Wanted: All-grain equipment

Post by Paucey » Sun Jul 17, 2011 11:27 pm

Looking to fill in some gaps in my all-grain setup... still need:

Propane Burner
Grain Mill

Don't necessarily need but would like:

One or two extra Corny Kegs ($25-$30 preferably)
A self-priming Pump
A filter housing and pads or some... sort of... filtering... thing.

If anyone has any of these things used and willing to part with them I'd be very happy to take them off your hands!

I have a plate filter, but AFAIAC, the pad type filters aren't worth a hill of beans on beer. They plug quickly.

I only recently learned about the pad filters. Before I had only known of the plate ones... the plate ones seem like they would be much better. Are you looking to offload this plate filter?

Are we talking about the same item? The filter I have uses 2 large round filter pads - NG sells them as wine filters. If that's what you want, I'll sell it to you, but I can almost guarantee you won't be happy.

I am filtering my beer to remove any residual sediment that might form in my bottles (since I'm force carbonating I'm not expecting to have much sediment as it is) and to improve its clarity.

I think that over time you'll find that to be a massive waste of time, but maybe not. Either way, I'll sell you the filter. How about half of the best price you can find in the province?

I'm not necessarily sold on the need of having a filter which is why I separated it from "needs" into "would be nice". That being said though, if you could give me some more information about what you have I can make a more informed decision, I suppose. You say NG sells them so I assume it's something they carry in stock?

The big red thing in the middle. The one I have is white, but they are the same. Like this:
