Hello all, first let me say that I am a bit of a lurker here in that I don't post much. I am working at opening a brewery in NH (Oddball Brewing Co.) and while doing demo, gubbament paperwork, dealing with the town ect. we have been working to source our equipment. We are building a 7 bbl frankenbrew system and we found a resource that has been awesome for equipment.

I know many in the BN army are in the same boat but I think this could be a boon for home brewers as well. If you have heard about them then sorry for the repeat. I don't work for them or get kickbacks, but our experience has been phenomenal. We sourced two of our tanks from Canada and one from Florida, they helped find us shiping companies and when we didn't want to pay the huge shipping fee from Canada (I needed a rape shower after seeing that bid) they pointed us in the right direction on getting a broker to go get hem ourselves. If your looking for tanks, pumps, cip equipment, and the list goes on.... I would look here first we saved a ton of money and it allowed us to go from 3 bbls to 7 bbls at a 1/4 of the cost of comparable purpose built tanks (though ours is really closer to 8 bbls than 7). I hope this helps some of you.
