Want to Buy: 5 or 10 gallon cooler

Looking to purchase a 10 or 5 gallon rubbermaid/igloo/gatorade cooler. A circular one with a drain spout at the bottom.

Would prefer a 10 gallon, but open to other sizes in between.

Yeah, and you can be relatively sure no one has whizzed in them.

Is there still a cooler made in America? Is Coleman still around Wichita? or relocated to Shanghai?

Last I knew Coleman was still making them in the Wichita plant. A guy here made some heavy assed machine tables for them a year or two back.

Course I'm not sure American made means sterile since Jeffrey Dahmer worked in a candy factory and that Wichita guy who pokes rottweilers likely worked somewhere.

Eww!

Really? You're kidding me!

I was kind of hoping someone had a used one they had sitting in their garage they wanted to get rid of for cheaper than I could get retail.

And every opportunity I can avoid going to Wal-Mart, I'll take in a minute.

It would be for home brewing beer. The amount of bleach I use on a normal basis for sterilization makes that moot.

What kind of brew? Back after prohibition ended my dad said home brewers would send samples to the state for a safety analysis. He said one guy from around here got his sample sent to the wrong place and they told him his horse had urinary infection.

If you need a taste tester for that home brew I need a job.

I brew whatever style I'm in the mood for. Pale Ale, Red, Stout, Porter, some belgian styles.

I've thought about trying home brewing. I'm partial to IPA's, but like a wide variety.

My husband has been brewing his own for the last year. It's really pretty easy (if you like that kind of thing), but stinks up the house.

Why go thru the trouble of brewing your own when you can get the quality of Keystone Light at Walmart prices?

Water from my tap is probably better tasting not to mention stronger.

my husband would like to start, and this is one reason I am opposed to it.

Ugh... it's bad. The first time he brewed some was this time last year, so we couldn't even open up the house to air out. Peeeeeee-yew!


He gets most of his supplies in KC. There's a little place in Topeka that he gets some of the stuff from, too.

Well maybe I need to move to your town cause I can get kinda drunk after a case and a half or so of Keystone Light.

Yeah, I expect I'd feel a buzz on that too. I'm getting to be a lightweight in my old age. LOL

luckily he's been busy enough with all the little house updating projects that he hasn't mentioned it lately. But it did come up once or twice when he first saw the unfinished portion of our basement. I am sure eventually he will run out of things to do and start tinkering with brew!

ale and vino? on n kansas?

That's the place.

bought wine and champagne yeast from them

Last time I was in there, the shelves were almost bare. The guy was talking about going out of business... hasn't happened yet, that was about a year ago.

sad deal
