Hey guys,
I have found some great info on this site. Thanks. I have done 4 extract batches and have another 2 or 3 lined up but after that I would like to go all grain. I currently have the following:
-20 quart SS pot
-2 6.5 gallon fermentation buckets
-1 5 gallon better bottle
-1 Bottling Bucket
-1 Bayou Classic SP10 High Pressure Outdoor Gas Cooker
I realize I am going to need a bigger pot and other equipment to get started. I figure I should buy everything to do 10 gallon batches because I will probably get there at some point. Could you guys let me know what I am going to need. I am thinking of 3 tier system considering I have no skills with putting together something electric or even with pumps.
I think I need:
-15 Gallon HLT
-15 Gallon MLT (Cooler and will find directions on the this site on how to build)
-15 Gallon Brewing Kettle
-2 Burners (I think the one I have will work 185,000 BTUs 14 inch diameter)
-Wort Chiller (What size?)
Possibly a grain mill.
Am I missing anything? Do I have the right sizes? Also I am not good with welding, I should say I have never done it, so what would you recommend for the HLT and BK? I see these Keggles but I just don't think I could make one if I find a few kegs. Thanks for your help
