Best option for 2 tier stand for someone who doesn't weld

humann_brewing · Mar 24, 2010

I am looking to get my brewstand built but am having difficulties figuring out what to do for the stand.

Is there anything that I could get locally put put one together or a structure to start from? I want to go with steel and not wood. I saw earlier a scaffolding mentioned and that looked nice but I also want to option to go natural gas as that is what I would like to do.

So what do ya have?

You're best bet is to find a welder on craigslist. With you being from Fresno, I am sure there are tons. I got 5 quote to build a nice single tier stand from $150-$300 for the welding. I ended up going with someone fort $200 to build the stand and also get me my steel at wholesale costs for $50 more.

I have an erector set-style stand that was made by Harpo. It is really nice, shippable, and can be set up in 1 or 2 level configuration.

He has one that has burner mounting, or flat tiers for electric (like mine).

He might be able to help you figure out something that would work.

Here is what i do for my second tier for my system. Its flat aluminum that i welded together and put round pins through it to hold it in place. I drilled holes in the keg top so the brace would pin in place. I know you said no welding but you can do it with a propane torch and some of these aluminum rods pretty easy. http://www.alumiweld.com/

what would you use for the corners and other things like the burner holder and such?

There's always this option complete with burners. Can be adapted for a 3 tier as well.

That is one option I am considering but for that price, I am half way to a built single tier, granted I need the burners and one more pump.

Super strut is all bolt together stuff and super stout. I built a mini conveyor dryer for my mobile screen printing operation out of it.
