Very nice.

finally got some pictures. Finally no leaks :mug: HLT: Mash Tun: Boil Kettle: Next... I'm not 100% happy with the gas line, so I'm going to do a little more work on it. Then paint, then pump #2, then quick disconnects from Mcmaster carr. At that point, I should be...

I re- "tapped the keg":D No leaks, worked great. I did learn a lesson yesterday. I was getting low on teflon tape so I didn't put as much on the fittings. Two thermometers and 1 ball valve were leaking. Now I get to undo some of my work from last night and teflon it properly. So, what did...

I would recommend this site. I've ordered more than once and they have been great. They carry the nut your asking for in stainless. http://www.greatbargain.net/order/shop2.html

HAHAHA Yeah, I'm from Mississippi. :mug: We're dumb rednecks that can do just about anything, just don't ask us to spell or tell you how to do anything using proper english. One of the guys I work with on the railroad can't read or write. I learned this by asking a measurement and he...

Got my thermometers in today. I ordered 3 inch thermometers with 2.5 inch stem. I got 3- 5 inch thermometers 2 with 2.5 inch stem and 1 with 3 inch stem. They are freak'n huge. I should not have a problem seeing the temp. I promise pics are coming soon. I'm waiting to see if I can re tap...

Ran into a slight problem. Long story short, the guy who welded the couplings for me attached a barb fitting into one my boil kettle (where the ball valve goes) while it was still hot, then cooled it off real quick with water. I'm assuming he was doing a pressure test. So, the coupling shrunk...

The keg's are welded. There is still some cleaning I need to do to finish them and attach the ball valves and other parts. I will have all week to finish the kegs, and finish the propane plumbing. :rockin: Pics will be coming soon.:mug:

Got a lot of parts in for the brutus. I have the ball valves, sight glass, and thermometer bulkhead. I'm going to have some (maybe all) of them welded in next weekend. I also have made the plumbing for the propane, but I'm thinking about installing it in the front so I have easier access to...

I brewed a 10 gallon extract on my Brutus this past weekend for teach a friend to homebrew day. Man-o-man those banjo burners put out some heat. I was on uneven ground, and Leveling my casters worked great as well. I'm on the road for work, but plan to take the week after thanksgiving off...

:rockin: I like it. May be the route I take.

I haven't painted yet. I plan to prime it this week. I found this primer and I was going to try it out. It claims to resist up to 2000 degrees. I found it at the local AutoZone. If this is the same Rustoleum your talking about, them I'll probably hit it will grill paint after it's primed. I...

I got my Sabco false bottom and universal siphon in today. After brewing on my buddy's brew magic, I really wanted to incorporate that False bottom and siphon into my brutus ten. I was looking at it and there is no way possible to use the universal siphon with a weldless bulkhead. I guess...

I like it. I like it a lot.

Nice. Got a lot of ideas from the brutus pics page.

I started my Brutus build a few weeks back. :ban: I've cut and welded the frame, attached casters, mounted banjo burners, and tapped holes for the March pumps. The only difference in my frame is I attached the control arm to a hinge, so it's not in a static location. When I need it, it's there...

How is your build going?

Starting my brutus build as well. I've cut and prepped the steel. I plan to weld throughout this week. I weld for CN railroad, so I'm hoping to be finished within a day or so. I'm going to take my time and not rush through it. Good luck your your build.

I think I'm going to bottle 1/2 without Brett and 1/2 with. I'm curious how the Brett changes the beer. Thanks for the input.
