25ltr Pail
2 hydrometers
bottle brush ( new )
and...( drum roll please..)
a Super Automatica.
all this for $10.

Was doing the grocery shopping yesterday at my local Woolies and noticed they had Cooper's Bavarian Lager on special for $4.75 a can...no, thats not a typo...$4.75 a can!!!
Only problem was some bugger got in before me and cleaned them out of their stock...oh well someone grabbed a great bargin

I believe the lucky Mr Glass is referring to a benchtop bottle capper which retail at about $50-60.
I wish my missus was as homebrew savvy.
Kudos Mr Glass (or is that yardie).
Jay.

If some one can explain how that is anywhere close to automatic I will be eternally in their debt, let alone superautomatic

DD, my northern brother, "Super Automatica" is Italian for "needs a strong arm and a steady eye". A bit like riding the pony, I guess.
What IS the pony's name, by the way?
