Hey gordie, very interesting read, inspiring even. Im hoping you could help me figure something out, i want to build a brewery similar in size to yours. I picked up a 120 gallon stainless water tank. Im thinking about cutting it up to build a kettle and MLT, ideally id like to get 53 gallons of finished beer out of it. So im thinking 70-75 g for the BK and 45-50 for the MLT. I may also just leave it at 120 gallons and find another vessle for the MLT so i can eventually scale even higher and for the time being have a huge kettle so i dont have to worry about boil overs. So basicly im wondering how you like your kettle size and if you have any advice in that area. Thanks

Such an inspiration here, with dedication and patience, I hope to someday share in this dream.

I got the chance to hang out at Healdsburg Beer Company a while back and shot a video of the brew day. Kevin is making great beers and having a fun time doing it. Check it out here: Healdsburg Beer Company Profile

Very inspiring; I want to do the same thing eventually.

just had one kevin's beers the other day at sprengers tap room... iirc correctly it was an ipa, but it was just a gorgeous dark color and over the top malt complexity... quickly became one of my faves - i'll be back there to drain down that keg.
