    My Brew Rig build

    Got the casters put on and the underside sanded, primed, and painted. After this picture was taken I got the rest of it sanded, primed, and painted as well. All except the top where the heat will be. This weekend I'll paint the top with high temperature paint and will do a "cure" by...

    My Brew Rig build

    I want to order the burners today. I'm thinking LP BG-14's for the HLT and the BK. Any other suggestions before I do? Will the BG-14 converted to LP be enough to get a good boil on a 10 gallon batch? Also... Decided to skip the RIMS and go HERMS which should only require two burners the way...

    My Brew Rig build

    Ya I'll post a better shot tomorrow. Gonna drill and mount the casters so I can stop having to lug this thing around. If only I could get a day over 0 degrees I'd be more motivated to get something done...

    My Brew Rig build

    Ah I see. I think I didn't communicate it very well. I was asking him if he knew anyone that could weld stainless steel and he didn't. He did however have 2" steel tubing lying around (not stainless) and that is what he used. My reasoning for painting it was to hide the spots that were he had...

    My Brew Rig build

    I am going to do heat shields just haven't got them on there yet. This was a kind of spur of the moment build. (Didn't expect someone to say they'd do it for you and deliver just because they're bored). I was going to use the Rustoleum that's rated up to 2000 degrees. I've read on a few posts...

    My Brew Rig build

    I'm using 60 quart aluminum. Each square has an ID of 21". The angled pieces measure 16" square. The kettles have a 17" bottom. I built the design with the intention that I will one day go with 1/2 bbl pots and don't want to upgrade the frame.

    My Brew Rig build

    Why? I prefer the look of it painted over bare metal.

    My Brew Rig build

    I know there are about a million of these threads on here but I needed some place to track my build for my sake as well as ask questions if they arise. I was in the process of designing my single tier brew stand and got to talking with a buddy about if he knew anyone that could weld stainless...

    Keg Carbing a Wine?

    I keg carb my apfelwein if you wanna call that wine. In fact, I won't drink it any other way. I usually put it in a champagne bottle and use cages to make sure there's no bottle bombs or rocket corks and I've never had a problem. I've also done this with skeeter pee but never with a grape...

    60 Quart Aluminum Thunder Group Pot

    Does anyone have the dimensions for this pot? I can't find anything consistent online. I believe it's 16" but am not sure.

    SMaSH - Maris Otter/Fuggles

    I just made a MO SMaSH but used Cascade. That would definitely give you the fruity aromatics. Also, I upped to 10 pounds of MO and happy I did otherwise it would have been way out of balance leaning on the hops. I did a 1 oz at 60 min skipped the 25 min and did a 1 oz addition at 5 min with...

    Maybe look at SMaSH beers? That's what I'm doing now to really learn each malt and hop and how they play out in a finished product. Also, sounds like you might like the Belgian Witbier kit from Brewer's Best

    South Dakota Brewers

    Idk on kits for that size. I would just look up in the recipe database and scale em back to 2/5 or 3/5 depending on what you're looking for. Also use a smaller fermenter to minimize head space. Can't you brew 5g batches and store some? I like to take 12-20 bottles and store em to see how well...
