Strut seems pricey. $18 for a 10 ft section at lowes

Didn't truly realize the height until the casters went on. But honestly the pump moves all the liquid with ease. Even after brewing we pump water up top, toss some pbw in there, fire up the burner and recirculate. After a few more brews we may lower it a little but the beauty of the strut it...

Post some pics of the process home skillet!

I've seen those 10 tip burners and have always been impressed wth their flexibility. I got the 23 tips dirt cheap and with a gate valve can throttle them quite well too. Either way I say flame on!

I am sure you can find some straight out of the box SS at an electrical supply house. All I had available locally was the galv. SS. I know it tacked on a few bucks but I expect this beast to last us quite some time. I tried to special order SS from Lowes but they do not carry the 1 5/8" x 1 5/8"...

On my image album linked in my big post I have a breakdown of the parts, their origin and cost.

We used some 12 ga. copper ground wire and just wound it around a few times and pulled it all tight. It is kind of an odd rig but it will hold it pretty well. I will be looking for a more "permanent" solution as always.

No video unfortunately. I am kicking myself for at least not making a bunch of short vids of the assembly. When I went to rent the saw they were pushing those cheap china blades big time and I am glad I didnt use them. I did go all stainless steel on the stand, just the thought of building...

Well Sunday was our funday and we ended up cutting 7 of the 10' 12ga. strut sections and assembled everything. We rented a chop saw for the weekend and if you do, do yourself a favor and go to HD/Lowes and pick up their Dewalt saw blade specifically for stainless steel. There is even a...

Just a heads up to everyone. This Sunday we are going to assemble and take pics of the process regarding the use of the unistrut. So if you have any questions let us know and we will try to answer during the construction day.

Honestly it is non reactive and never cracked or gave any off flavors. If you are looking to salvage a keg then give it a shot, to the homers out there you are simply speaking out of your behind. Its $4 and if it doesnt work then so be it, worst case you are only out an extra $4 when you drop it...

Get some jb weld from lowes, they make a putty that you mix together like playdoh. I did a similar thing and it patched up like a charm.

Thanks all! 48 hrs later and its rolling along.

Brewed a big beer yesterday, 1.070. Kept the keggle in the garage covered due to frozen water spigots so no immersion chiller. We had started the us-05 rehydration that afternoon due to our expected finish time (oops). Aerated the wort with a drill and sterilized paint stir, pitched 1.5 packets...

UPS did not even post proper tracking but my order showed up in 3 days. I am more then pleased with their service and speed. These things are heavy duty to boot!

Thanks for the replies everyone. I run the home on a softener, was just curious if it was feasible to use this water. Looks like to the store I go for some water.

Got the test results in from Ward Labs (nice and convenient too), can anyone give me some thoughts on my water results. It was taken from an outside spigot after running for 10 min. Thanks everyone! pH 7.7 Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Est, ppm 337 Electrical Conductivity, mmho/cm 0.56...

1 5/8" x 1 5/8" strut. Lowes is delivering my 14 ga on Monday.
