Thanks, all electric and lots to do still. Hope to have the first brew day by the end of the monthLars, great build. What do you still have to do to it? mount burners? or is it electric?
No Thor and Mag haven't shown up for a brew day yet. I was trying for the old factor cart look.Hey Lars, with a user name like that, you must have brewing buddies named Thor and Magnus, because that stand is totally medieval!:rockin:
My HERMS "Brew-B-Que". I can cook an 80# pig while brewing 12 gallons of fine beer! Starting to add automation...
Rauchbier anyone???

I'll be adding a pump for the HLT on the bottom before the next brew, the rest of it is all gravity fed. Broke it in with a nice American Brown Ale and hit all the targets pretty close, the FG was a little low because I thought I'd lose more to boil off with these new kettles but I guess I was wrong.
Here's mine

We have since added a wooden bottom and here it is with the keggle.

In the UK they often call boil kettles "coppers" for this reason. Even if they're no longer copper.

I prefer tri clover because they are super easy to use and clean and the don't leak. QD's (from what I hear) leak over time. The down side to tri clover is they are expensive. Every connection needs two ferrules a gasket and a clamp. And if you get Barbed ferrules The price only goes up. In my opinion they are worth ever penny.
That is sweet- details?

Unistrut. It's common with electrical panels and such.

Nice setup, love the coil... you make that yourself?
The stand isn't stainless. Just the burner shields are. Its just standard 16 gauge 2 inch square stock. I am sure this is the nicest this thing will ever look.
