nice looking piece of kit but $45000 dayum.

That must be a typo, surely. There's less than $5k of gear in that setup.

 

[mjadeb1984]

thats what i was thinking but i think considering the level of automation in it i think they would charged a bit more that 4500

$10 its like a BMW, water hoses at different diameters at each and and 10 x the cost of any normal car. Explains the price ...

That's a Bargain! :wacko:

It looks impressive, but man that's a lot of cash.

Stainless conical fermentor adds a little so lets call it $6k worth of gear.
However the HERMS-coil is integrated into the HLT which IMHO is a design flaw.

its the touch screen computer mind you for 45k u would want it to be voice activated!

Hammacher Schlemmer? Aren't they two of the German drinking team guys in that Beerfest movie?

Should fit a corney + ice easily.

Stainless conical fermentor

has a "stick on" thermometer attached! Lowers the tone somewhat!

Looks like a genuine fermometer though, not just a cheap stick on thermometer.

YYR, $3.50 of 'precision control'!
I shouldn't complain, it looks like a great deal for some mad oligarch somewhere!
