i saw this last month in popular science, but it wasn't online for a while. this (nearly) all-in-one brewery was built by [john carnett]. it does everything but requires malt extract for now. it boils wort, cools it for fermenting, delivers the brew to the kegs and most interestingly to me - uses cold plate cooling to cool the beer just before it exits the tap. i'm pretty sure they're using peltier junctions, but i'd like to know for sure. props to [nate] for inadvertently reminding me of the thing when he sent in this effort to brew beer inside a pumpkin!

Amazing. What temp is his fermentation? How long does he let it ferment? Does it do a secondary fermentation or take it straight from there? A really traditional feel and gentle brewing.
