    My Brewtroller Build

    First I would like to apologize to all of you for not documenting my build all the way through as I had originally intended. Lots of life's issues have taken time away and I simply just worked on the brewery when I could. Here are some pictures of my completed build. There are 2 things still...

    VERY fast ferment. Problem?

    I did a fairly high gravity(1.090 OG) on top of the yeast from an IPA (1.070 OG). The batch took off like gangbusters and now 60 hours later, it is at 1.014. Tastes really good but I was wondering if the fast ferment is going to cause any issues. TIA

    My Brewtroller Build

    Pre-lunch time progress today. I fabbed the tilting bracket for the control box and mocked it up. As you can see, I am using removable pins to hold the control panel on the swing out arm.

    My Brewtroller Build

    I wish I could take credit for the burner mounts but that isn't my design. I got the idea from nickstek (sp) on another build page. I loved the design so I used btu dimensions and his idea.

    My Brewtroller Build

    No, not stainless. Just plain old mild steel. It's just not the black stuff. I was super pleased with the material, the cost, and the service at the supplier. 93 bucks for 44 feet. Great deal!

    My Brewtroller Build

    I have turned the pump heads 180 degrees as suggested. I started with black heart brewery flow schematic and modified them for my needs. My chilling will be done in the boil kettle with a coil installed as in the hlt with cooling water running through it. I also eliminated heating strike...

    My Brewtroller Build

    Have not done a cost analysis. PIDs were never really an option for me for what I wanted to do. I was going back and forth between BT and the BCS. I love the BCS web ui but the BT seemed to have a larger forum presence and this being my first build of anything like this, the support knowledge on...

    My Brewtroller Build

    Well, here is the beginnings of my Brewtroller, Gas Fired, HERMS system. I have been looking on this site for ideas and the general idea for my stand came from Nickstek (I think that is the spelling). Great design and I loved the burner brackets so I went with it. I went with the same...

    Brewtroller cabling question

    I see that peeople generally use the three pin type connectors for their valves, sensors, etc. Instead of buying those and having to cut several holes for them in my control panel, I was looking into using D-SUB connectors but I'm not sure if it would be feasible (sp). Can anyone tell me if i...
