What to buy what to buy

Fri Jan 16, 2009 10:08 am

so the wife gave me a $200 gift card for x-mas and i have been trying to figure out what to buy... I was thinking of getting a mill and a love controller for my keggerator(planning on redesigning in the near future). What do you guys think? Any other suggestions? I was thinking the monster mill for the mill...

Shame on you... every good homebrewer should have a prioritized wish list (especially around the holidays) for when some "extra money" comes your way.

The question you asked really cannot be answered. It all depends on your priorities. I started down the grainmill path last year - but I realized that there were much more important things to buy first.

I used my Christmas money for a Barley Crusher mill...

Unfortuneately, I need Fed Bailout-type money to get everything I want on my list...

You may want to check out the crankandstein. I picked up the basic two-roller for $67 and I love it. You could get two of them for the price of the monster mill.
