    Ya. I guess I need to decide if I really want to save up the extra $600+ on getting the same setup you have, or just go with this robobrew now.

    This one is a little better. If Abita Purple Haze were a stout, that’s the taste. Pretty sweet initially, with a finish that’s a little dry.

    Yeah it’s a twelve days of Christmas sale.

    It looks like a fun all in one system and has really good reviews on the morebeer site. Just go into it with open eyes for the reasons @christyle mentioned

    I think it definitely is nice, but @christyle keeps convincing me to go with the 240v High Gravity system :laughing:

    Hey, just cuz I did doesn't mean you have to! It's a smokin deal in the robobrew. It would be a great start to at least try it with low investment for what you get

    It does seem nice. The only downside is the inability to expand and upgrade if I ever want to. I’m pretty set on the high gravity. Apparently there’s also a 120 kit from them that I may look in to some More instead of the 240. Would be nice to brew in the garage on a rainy day

    If you want to stay 120v, and the clawhammer is the same or close in pricing as the 120v high gravity, go with the clawhammer. That whole Clawhammer setup is really nice and custom built for that price.

    Does you garage have a single circuit, or two? If you have a nearby circuit you could pull from, you could also get a heatstick to speed things up, or just be content with a little longer timing on your brewday.

    It only has the one outlet. Actually there’s 2 but I don’t know if they’re different circuits. And the 2nd one is mounted up by the garage opener. Gonna have @TXpro4X4 take a look at all my circuitry if he comes over tonight :boink:

    If the garage is already wired up as 20 amps I’ll probably get the High Gravity 120v or claw hammer 120v kit so I can brew in there. If it’s not a 20 amp I’m just going to do the 240v High Gravity that you have

    All the circuits in the house except the lights are 20. I’m good there because I can plug-in to the patio where the washer is as that outlet is 20 too. Just need to check the garage. Wonder where the breaker box is for that haha
