I have been in business for over 20 years, and have rolled out many new products so I understand every but of what you said. I still maintain that anyone who goes farther than the customer-shopkeeper dynamic is getting sucked in to a fools bargain. My very good friend did a kickstarter that was...

Good luck, but people post that they won't part out and that rarely works, especially in the quantity that you have. The SS Fermenter, mill, kegging items, and pots will bring you close if you part.

Or so you would like us to believe. Most for profit crowdfunding schemes include some sort of levels that align with different benefits, (t-shirts, the product, etc.). So you are indeed "investing", as I say if you want to open a business, start small and grow it, anyone that funds anothers...

Because kickstarters are bull****, if you have an idea grow your business organically, the idea to throw a ton of money at something is the definition of boom and bust. Internet bubble, tulip bubble, erc.

I am totally against any kind of crowd funding, as I think it's a modern Ponzi scheme. That said, I have been using a Morebeer 1/2" racking cane for about 4 years now. It's about as simple as it gets, you just need to put a 1/2" PVC(or SS or Brass) Valve with plactic(or SS or Brass) barbs...

We are Philly Homebrew Club, and we are interested in these. Please let me know if we can get them for $250, and if we can empty them somewhere before taking them, we will clean them on our own, thanks.

PM'd

Count me in!

Can you give a little more detail on what you mean by "Roasted Barley", thanks.

So my buddy's club did a honey buy that I bought in on, I want to make a Lambic Mead(Bochet), my idea is to caramelize about 25%(2.5#) of the honey, add maltodextrin, and pitch a lambic blend "WL655", and let it sit for a year, and feed it every month or so with DAP, then maybe add some cinnamon...

Go to a local Restaurant Supply store, or the On-Line srores should have it google "flat bottom long handled ladle"

this is the best thing to use

I have a plastic false bottom, it fits good, someone gave it to me a while ago, so I'm using it. I rigged it up with a copper pipe soldered into another one with holes drilled around it, it works really good, I would have to show a pix for your to understand.

I have a bottom draining MLT, I built it from some old Sankey parts that I took apart and fitted with a 3/4" copper pipe, I added a wooden base to hold everything tight, and I also have the recirculating tube in my HLT, this system works great. There is however one isse that I have, and have had...
