Yuri's Brew Yurt (Hut)

**Yuri_Rage** · 03-08-2009, 12:53 AM

It's about 5 months behind the timeline I envisioned, but I FINALLY got started on the brew hut! The walls are framed. Sheathing and rafters are on tomorrow's schedule.

I plan on running electricity to it, insulating it well, and drywalling/tiling the interior. I have a decent window A/C to cool it. Plumbing is likely beyond my budget. It's not quite Ed's palace, but it's mine, and I can't wait to finish it!

Sweet, another thing for me to be jealous about around here!

Very cool. How big is it? Looks like 10x10 or 10x12 to me

that's going to be a sweet set-up

It's 12'x12'. I was a little surprised at how much that slab appeared to "grow" when I put 8' walls on it!

That is gonna be kick ass!!!! I can't wait to move so I can do the same thing.

When is the first Hell Rio brew down?

I envy you guys... I live in a tiny apartment.

Why do you need plumbing? It looks like you could just drag a garden hose over there. Just tap into your perimeter drain and you are set.

Today's progress:

The door is partially blocked to keep the dog out. With the sinus infection/cold that I have, building trusses today turned out to be a bit over-ambitious. There's always next weekend...

With any luck, the inaugural brew will be sometime this summer.

Oh Man that's purty! Please keep posting pics!

Make sure to put a good lock on the door. The last thing you want is the neighbourhood delinquents to get wind of a bunch of beer locked up in a lonely shed in your backyard. Maybe a beer alarm...
