One thing about my system is the cost is very low for what I have. My 14 gallon boil kettle was $90 and both kegs were free. I saved one from a land fill and a person at work gave me the other when they could not find anyone to return an old keg too. Stand was made by a friend as something for him to do with his dad. My QD's are really low cost and very functional. Other than that, purchases have been a Hurricane burner (just the burner, no stand), one pump, multiple stainless fittings, false bottom, one electric heating element, a digital temp controller (doubles as HLT and fermenting fridge controller), 50' 1/2" OD copper immersion chiller with whirlpool return (chilling and HERMS coil), silicone tubing and new for this session a Blichmann AutoSparge. Looking forward to Saturday.

Can someone bring over some bags or something. The backyard lights up pretty well for some games.

I have a set I can bring over. Even if I head out early, I don't use them enough to need them back right away.Matt F wrote:Can someone bring over some bags or something. The backyard lights up pretty well for some games.

So ended up making pulled pork and will be bringing that tonight. If someone wants to bring buns to make sandwiches that would be cool otherwise it is good by itself.

I'm hoping to be there around 8:30. If I make it, I'll bring a Beer Camp 12-pack.
