I had this three tier brew stand built about three years ago. I have been using an igloo cooler for a mash tun for about 6 years now. When I had the stand made I knew a direct fire run was in the future. So on the middle tier... I had a burner and pump mount installed. The pump mount is great...

I have been checking out cooler builds for about 3 years now. I have always wanted a way to take my homebrew on the road. I picked up a 75qt cooler from Walmart a few weeks ago and went by my LHBS with it. I was at my local guys store early Saturday morning before anyone got there. After about...
