just a few pics to pique people's interest for a brew i'm doing saturday morning.

your cfc is already hinged to come out and away from the stand, why not add another hinge that allows you to extend the cfc up once it is away from the stand. so a horizantally moving hinge adn then a vertically moving hinge. does that make sense??

thanks!

nice! is that something you can get at HD or lowes?

mrrshotshot...how'd that duplicolor work out?

thanks for those thoughts on drawers and hangers. i guess that's why i didn't see a whole lot of info about that stuff. those that did it, probably removed them after their first brew day! thanks again guys....i'm continually impressed by this site. i absolutely learn a ton on here. i hope...

awesome...i'd be interested to see what you come up with. btw, i was on kickstarter a few months ago just looking around and i saw your brewing co. glad to see you guys made it! good luck! (and you should start a thread on your experience with starting a brewery!)

I'll have to look into this a little more, but I typically use my hose water to fill my HLT and then start heating it with my propane burner. (some people may be groaning at my hose water, :)) but if i could somehow tee off of my houses hot water heater (the copper tubes that supply my...

has anyone tried connecting their brewstand to a water heater or possibly buying a dedicated single point tankless water heater to get the water up to a higher temperature and then let the burners take it the rest of the way? should reduce time on brew day... thoughts??

thanks guys for the posts...i'm still surprised i haven't seen more drawers on peoples stands as well as an additional stand for a workspace...taking notes, etc. i've looked long and hard for someone who's added a workspace and haven't seen it, so if you all know of something, please post...

These strut builds are awesome. I just finished my frame a couple days ago and I'm slowly but surely adding all the pieces (pumps, pump switch, gas plumbing, etc.) For all the single tier builders out there, has anyone seen or done an extra section with a flat top for a "workstation" type...

i plan on putting a sight glass after the o2 in my set-up so that i can still see the bubbles and adjust the o2 input. i don't know if it will work, but i'm going to be trying it out eventually.

i can't give you an answer myself, but a great place to read about this is the draft beer quality manual. if i remember correctly, its like a 20 pg pdf and is pretty helpful in determining line length and temperature to serve kegged beer.

so if you do a longer fermentation (a year or so), the yeast is probably going to be dead....should i add more yeast before i bottle to guarantee that there's yeast to carbonate the sugar? if so, when do i add the yeast? won't that leave yeast sediment in the bottle when you drink it? does...

thanks for the help! i appreciate it!

where did you get your LG pump? do you have a website? i read that the march pumps are not self priming. doesn't that mean that if i let air run through it, it would ruin it eventually?

So how do you pump wort from the MLT to the BK? if it's your last runnings from the MLT to the BK how do you know when the wort level in the MLT is close to the bottom so you can turn off your pump? i think you would either let it run until air got in and then you've possibly ruined your...
