    Fermentation Chamber built with window A/C unit

    Do you have instructions on how you did this? I'm going to use an old 3 door Continental Reach-in Fridge that doesn't work. Since I don't have the tools or expertise to fix/replace the compressor an easy route to go may be to just cut a hole and use a window A/C.

    Wood Brutus 10

    I just bought the low pressure orifices. They were $7 a piece at Brewer's Hardware. (http://www.brewershardware.com/Valve-and-LPG-Orifice-for-BURN10.html) I read a lot of post about drilling them out. Since I didn't have the right drill bit I figured by the time purchased the bit and valves...

    My previous stand is wood too. No issues with scorching. My current design and old one utilizes an air gap and I find this works very well. The only concern I have is my banjo burners I have on order puts out quite a bit more heat. There's another guy on the forum with a wooden Brutus 10...

    Do you need an LP conversion kit...valves I'm finding on eBay are saying 3.5"WC...LP is 11"LP correct?

    I've seen it in Home depot and Lowes for the sheet steal. I'm planning on cutting hole in the bottom in the diameter of the burners and then attaching with L-brackets. The burners will be basically resting on the bottom...the holes are to allow for good air flow for combustion. The sheet...

    I plan on mounting the burners to the basin using L-brackets. That basin is some pretty stout stuff. I plan on using black iron pipe as the gas line which will also provide some support. I'll have to cut holes under the burners to allow for good air flow.

    @ Collinsbrew.... Sure, the overall dimensions are 66" long, 24" wide, and 24" tall. I used 2x4s for the framing. It's actually a little taller since it's on casters. I copied rhutter's design (https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/wood-frame-brutus-rims-project-171462/). He suggested making it a...

    I think what define a clone is cloning his process. Looking at RIMS systems and HERMS systems I like the direct fired mash. This is actually a clone of of another wood Brutus I found on HomeBrewTalk. I bought the plan's to Lonnie's system through BYO and loved the simplicity of the process...

    Wood Brutus 10

    Have been doing a lot of research through the beer forums...I really like this design. I have started building. Since my talent lies more in wood working rather than metal working I built the frame out of wood. I did find a few example of Wood Brutus 10s to follow. Yes I use propane and my...
