Now I’d have called it a Beer-O-Matic. I shall be supporting this invention and installing one at home.

Are you in the US ? No 240V UK model available, might take some time before they get round to producing one, if at all.

Don’t do it
I used to! but piled on the weight and was drinking every night?

Well if you drink every night then you will gain weight. Just need a bit of will power to restrict the nights on the pop 🙂

They are making a UK model I think.

Bit pricey

Surely if you’re going to take all of the skill out of it, you’d be better just going to the supermarket and buying some? Will probably work out cheaper doing that too.

Bit expensive but nice idea for a small pub.

now to me those “endorsements” suggest that it’s instant beer. Now that would be useful.

I brewed a batch of “Something Peculier” last Sunday. It’s still in the fermenting bin. When it finished it’ll need racking into another bin, fining and priming, then bottling. when that’s done it’ll need at least 3 weeks for bottle conditioning…

from their site

In about 3 1/2 hours your keg will be no longer filled with water — it will contain beer wort (unfermented beer). At this point you just need to detach the keg from the machine (remove the hoses from the keg posts), chill the keg to room temperature (a 5G bucket of ice-water works well), add yeast and then seal the keg with an air-lock keg lid. Your beer will ferment in the keg you brewed it in in (typically) 5 days to 1 week.

Yes, the beer with ferment in a week, but it will taste pretty rubbish if you try to drink it at that point.

The old peculier clone i brewed a while back is needing a few months to mellow out. It’s torture waiting! 🙂

I’m also a bit puzzled as to why they didn’t incorporate some sort of chiller? Having to dump that in an ice bath sort of takes away from the completeness of the unit IMO
