 

[CJ-3]

Wirh $150 i would get:

Stir plate. $48.99
2000 ml flask $22.99
Bottle rinser $17.99
Weldless bulkhead fitting $16.99
sight glass $29.99

Comes to $136.95 before sales tax.

 

[DurtyChemist]

If you had $150.00 to spend at the Home Brew Store what would you buy?

Chigger pump
Refractometer
A couple pound bags of hops
Stainless 7 gallon fermenting bucket

 

[IrocChris]

60lb Vittles Vault and a 50 lb sack of Weyermann or Gambrinus 2 Row.

 

[Firewalker11]

Easy, I'd buy a beer for the hot chick that works at NB. Oh, wait . . .

SWMBO makes me go to the guys with questions. You are right though, just about perfect looks wise and really nice to old guys like me too!

 

[edecambra]

A pump changed my life!! But to make it truly awesome you'll need more cash for fittings and hoses.

You can use it for mash recirc, all sorts of transfer, whirlpool, and CIP. It is great
