Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of The Great American Micro-Brewery Co. The Beer Machine, Model 2000
Customer Review: Bought 3 of these. ALL broke, leaked, had major problems.
Summary: 1 Stars
There is only one good thing about this product. It introduces a lot of people to the joy of homebrewing. However, after purchasing 3 of these (thinking I would give them away as gifts), and then using all of them due to the ongoing array of problems I had, I decided NOT to pass this poor product on to people I care about. I have lost lots of beer because the gasket leaked; or because the pressure release valve failed, or because the carbonation valve stuck, etc. I have replaced each of these only to have them go out again, in mere weeks. Shipping for these very small items is $10 each time. Ridiculous.
The beer isn't bad. The concept is great. The product really sucks. Get a normal brewing kit. You'll make much better beer, enjoy the fact that everything works, and save yourself a lot of time and headaches. I wish I had paid attention to those who wrote negatively here. I would be hundreds of dollars ahead. I love brewing beer at home. But my miserable experience with three beer machines need not be your own. Get a Coopers or a kit from any homebrewing store. You WILL thank me. If only I had listened...
Description of The Great American Micro-Brewery Co. The Beer Machine, Model 2000
The Beer Machine is now improved with an enhanced construction and design. New to this at-home mini brewery is a custom pressure gauge that indicates brew quality, carbonation level and dispensing pressure. It's the easiest, foolproof way to make high-quality, great tasting beers at home in just 7 to 10 days. The brewing system is self-regulated to retain natural carbonation and comes with an auxiliary CO2 carbonation system that allows you to serve beer "on tap" just like you enjoy at your favorite pub. With the carbonation system, you can increase the pressure for dispensing so your brew has the perfect "head" with a fresh taste for up to six months. Included with your machine is Beer Mix - just add water and you'll have 2.6 gallons (or 28 full 12-oz. servings) of beer at a fraction of the cost of store-bought beer. You'll also receive pub-style handles which you can label and personalize. The overall unit is compact in size so it fits perfectly on your refrigerator shelf.Bar Tools & Glasses
