    It's been discussed, but we concluded the legs might stick out. While hilarious, not the best conditions for smoking :fro: As for the gear, we're getting it from a plant that closed. A buddy of ours works there, and rather than the company paying to dispose of the leftovers, we graciously...

    Lol, thanks for all the concern guys, but we didn't waste good steel :cross: The tank you see was damaged in shipping, and the top section was bent out of round and there's a crack in the steel on the lip. The lid does not seal all around it, in fact, on one side there is a good 3/4" gap. We're...

    The lid, just so happens our 2" triclovers screw in perfectly to the hole on 55gal drum lids! The exaust assembly, another butterfly valve to dial in the flow of smoke. The angled pipe can be rotated to keep it out of the wind A little lid modification Some bolts to hold the grill...

    Ok, not a lot of work on the brewery itself, but we did find ourselves with an extra tank and some valves and fittings....so we decided to build ourselves a smoker :) This is in the style of the "ugly drum smokers" some of you might have seen out there. Started with one of the tanks that has...

    Ginger Bomb!

    My roommate was in the other room, and said it sounded like a gun going off. Then she saw some kind of red liquid slowly oozing out from under the pantry door. She was scared to open it :p

    Ginger Bomb!

    Pieces of ginger may have gotten stuck in the airlock, I had that problem with a blueberry melomel of mine.

    So THAT'S what that is! Honestly, my friend and partner just grabbed whatever was around, and didn't look too close to see what it was. Thanks for the info! Also, do you have much experience with the wilden pump? What psi does it normally run at? If this stuff is in the spec sheet, just tell me...

    Good looks on that, looks like that pump is an older model. Still, it is a sanitary pump, so it may work for us. Hopefully we can dial it back with valves, I think I read somewhere it can do 25 gallons a minute :p

    Solid steel oar, weighs a ton. Oh and a cat. Huge butterfly valves Another pump, I think this one reverses the flow of liquid. More research required So that's it for now, we're going to look up some specs and try to get a handle on what we're going to need and what we can sell...

    Concentric reducers with butterfly valves. Some of these parts will be used for the BBQ pit we're building, like the piece below ;) We've got a lot of cleaning in our future 1 hp 1750 rpm motor, thinking of using it for the grain mill Brand new pump, looks to be run with...

    It doesn't end there, oh no. Stoplight and a bullhorn because, you know, why not? A room full of triclover/camlock parts Ball valves make great beer coozies!
