Another new brewstand..
2 Attachment(s)
Well here's my plan. A couple jpg's and the sketchup file.
I should be getting the steel this weekend or early next week. I'll be using two bg14's and a 6 inch bg12 clone. The pics and sketchup just show 14's. Future improvements will be automation, and eventually "flex-fuel", having the option run electric or propane depending on where I'm located. Also going 1.25", vs the 2" shown. I just modified an existing sketchup brewstand (Bobby's I believe) and didn't want to spend time changing all the pipes. Overall dimensions will be the same. I can't upload the sketch, I'll edit in a few with a link.. <this should work> http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=dd6d71853ccb839bcbbf41df7a73c35d |
Looks good my only concern would be that the lowest vessel will not work with the pumps the way it is setup now.

Definitely wasn't my sketch file. I wonder what the author's intent was with having the low tier in the middle. It would work just fine in the up up down config like the brewmagic. I also agree that the pump needs to be lower than the lowest vessel.

The center down is more visual than functional probably, tho I think it will work out the same. I'm cursed with a symetrical mind (and maybe some OCD)and just don't like the look of the up up down config. If it is totally horrible to brew on, adding the 2 removed top sections would not be that difficult, and I'd have the original single tier. |
Might be overkill, but strength-wise it would be good to have a brace across the back in the middle section. Help keep it from taco-ing. The steel is likely plenty oversized though, making it unnecessary.

Hey--Just saw you're from Montrose. I grew up there.
Cheers. |
