I'd be down for (in descending order of interest): carboys, Sanke mash tun,
CO2 tank (how recertify?), cornies, bottles

A friend and former brewer is moving and has given me a bunch of brew gear
from his barn where it has been for ~20 years. Barn + 20 years = a serious
dust layer and I would predict that all seals and rubber would need to be
replaced with new.
2 cornies with dents in bottom, quite usable
1 cornie from a laboratory modified to have an electric pickup signifying
when it is nearly empty but holds beer fine in great condition.
12 cases of plain brown bottles, no labels and 24 bottles each, suitable
for bottling 27 gallons of your finest.
2 glass carboys--look to be 6.5 Gal
1 CO2 tank--looks to be a 20 pounder and probably would need to be re
certified before filling. The secondary regulator (low pressure side)
looks broken but would be an easy thing to replace.
1 Sanke barrel, cut and plumbed. Would need a screened bottom to work as
a mash tun, and probably a better pick-up.
10 EZ Cap / Grolsch-style / swing top 1-quart brown bottles
About 10 cases of Sam Adams bottles, still in the barn in cardboard boxes
which are presently unstable, all with Sam Adams logo in the glass and
therefor not suitable for competitions, most with some or part of the
original labels.
About 5 cases of Grolsch-style bottles, still in the barn
And while it would be convenient if I brought them tomorrow, I'm not sure
of the parking situation /security since they are in the back of an open
truck.
Any takers?
Ben
