That's awesome JP there are some opportunities out there to get all kinds of great brew gear from people who quit, move (or get screwed by the occasional SWMBO :( ) if you keep eyes and ears open.

I've gotten a ton of great stuff off of C'S List and a lot of the guys have gotten fridges and freezers from locals at a great price for converting.

Isn't it an amazing feeling to bring all that stuff home and "play"/ plan with it. :banana: :banana: :banana:

:clink: Good deal for you Jimmy :clink:
I looked up The KegWorks Store you posted about in another thread, How hard is it to get to in Buff? I might check them out on my next trip up there. Is there a Mighty Taco near them? My Buffalo trips always revolve around a Mighty Taco stop. :)

Nice! It wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that you're a pirate, would it?

It depends on how dark your car windows are and how many cops are around. And it would be kind of chilly this time of year.

Oh wait, you mean Buffalo LOL.

if you're familiar with Niagara Homebrew it's just right down the road. On Military Rd just south of Sheridan Drive in Tonawanda.

I still go to Niagara Homebrew for ingredients and brewing advice but Kegworks is pretty awe inspiring as far as toys.

Closest Mighty is about a mile away on Sheridan and Delaware

Hit all three and that's a damn good day.

Thank you, That's what I like about Buffalo a Mighty Taco on every corner. Been to the Delaware one a lot of times. I have to take my Daughter and grandson up to Children's next month, and I'll try to make a plan around it.
