And that includes the 4-keg 20-gallon kegerator in the garage.

I don't know... something about 7 days bothers me. Brewing usually takes 30 at home. I get why, but I DON'T TRUST IT.

Its like how the hell could I get 7 minute abs in 6 minutes?!?!

It's because this machine bends the Space Time Continuum by creating a wormhole inside the machine to make beer that would normally take 30 Days only take 7 Days to Brew.

Either that or your overpaying for a really shiny machine to make really crappy beer.

here

The current global homebrewing method of making beer involves making flat beer that then needs to be carbonated somehow in a secondary production step. This extra step can take up to 4 weeks in the case of bottled homebrew. We have solved this problem by fermenting the beer in a stainless steel pressure vessel that allows the beer to carbonate during the first day of fermentation and hold its carbonation level after that. So there's no need to bottle or keg the beer and an enormous amount of work and weeks of waiting time is eliminated. It pours out of the brewery, fully carbonated, 7 days after you've added the ingredients.

this is actually pretty damn cool


Transferring beer from one tank to another oxidises the beer. The No.1 beer brand in the world has a 3 1/2 month shelf-life because of this. They believe you can taste it. Breweries and good homebrewers minimise this transferring as much as possible but they can't avoid it and the beer gets moved from tank to tank and into packaging and oxidised along the way. We on the other hand have developed a system that involves no transfers at all. We achieve this by having a bottle under the tank cone that allows us to collect all yeast and haze sediment during fermentation and after clarification, which then gets removed off the tank without the beer having to be moved. Therefore the clear beer coming out of the WilliamsWarn Personal Brewery has never been tranferred and is technically the freshest beer in the world.

If I put that in my garage everyone would wonder what rich guy I killed to get it.
