My beer/spirits setup

This is the forum for me.. just sharing a pic of what I have setup at the moment.. 2 things I love are Chilli and Beer - I won't tell you about my other herbal inflictions.

I usually just use coopers kits as I don't care much for the all grain process (although I can appreciate the results) - currently have a couple of draughts and a lager on the go and experimenting with Galaxy hops (yummo) and Amarillo hops with a couple. I also experiment with mixtures of dextrose/corn sugar and light malt sugars.
Have a Keg King double 19l keg fridge w/ tap and so don't bottle many beers only a few from each brew.
Also have a Turbo500 still for the harder stuff - works a treat and run a fishtank pump with the big blue drum full of water to recycle water - Can put through one wash a day to let it cool down. Get about 10L of 40% from a single wash (8KG sugar).

Heres a couple of pics..

i love those green kegs, is that a standard keg in Australia? never seen a keg like that.

nice still as well how many watts?
 
Thanks, the green kegs are German I think and are not standard, they are stainless but are covered in a hard rubber. These ones are damaged (handles broken) Thats why I have them. I don't use them often for beer as I prefer to use the 19L cornelius kegs.
The still is 2000W .. link below for the manufacturer.

hehe no we are 240v.. I have a large solar system also but on the grid.. so may counter act just a smidgy off.
 
Nice mate, just got into all grain myself and have done a few runs with mixed results.
As for the still i don't own a ultra pure still lol i also don't make moonshine!

I think i also do not indulge in other herbs :D
