We have been saving up to buy one of these for many years.
We were kind of waiting until the house was done, but as this year is our 10th wedding anniversary AND this year we have been together half our lives. As it is clearly some years until the house will be finished we decided to get it now.
It makes making beer from scratch (with barley and whatnot rather than kits or malt extract) much more easier as the whole process happens in this one container (up to the point you start fermenting).
We haven't made a huge number of all grain brews as it is a big faff over a gas burner and having to strain the super hot liquid in to different containers etc.
Now we hope to do LOADS. We are a bit stressed as the recent couple of beers we made (both on the same day) went bad during fermenting. Possibly because the yeast was old..We shall see if it is an ongoing problem.
The first brew we made is a light pale ale with corn and rice

The second is a porter.
