Here's one for those that love the shiny shiny:-

Shiny but tiny from the look of it. I do not believe that will get the party started.

It's pretty but doesn't look like it will make enough for the average homebrewer...

It can brew 5 litres at a time according to the website :

It looks kind of cool but i'l stick with the grainfather thanks

For as cool and shiny as it looks and all it's functionality, with a price of £861 I'll stick with my 1 gallon Brooklyn Brew Shop set up methinks.

"It just takes 5 days for your own fresh craft beer" - no wonder it costs so much it must be magic!

Seems very vague info on how the thing actually works.
Can it add mutilpe hop additions inc whirlpool & dry hops?
Is there any temp control during fermentation?

It would be good for trying out new recipes I suppose - if it were a quarter of the price.

Looks like a massive rip off to me.

I saw this a few weeks ago whilst searching the internet and I sat scratching my head

By the looks of things they provide the "pack" of ingredients too to simplify things. Obviously there will be a markup on them as well.

Surly it takes away the enjoyment of brewing, I know that's the main reason I do it.
