Show us your sculpture or brew rig

1.75 x 1.75 or 1 x 2 are you best bet
The stand looks great. Seriously.

Critiquing it, I would say the shelves are way too big for the kettles. Had it been built more within the actual needed dimension, 1 x 1 would have sufficed with only the cantilever needing braces.

But, it's built, it looks great and will do what it was intended to.

Here it is! I am just now after over 100 gallons brewed posting this picture. I get 80% efficiency on it.

Wow, that looks really tall. Great efficiency and nice rig!

Wouldn't want to stand under that HLT on a windy day

Needs outriggers or guy wires maybe.

I went from this

Since I live in a small lot house, senior living, I needed something that doesn't take up any precious space in the house or garage.

I love the ingenuity in this one. Way to go!

Yes, now you get to build a brew stand! Get busy!

Brewing a Moose Drool Clone today. Anyways about my rig, I am using a painters scaffolding until I build me a weldless wallace stand. I just upgraded to a bottom drain MLT, man this thing doesn't keep temp for crap compared to my old cooler. I am not sure if I want to do a flat brutus style, or a 1550 type rig.

Hmmm.... looks like a 1.3 BBL brewery

I like that Millsteg! looks like what I was planning on building. Do you by chance have the measurements for it?

I don't remember the exact measurements off the top of my head but I used 2 inch square tubing, the mounts for each keggle and mash tun are 18 inch squares with 6 inch spacing between the top two. The total height is 24 inches I believe and the lower boil kettle sits 8 inches off the ground.

That's just off the top of my head but I can get the measurements for you exactly if you want.

 

[krazydave]

That's close enough! Thanks!

 

[evandena]

Here's mine with updated electrical. Might add a hard line for the water, otherwise it's done.

I can post plans if anyone is interested.

Would love to see the plans if you have time to post....this will be my summer project up here in Ma!

 

[jumertens]

Here my upgrade from 5 to 10gal. The turkey fryer, former used as the boiler is now my HLT.

Sure, I'll try and get them up tonight

Here's a pic of my Brutus clone which I just finished building last week. I haven't tested it yet.

New three tier stand hurricane burners work great on the Natural gas lines! The lowest stand is designed as a portable. I have a low pressure regulator so I can use it with a propane bottle.

Another option is scrap yard angle iron. A friend of mine welded my three tier design together and the used angle iron is quite cheap. I think mine was 2" angle iron. Here are some pics of the stand.

 

[akthor]

Pretty much all finished. I have a some hoses to make and a few odds and ends.

Scrap aluminum from a screen room tear out. The wheats in heat!

Stay thirsty my friend.

Hi JU...

Do you have any plans to share? I am looking for a simple wood approach and yours definitely looks great.

I made this pretty much around the equippment I had. Bought 4x6, the wood boards and designed while building. I was surprised how good it turned out

 

[cadwaladr]

Here is mine so far. still need all of the fittings, burners and pumps

 

[FScholle]

Here's my simple BIAB system. I use two 2000 W heating elements run from two different circuits. Pot is 40 qt.







This is the control box. One element is on/off only, the other onr regulated by a PWM circuit.

Here's my "on the super cheap" rig.....

Pics show it mocked up. I thought I had some action pics but I guess I didn't take any. I know it's ugly but keep in mind this only cost me $6 to build!

I broke it in a couple of weeks ago and it helped to shave off about 2 hours from my brew day. It was so nice not to screw around with setting up and constant adjusting things.

After viewing all the cool rigs this winter I made it my spring project to upgrade mine.

Nothing fancy, but has made brewing easier and allows for expansion. i just roll it out of the garage, hook up the water and brew.

Nice rig I like the paint job. Quite the flame on that burner too!
