   * '''Immersion Wort Chiller'''. Just a basic coiled copper tubing gadget.
   * '''[[http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_792_792|Northern Tool Submersible Pump]]''' For circulating ice water through the immersion chiller in an attempt to save water. Cost about the same as the pond pump that didn't work, but a quick test was promising--the flow rate through the wort chiller looked as high as with the garden faucet. As of 2011-06-09 we have successfully cooled around 7 brews with the pump and it has yet to break--we can cool a five gallon batch to 74F in ~15 minutes using only 20 gallons of water and eight frozen 2L soda bottles. --(If it doesn't break in six more months)--it's 2012-03-20 and the pump has survived a '''lot''' of batches so I think I can recommend it.
   * '''48" Stirring Spoon''' That's what she said
+  * '''Mash Paddle''' (spoon was adequate for 5 gal batches, but in a rectangular cooler / 10 gal batch it was hard to get all of the clumps out -- the LHBS sells a paddle for $5 made of the same material as the spoon so it's below my threshold for building my own from wood -- ClintonEbadi <<DateTime(2012-05-04T18:55:37Z)>>)

Really useful for filling buckets, using a jet bottle washer, getting a faster water flow for filling things (pasta pots, watering cans, ...).
   * '''Bucket Filler'''. Homemade hose end with siphon tubing attached to make filling five gallons of water a lot less of a pain in the ass.
