Ok I originally planned on converting one of my basement rooms into a brew room. It was going to be more money than I was willing to spend. So when I was nearly ready to give up I ran into a discussion of brew hardware's Steam Slayer and realized it would take a lot less money to convert my existing bar into a brew bar. I'm to the point where it is functional so I thought I'd share some progress and get some input. With the scale I brew at the small space should work great. I am going to brew once a week (or so) until I get things ironed out then slow back down. Currently in the fermenter is Quest (a long story about a mis-documented recipe for my wedding beer). In the fridge (that still needs work) is a Bohemian pils we used to test the steam slayers management of steam and DMS. Short story it worked great.
At this point we still have a ways to go with priority being given to lighting, spill protection and water system mounting. Not in the pictures is the cleaning station I have around the corner from the brew area (aka a large shower with a special water system).
One last note, I'd back up more to get a better shot but no point in exposing the mess..... I did share a picture of the brew day mess just so you won't think I'm done.
Thanks in advance for any input
