... A Braumeister.

Just about to sign up for a rental property but doesnt have a garden so no shed [DISAPPOINTED FACE]

Thought about maybe renting a garage off the council but not sure if it will have power/water etc.

So been looking at these Braumeisters and also the Grainfather. Obviously the Grainfather is cheaper but would I be silly not to fork out that bit extra?

Braumeister every time. Better control, easier to use, higher build quality, excellent customer support and very high re-sale values.

Plus buy from Neils at http://www.homebrewshop.be and use take advantage of the poor performance of the euro to save a pile of cash.

You can buy a new 20l BM for £1070 + £15.00 postage = £1085.00 & pay in UK £££ or you might get a better deal with paying in Euro's https://homebrewshop.be/nl/14-speidel

I have never used a GF so cant really add an opinion of which is better, a BM I have used & wouldn't hesitate on buying another if needed. Pays your money & makes your choice.

I enjoy owning my Braumeister. It's easy to use, easy to clean and I can brew in my kitchen. I have the 50L one. It certainly makes great beer.

I've a Braumeister. It's excellent. Grain father gets decent reviews and is cheaper. Never used one. I'd say it's dependent on your wallet. (I might've gone GF had they been around when I bought the BM ...)

I'm just about to buy a 20L one from Niels, my 10 gallon stainless 3v setup will soon be up for sale.

Your in for a treat.
I brew between 16L and 34L.
Gravities up to 1080.
And efficiencies up to 95%.
Cant believe how good a 20L BM is.
