I know this subject has been listed a few times in the past including one by me. I am now seriously considering purchasing a unit having seen one in operation at TWOC in Perth and had a number of questions on process addressed by Ian Williams.
Yes it is expensive but so was the Braumeister that got a hammering on price on this site only to now be the "toy of choice" for a quite a number of brewers
I don't play golf, go to the races, own a boat, smoke or gamble so the outlay is in my view in line with any or all of those hobbies/vices!!!
Ian has a masters of brewery technology from a London institute and has either consulted on been the master brewer at a number of world breweries and I consider him knowledgeable enough to be able to offer the comments he has.
Some of his responses are counter to what is held as common practice by brewers on this site and are presented for discussion and not necessarily to counter what others have said
The questions I posed to Ian and his responses are too long to directly post here so I have included a Word attachment
Cheers
