Tricky Micky Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Has anyone seen these before. I can't find them anywhere online. The pic randomly came up in one of the FB home brew groups that appear on my news feed. Doesn't look such a bad set up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted August 12, 2023 Author Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) I have just ordered a Cordless Drill, so it looks like the Rabbit Hole has summoned me I was in Bunnings & the equivalent would have cost over $180.00 & that is for a 18v with only one battery pack. I t has had some very good reviews, but it may pay to buy a decent set of drill bits down the track. I have decided to look around for a decent Grain Mill, I have seen KL & KK versions, but I will look online further. Of course, there are lots of uses for a drill around the home. 21V Cordless Drill Driver + 2 Batteries Set Screwdriver Power Tool Hammer Kit 888714883962 | eBay Edited August 12, 2023 by Classic Brewing Co 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost as if you bought the bits and they threw in the drill for free. Still, you are on the right track about getting some good bits to use. Pro tip: I always buy two bits, particularly for the small ones, there's nothing worse than breaking the bit and not having a spare handy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I have had drills in the past, I used to put up Advertising display boards up in pubs as well as advertising surrounds over dartboards, rules of 8-Ball etc. so I have had experience with Hammer Drills. This particular unit had good reviews, but a few commented on the quality of the drill bits, but at Bunnings you can get packs like this as big as you like. I will see how the others go first & probably get a pack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was just a quick grab of a drill pack to explain what I meant; I couldn't find the pack that was recommended by Bunnings. It was more like this, but I know what you mean. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Got a couple of SS FVs delivered here in Italy. As they are Italian made the delivery was much cheaper than if I’d had them sent to Switzerland. Looking forward to doing a brew or two 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted August 18, 2023 Author Share Posted August 18, 2023 I just bought a cover, digital thermometer & a few rubs for the new BBQ. There is even an app to control the meat cooking, similar to an Inkbied.

I will probably get a more expensive one with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi etc. but for now it will read the internal temp of the meat whilst the temp gauge on the unit measures the internal temp inside of the BBQ. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
