On one hand it makes far more straightforward and less timeconsuming, which is obviously a bonus.
But isn't that interaction with the brew (not to mention the love and care we all feel for the beer as we make it ) half of what making homebrewing is all about?
It's really the beermaking equivalent of a bread machine. Not that I make my own bread, but if I did I like to think I would do it from scratch rather than just dump the ingredients in a machine and get bread a few hours later. Having worked in bakeries there's something about working with the dough that's, well, special.
So if you want easy beer, get a Braumeister; if you want to be passionate about homebrewing, don't!
Just my thoughts. Maybe I've romanticised homebrewing too much ...
Cheers,
Oliver
