Have enjoyed 4 summers in chandler rebuilding and building Intel facilities, not a lot of fun working outdoors when it is 118 degrees, even less when you have to put on a saranex chemical suit above 100 degrees F. Looks I will be back to springerville in october for a week or two to get a couple people started on a steam turbine job then I hope to head back to oregon again. Here are a few shots of the system taken after the wet testing today. http://picasaweb.google.com/kevin.ladue/WetTestProgressPhotoS Still have to make false bottom for mash tun, screened pickup tube for boil kettle, vapor hood and exhaust system for boil kettle, and put together the water chillers, pump and 50L keg for the glycol cooling system.

Here are a couple shots of the screw conveyor system, internal screw is 1/4" copper over 1-1/4" copper, outer is 2" Od stainless, drive is 1/8 Hp TEFC motor with 1" drive and 4" driven pulleys. http://picasaweb.google.com/kevin.ladue/ScrewConveyor/photo#5188941875307268178

that looks nice. the only thing I would change is to move the rust to the outside of the mash tun.

That is yeast residue left on inside of keg when it was opened, it will come off during caustic cleaning after internal parts are finished. Outside gets 1" of insulation and 20Gauge SS skin with latches to faciltate removal of jacket for cleaning.
