BenB I'm open to suggestions on what is best. I'm thinking a couple of SS Brewtech buckets as fermenters - or an equivalent, but am open to recommendations for mashtun and boiler. I think I would prefer electric for boiling as that is what am used to and probably safest but am not adverse to gas - if can run off patio gas not a problem as one of my BBQs runs on patio gas so always have a ready supply, but if butane then can always get new cylinders for that.
I am also going to venture into corny keg - something always wanted to do but no-one ever sold a beginners set up for the complete idiot but there do seem to be a few starter set ups available now - this would be an extra on top of the brewery set up.
Any recommendations on what works gratefully received

For kegs there's also the option of Sankey kegs.

I've just ventured into corny kegs after years of bottling and its the best decision I've made around storing beer. The initial outlay for kegs, disconnects, CO2 bottle, regulator etc is pretty high but it's worth it.

I took a punt on five kegs from homebrew centre two years ago. Last month I sold two of the neater ones for a fiver profit. At least with second hand cornies you can get your outlay back should the need arise.m_rawdin wrote:I've just ventured into corny kegs after years of bottling and its the best decision I've made around storing beer.
