Does anyone have (plans, pics, etc) for a free standing brewery that would fit, say on a 10' x 18' piece of ground ?
Thanks

I got 2 small construction scaffolds from Home Depot @ $99 each (that seemed like about what I would pay for a dedicated brew stand). They are 4' long and about 2' wide. And put a 20 lb. LPG tank, turkey fryer and a 9 gal. pot on the top shelf of the first scaffold. Then 2 each 1"x8"s x 2' long run from the first scaffold to the second at mid level hold my MLT. The second scaffold has a banjo burner & my boil pot on the lowest level. This setup allows a gravity flow all the way to the fermenter. It takes up more room than a permanent setup but allows me to use the scaffolds for other purposes. Also the scaffolds fold up so I can store them in a relatively small foot print and they have lockable wheels so I can move them around if I want or need to.
The entire setup would be about 10' long. And I did stack some more lumber on the 1'x8's to get the MLT at just the right height for my boil pot.

There are some more pics here.

Jaybird said:check out my gallery I built a gravity /pump system that you can brew 24 gal in an easy 8 hour brew day and it fits and brews in my garage with a tippy tun.
think electric and your well on your way.
Good luck
pm me if you want some 411 on the system

I work for a CO. that likes to through away alot of good stuff. I just had to get a scrap pass for it and then spend hours and hours cleaning it up to make it useable. the HLT is electric and works KILLER, I HIGHLY recomend doing electric for the HLT.ScubaSteve said:Jaybird-
Where'd you score those stainless sections of pipe? I imagine all those stainless tees, valves, etc. weren't cheap. I'm in the R&D phase of building my rig and am trying to decide what kind of piping and fittings I'll use.
