    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    The target market for this particular product is vast. From schools to homebrewers and Commercial implementations. In the next 10 years I plan to open a brewery that is automated on a much larger scale then half a barrel. For a large company that already Brews beer, adjusting a recipe or to...

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    This is still in the beta stage and I haven't even got to brew on the system yet. It's been in development for around 2 years and is finally coming to fruition. Once the system is fully up and running an operational many documentaries will be posted on YouTube. To date I have not been able to...

    So there are 3 grain silos that will hold 150 lb of grain each. There is an auger attached to the bottom of each Silo that carries the grain inside my Brewing facility. Once inside it is metered and wait and then sent to the mill for processing. This run is only about 8 feet or so. From the...

    Thank you for your input, there has been many months of contemplation on different features and sensors. I think one of the coolest aspects of the system is the inline refractometer that has temperature compensation. The refractometer made by Atago offers really nice advantages to the Brewing...

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    Because most of our beer is consumed rather abruptly, we find the kegging beer it's the most effective way to dispense without introducing excess oxygen or light. A commercial refrigerator like the true gdm-12 is a great refrigerator because there are no condensing tubes in the walls of the...

    Yes exactly! There are many questions to be asked and answers to be found. Once the system is up and running series of test can be performed to figure out exactly the answer to the questions. Beer backed by science!

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    Yes it is. Thank you for your feedback. I've spent many years saving up the money for this crazy endeavor. I've written down the list of everything I hate about brewing beer at home and this is my solution to making it turn into everything I love.

    Currently, no. It is still months away from Brewing its first beer. Sometime early May or late April a live YouTube broadcast of its maiden voyage will be recorded. The link will be posted when the time comes.

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    That is a very good question. So in a way yes it does. The system will be fully automated including grain management and grain disposal. After the system is done brewing a beer the spent grain is transferred automatically to a biodigester that reefer men's the spent grain and cellulose to...

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    Yes many people have mentioned this, I understand it takes the art out of brewing beer. The project was not designed to have an artistic side to it. The purpose of the project is to brew really good beer and figure out exactly why. I want to know what 1 degree or 1 minute longer does to a beer...

    This is the influent Water Management setup. You simply type in how much water you want in and the flowmeter meters a precise amount within about half an ounce in 5 gallons accuracy. There's also safety timers and limit switches to prevent unforeseen incidences.

    The most expensive way to Homebrew

    Yes this product is definitely not for the typical home Brewer. This project started as a concept to figure out exactly what makes a good beer good and a bad beer bad. I needed to remove all human error factors and variables from the equation and document everything in a database. Due to the...
