My Basement Electric Brewery

[Tobor_8thMan]

Only took a few years to go from an unfinished basement to what's shown in the photo. Had professionals finish the basement and build the bar. I built the electric brewery.

Up next is a DIY wine glass rack (that's why there is a piece of paper taped to the left of the brewery window. Trying to get a placement idea for my Raspberry Pints tap list monitor).

Lots of sports items to hang on the walls, etc.

Hmm... I see I made a typo in the Vanilla Cream Ale description. Need to fix.

An invitation to anyone in the Northern Virginia area stop by for a homebrew.

Counterflow wort chillers are amazing. I pre-chill (saving bags of ice from the fridge) the water going into the counterflow chiller. I can cool from boiling (212F) to ale yeast temps in about 12 minutes.

Unsure why image is sideways as the image is correctly aligned.

Can take the temp to lager yeast temps if I simply slow down the wort rate.

Not very "sexy", but needed clean up area.

Fast Kitchen Hood.

Learn from my mistake and get baffles. Why? Condensate collects on the top flat surface and drips back down. No fun. Baffles would have directed the condensate into the gutters on the sides.

Some original construction photos. At the time I was thinking "Oh, no. What have I done."
