Default BREWtality

Well.....here she is. My 3-tier, gravity fed brew sculpture named BREWtality. She works great. Have 4 batches through her and still dialing in the efficiency. Be sure to check out the keggle mounting system....pretty good idea if I do say so myself.

Really though, what do you guys think of my rig?
I am especially proud of the keggle mounting system. They are far more secure than shelves and cut the weight of the overall system down considerably.

the keggle mounting system looks like a great way to go. I just hope it's not too wobbly at the base with all that stress on one joint, but then, I don't know much about how strong a weld can be. If It's working for you that's all that matters (I still don't have any such sculpture). cheers.

What a piece of sh!t that thing is. hehe... j/k. I like it. Multi-tier wasn't for me, but I do appreciate the simplicity of gravity and the smaller horizontal footprint. Wortmonger did a similar mount for his kegs but I think he just used bolts.
