New Grainfather Products Coming Soon!!!

[B2B]

If you're thinking about buying a new system soon then you might want to wait a couple of weeks and check out the new Grainfather products launching on the 27th September... sorry we're sworn to secrecy though so that's as much as we can say!!!

If you don't tell us we're not buying any.

Well looking at the pictures the S40 looks pretty basic on the other hand the g40;looks okay

 

[The Baron]

Tell us the price range then

 

[Brewnaldo]

Tell us the price range then

Aye, get it telt

 

[B2B]

Sorry guys we'd get shot if we did...

I'm probably pushing what I'm allowed to say by saying that everyone knows the Grainfather range is a great selection of kit but the one niggle has been they haven't been as "financially accessible" as some other machines on the market... one of the new machines looks to rectify this and bring Grainfather quality within the reach of more people. As for the actual price, sorry but we can't release the details until the 27th.

The G40 and SF70 fermenter are looking like they are running late though and might be the week after, although the details will be available. The S40 though should be in stock in time for the launch date.

Can't wait to see details next week then

If the G40 is the G30 updated with all the bells and whistles from the G70, then I'm all here for that. This issue I have is given the cost of the G70, compared to say it's Brewtools counterpart I suspect that it will be massively beyond what I'm willing to pay for the upgrade from my G30.

 

[B2B]

The G30 is here to stay but the G40 has some improvements on both the G30 and G70... but yes these improvements do cost a little more although how much

Almost time... only 4 more sleeps to go!!!

by the looks of it the s40 is similar to the Brewster Beacon 40, Brew Monk, Hopcat etc. The G40 looks be be more expensive than the G30 makes me wonder if the G30 will drop in price now.
