Got it, thank you

So I miscalculated my primary fermentation time. I'm leaving Wednesday for a little over 2 weeks. The primary fermentation is just winding down getting a bubble in the airlock about every 30 seconds. The secondary includes a 5-7 day dry hop. So I was thinking about cold crashing, racking into...

Thank you

There'll be a split unit in that room and one in the game room area. Thank you, and yes it gets pretty hot in Southern Oregon

I'll eventually build a keezer, but that'll be in the main room. I have a kegerator that I built from a mini fridge, and will start off with that.

Flushot my days in the kitchen are numbered. My wife hates it, so drain or not I'm being kicked out of the kitchen sooner or later. However I am going with the drain.

The contractor and I have been talking a lot this week about the brew room. Yes I'm doing the drain and even if I wasn't I'd still build the brewing and processing room. I'm laying out what I want and where I want it right now. There'll be 2 refrigerators, one is my temp controlled fermentation...

Thanks Sibelman

Thanks Mashdar

Max thank you. You are correct lots of good used sinks and tables on market place

You're a great tyer! Thanks for sharing. I will have a fly tying station next to my desk. I'm more of a simple tyer, and if it takes more than 10 minutes to tie I buy it. However, I work part time at a fly shop so I get a good discount.

Is that an Atlantic Salmon fly for your avatar there? I'm a west coast steelhead and chinook fly fisherman.

Whiskey yes it's not too late for a floor drain, and I love the idea. Sibelman thanks for the sink and fan ideas and links. Shoengine I'm on a city sewer system. I appreciate all of these ideas, especially since I've only been brewing for a few years.
