Re: Equipment score from CL
Next time I go hunting on CL it will be for a kegging setup.Probably early January. Figure that is the next logical step after starting 5 gallon batches.

Re: Equipment score from CL
I've been watchin craigslist since I started brewing several years ago and have seen one home brew item on it. It was overpriced. Your a lucky guy to find stuff like that.

Re: Equipment score from CL
He was asking $60 but it had been up a few It initially had a wort chiller included for $60 but he sold it separately. I offered $30 and he took it which surprised me.

Question about the 6.5 gallon carboy;
For 5 gal batches; is that to much headroom? Or is there no such thing?

Re: Equipment score from CL
it is ok, and yes there is. wouldn't put a lbk sized batch in there. may even be too much head space for a 4 gal. batch.madman960 wrote:Question about the 6.5 gallon carboy;

"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
Edgar Allan Poe

Kegged: Keg 1 - Irish Red; Keg 2 - Cream Ale; Keg 3 - Amber Ale; Keg 4 - APA; Keg 5 - Empty; Keg 6 - Empty; Keg 7 - Empty
The reason why the above list is so small Home Theater Build

Re: Equipment score from CL
That is a great score. 
CL Austin often has a ton of brew gear listed. I guess it depends on where you live re: if there is a large home brewing population in the area.
I've gotten stuff from people who were moving and people who just quit brewing in both cases the prices are usually very good.
