1,000 to spend

[Bigpaulie]

If I had 1000 to buy on electric system where would my money better spent grainfather or Brewtech SS Controller and kettle

High Gravity has a 240v for about $1100. The 120v is a little cheaper.
They use the Blickmann boil coil, higher wattage than some.

If you have access to 240 v go with system that 240.

I have a grainfather and the wait to get up to boiling is hideous (almost an hour).

I'd probably save money and go with an Anvil Foundry. It may not be as fast as other systems, but it's significantly less expensive.

Where are you going to brew? Don't forget to consider condensation / ventilation.

Best to give the $1,000 to me and I'll give you some beers that I make. Deal? OK, thanks. OK, OK, I'll even make your favorite beer.

If you dont have fermentation temp control like a fridge with an inkbird start there. Then buy a 5liter flask and stirplate if you dont have one. Then buy a brewing system with the money leftover.

The anvil 10.5 foundry is pretty solid if you budget for a 240 volt, 15 amp circuit to plug into. On 120v, its only marginally better than all other coffee urns.
