I volunteer to be the 70 Mph brewer. We can make a new brewery name and call it "Highway 40 Ales." A illustration of some "mad brewer" with long hair flying in the wind brewing on the trailer would be the label. Yeah we would make millions assuming we lived to tell about it.

olllllo you missed trailer trash. I'm looking forward to the next brew where you will end up in the porno. What good is it without money shots?

Yea, I knew I was gonna regret being in this thread.
or at least a BBQ. I could just see this being used at a tail gate party.
Looks like the trailer needs some stainless tube for the stationary gas, water and wort plumbing, PFA tubing for the moving sections, and swagelok fittings to connect things. A couple solenoid valves, honeywell S8610's, pilot burners, and a box to hide the electrical components would be nice to have, saves hair on your arms when you do not have to reach in and light the burners off with a gas match. Sometimes working in instrumentation construction has advanatges when you work with the tubing materials and sympathetic electricians when building new brewing systems.

Denny, BBQ/smoker is planned. So is parking next to somebody with a big screen at a tailgate party.
kladue, I would love to see what you visualize. The BATF is planning a meet at Papagos next Thursday around 6ish. Hope you stop by.

Should be able to make it to Papagos, in the mean time will start pulling together the parts and pieces for the trailer plumbing, if you want to take the time you could find most of the control components on ebay, or if time is a factor you can purchase them directly from various vendors. If you need part numbers I can pull together part numbers and links for the components you will need for the ignition and control system. As to wiring let me see what is available from the electrical contractor I am working with before you purchase anything, might be some nice suprises there.

Very sweet design.......has anyone said, "You Suck!"?
OP

I believe that would be 19. Must be getting close to nomination for the 2009 HBT "you suck" awards.
Very nice... and a bbq, looks like a rolling party to me!
OH! and You Suck! Is definitely appropriate after seeing this.

When all else is done I think there will room for a couple faucets on the rail feed by a jockey box stashed underneath. We shall see. I'm pretty sure this is the last rig I will build because it has plenty of expansion capabilities.

Now all you need is a little Honda generator and a big water tank and you can go anywhere and do it!
OP

I have the generator but water would be too heavy to carry more than 25 gallons or so.

Any plans for a canopy? That thing is gonna be 250 degrees in the summer here!
Is there a Big Brew in Phx? That thing is made for it!
Looks great/you suck!

Sorry...meant to revisit this thread sooner to say good job. I dig the tippy-dumps!

I know where else can you brew in the summer without heating your strike water. Yes I do want to get a canopy, the last rig had umbrella stands which I couldn't do without. There are several clubs that do large group brews. The last large group I went to had over 20 brewers that brewed. The is going to be another large brew May 3 that I plan on attending. for info on that I would pm wild.

I can't claim credit for something that Bobby_M thought of. I will claim being the builder and user of them though.
Am I the last to say "you suck!"
Dude that thing is BAD A$$!
nice job
when is the first brew?

Are there degrees in sucking? You should have several because you suck.

I plan on a wet run next weekend. There are still a few things to add. When you build with scrap there is a lot of material prep.

Something like this HERE can be relatively inexpensive and can dissasembled to fit on the trailer, maybe you could toss a couple of these on the on the canopy and be totally self sufficient
I will look into the May 3rd event thanks for the heads up.

Today's upgrades. I finished the hop stopper designed by Bobby_M and installed it. I have high hopes that this will work with 50-70% pellet.
Next I started digging through "the garage of accumulated ****" thinking I needed some sort of work platform that I could set my lap top and stage my hops on. I don't remember acuiring this but it fit the bill nicely.
I had to lengthen the side rail to keep it away form the BK heat and install another upright for support.
As I was digging my way to the table I found this
Once mounted I will have 2 stage filtration for my water. I still have to find 18" cartridges.

I also measured the smoker/BBQ to determine mounting.
ARRRGH! it's too long. So in a hazed mind I decided that if the fire box is removed and propane burner installed to the BBQ it would fit perfectly and I wouldn't have to worry about spreading ash and embers as I traveled down the road. The burner I know is not in the garage. If anyone knows of a place to get really cheap BBQ burners then the BBQ might happen before the end of summer.
OP
OP
I've been looking at the "pop-up" canopys. I have several friends who have them and they have gotten them on sale for about $75 for a 10X10. These fold up to fit in a bag you can carry over your shoulder. But due to Obamics I will be using the umbrellas from the old rig.
I was going to say "you suck" but it seems like that's been well established... so I'll settle for creativity.... YOU BLOW!
good job!
good job!

Thanks for the compliments. As we are our own worst critics there are many things I would like to do to it to make it truly the bomb. Perhaps when money permits. Until then I will be doing what I can with the "garage of accumulated ****" and the help of other interested home brewers.
Great design beerthrity...let me know if you need an assistant on your N. American beer tour. {YOU SUCK!}
I have a dream to build a mini beer truck out of an enclosed trailer. Something like this:
http://www.allstatetrailers.com/photos/023/10342023_1_b.jpg
Cut out a spot for a window air conditioner, insulate the walls a little better, and drill some taps into the side and you're the new best friend to everyone you know.

Today I skipped the wet run and just made beer. Hit my numbers pretty spot on not bad since I just guessed at the new chiller and trub losses. It was the perfect test day for all the upgrades I have made so far. The wind was blowing hard and would, I suspect gust up to 25 MPH. Not a single burner was blown out, the shields worked perfectly. I finally had a chance to use the new birthday plate chiller I got back in February. Single pass chilling down to pitching temps. Tippy dumps are amazing, making cleanup a breeze. Electrical system only had one small hiccup, when touching the mash tun with the inside of my forearm and wet feet I noticed a slight tingle. I think i have figured out why but it still confuses me a bit. I didnot ground the trailer to the gfci because of limited room in the box and the fact that the entire elctrical system is insulated from the trailer. Plastic boxes, rubber coated ladder clips water proof box fittings, then I realized that although the pumps use grounded cords the pump frames were still bolted to the trailer frame. I tested the GFCI befor brewing began and it worked fine. so the only answer is the pump frame ground. I'll be adding a trailer ground to the GFCI before the next brew. So here are the pics.
Recirculating the mash.
Boiling with no sign of boilover.
Tippy dump in action.
I forgot to take a pic of the inside of the hopstopper equipped boil kettle after draining. Although it did leave a little wort behind and caused a couple cavitation issues, I was pleased with its performance. The hop bill was 2 oz of leaf and 2 oz of pellet.
There a still many small and a couple major upgrades in the works. I will post as they emerge.
