Took longer than some brews I've done

Yeah, I quit halfway through. The only machine I want is something to automatically clean up after me. I'll just wait until my son is old enough for that :)

This  I would pay for. I might even finish a survey about it!

I'd be happy to buy an automatic, electric hot liquor tank with a timer. Fill with water the day before and set it to turn on in the morning so strike water is ready and waiting for me. Even without a timer - get up, flip a switch, go make coffee.

Yes automation of tasks which require no skill or thought are the items I wouldn't mind having automation on.

Couldn't finish survey... lost interest.  Magically bottling my beer for me would be cool, but not actually brewing/fermenting it.  If I didn't want to do that part, I see no reason to brew my own.  I could buy beer at the store.  I thought about a machine like this for my craft beer loving friends who don't want to put in the effort to brew, but realized pretty quickly that they'd rather just buy the beer from their local bar or bottle shop than have to buy a (likely expensive) machine to make the beer at home.

These things exist, but when you look at the pricetag required to do such a thing you might rethink your happiness to buy it;)

For sure. That's why I gave a price I would be willing to pay in their survey.
