Rather than post the pics here (there are quite a few) I'll just link to the picassa album.

Its a prototype all grain brewing system. Mix of marine grade aluminum and stainless steel. Bolts together, minimal welding, can be shipped UPS (not frieght) and is designed to use any kettle or keg on the market to brew with. Light weight, flexible and very easy to move.

I'll get pics of it in action when we do our next brew session on it. We are doing a double batch (probably a pilsner and then a red, possibly even a Russian imperial stout too)

Really loved hearing about this thing last night, man.

Does this stuff "keep"? I'd happily pay you for shipping some to me.

If you start making moonshine keep an eye out for revenuers

Ugh well you cant really ship it. Not without a liquor license. Its legal to make 150 gallons per year in Ohio for personal use. Not that they have any way to track it.

It keeps pretty well. Once you keg it and have it pressurized with CO2 its good for about 6 or so months. Basically like any other kegged beer out there. We (by choice) never bottle it due to the hassle. http://www.listermann.com/

That is where we get grain etc for this stuff. Now that they could ship you, if your so inclined to get into the hobby.

I also just realized the pictures don't include the finalized water delivery system to the top keg, or the p clamps we used to secure the gas system or water system to the center post. Definitely need some super detailed pics when we brew next.

Nice!

I'm on the other end of the spectrum. I have a big kettle, a stove, and I bottle everything (although only in 26oz bottles).

I need to do another batch.

Yeah, we do 10 gallon batches. Can't do that on a stove.
