* '''5 Gallon Mash Lautering Tun''' for masochism and all-grain batches [[http://www.homebrewtalk.com/wiki/index.php/Converting_a_cooler_to_a_mash_tun#Cylindrical|Parts list]], total cost ~$40. Make sure to check out [[http://www.thescrewybrewer.com/2010/12/screwys-5-gallon-mash-tun.html|a better guide to the actual construction]].
* 2 '''1 Gallon Glass Jug''' for minibatches or starters
* 2 '''64oz Glass Jug''' (Rogue Dead Guy Ale Jug) for starters
- * '''Cooling system''' A pair of plant water drainage trays, tshirts, and a box fan... not as nice as a basement, but it actually works pretty well.
* '''Airlock''' enough for all fermentors and one starter jug (with stoppers for the carboys)

* '''Igloo Lunchbox Cooler''' The top being uninsulated turned out to be a serious problem: the cooler lost around 40⁰F within 30 minutes. It turns out, however, that a metal pot in the 170⁰F oven maintained around 160⁰F and did not get too hot after all.
* '''[[http://www.smart-pond.com/products/60/Move|Smartpond 155GPH Submersible Pump]]''' for circulating ice water through the wort chiller. Low flow rate (not surprising), and broke after two uses. Garbage.
