Default My rig

Hi I'm new to brewing in fact I've never brewed before.. but I joined a club and watched a guy brew and said to myself I've got to do this so I made this stuff.

I have a hard time believing this is your first rig...

Anthony I'm a custom car builder so fabrication is the easy part...making good beer will be the hard part for me.

Besides I have no reason to lie.

I would keep a close eye on that sparge arm. Make sure that you don't get it clogged up during recirculation. (If you are brewing this way.) I have the same arm and love it but only use it for sparging. I have a copper hoop with larger holes for recirculation.

That's a dead sexy rig but since you you say you do custom cars I want something like that in the back of a 52' Ford pick up.
