Hey everybody. We are finishing up a new customer map on our website and then we will have a list of customers up for you to checkout. If you want to reach out to us at proseries@blichmannengineering.com we can find the closest brewery to you that uses the equipment. We have a lot of these systems out there as we have been selling them for almost two years. Just let us know how we can help.
thanks,
Drew Barnes

This really is a great system. Very simple. Good quality. We try to keep things simple and integrate the features you need to make good beer without the features that just add more to the price. We have a lot of breweries out there using this guy so let us know where you are at and we can try to find somebody close to you. No matter what equipment company you choose I would always recommend visiting one of the breweries who uses their equipment. Pick their brain and see what they like and don't like about it. We have a video on our website with a brewer who is winning awards with his beer. It can help give you a better idea of how the system works, but it cannot replace the experience of visiting a brewery in person and chatting with the brewer who uses the system each day. I am partial to our system, but it may not work for everyone. Hopefully you can find the right system for your brewery, and let us know if we can help in any way.

I would like to think our customer support helps keep them off of the forums and that is why you guys aren't getting much feedback. We really try to take care of our customers.

I was told you're not customizing at this time. I want the 2bbl system with a third element added to both the kettle and HLT. Then switch the 2bbl panel for the 3 bbl panel that uses 6 6000w elements.
I was given prices to purchase all as is. I would have to do the modifications to the pots and add the elements. any chance you could have your procurement give a call to the venodor and ask for a prototype 2bbl system with the extra elements installed? You'd then have another option for Brewers wanting more power in the 2bbl system.
FYI per my standard door sizes (36") I can't get your 3bbl inside.

Hey hey, I also just purchased the 3.5bbl electric 3 vessel from Blichmann. Just got it in the other day and started piecing things together. The "manual" is very scant and doesn't really help much, and the chiller they provided is from a 3rd party (advantage) and has one in and one out with no tubing or fittings, with no information on how to connect to 3 FV's and a brite. I'm actually really frustrated with Blichmanns lack of support. I mean, I know what you get what you pay for, but you would think you could provide some real instruction on how to put everything together.
