First I would like to thank everyone that contributes to this site. I have received so much help and information and I am very happy that I am finally able to contribute to hopefully give others ideas on how they can use what I have towards their setup.
I already had the 2 tiers and I just had a buddy give me an old keg he had laying around and figured why not become more efficient by adding the top pot so I can heat up that water while I am in the mash phase. Plus, I don't have a pump so I was literally heating up the sparge water in the boil pot, draining into a cooler, and transferring it up with a pitcher after I sparged. So as you can see I've put in some heavy duty J-hooks and chain and there it hangs. I like that it's not permanent just in case it's in the way or I need to make sure I got out all the water.
It's a work in progress still because I need to attach the burner to the bottom of the upper keg via that metal you hang garage door motors with, add the 1/4 turn drain valve, plumb in the propane and do a few other things BUT I figured I would show everyone here how my 3-tiered setup looks on the cheap.
Let me know your thoughts or suggestions! :rockin:
