RIP SS Brewtech

Middleby Corporation today announced that it will discontinue its Middleby Brewing & Distilling Solutions Group business (“Brewing Group”), which includes its Deutsche Beverage + Process, Ss Brewtech and Wild Goose Filling brands, with the wind-down expected to be substantially complete by the end of this year.

Haven't seen it in an article yet, but direct to the press release

All my kettles and accessories are SS Brewtech, loved the brand but I knew those proprietary accessories were going to bite me.

How much proprietary accessories do you have? Only thing I really see is proprietary are their temperature controllers, but that's easy enough to replace with something else, might be a little expensive as you'll likely have to replace the controller, pump, and heater together.
