This video would be a good example of what your canning day might look like minus the wonderful automated canning line that this brewer got to use.

The hand cranker?  It was actually pretty fun to use.

I think they were listed at $699.

Wish I could have been there, but it's hard to justify when it's that trip or a pallet of kegs. :-\

They had another one that was $450 shipped with a bunch of cans.  I am pretty sure I remember that correctly.

Here's the price list from the show:  http://imgur.com/a/zRs8H

I picked up the same canner as Drew (the $699 model). 

Give Joel Andrew a call or email if you want to know more.
