Brew location

[Orfy]

Where do you brew?

I mash inside and boil outside.

 

[bradsul]

During the summer I mash and boil outside, chill inside. During the winter I boil outside and mash and chill inside.

 

[Got Trub?]

In summer I mash, boil and chill outside. In the winter I usually mash inside - especially on windy days, boil and chill outside.

 

[JnJ]

I said outside, but I brew in the garage with the door open.......

 

[FlyGuy]

Outside on the keggle in the summer, and inside doing a PITA split-pot boil on the stove in the winter. Sometimes Canada sucks.

 

[Pirate Ale]

I said outside, but I brew in the garage with the door open.......

Same here...

 

[david_42]

I brew in my old garage, so if the door is up, it's effectively outside. If it is cold, I just prop the door up enough to provide ventilation. When it's time to chill, I open the door regardless and run the water into the garden.

 

[Evan!]

I mash, boil, etc. outside year round. Gotta love brewing in January at 5am. That there is what they call "freezyernutzoff" brewing.

 

[Evets]

I also mash inside and boil outside. If it's really sucky outside I'll boil in the garage.

I said outside, but I brew in the garage with the door open.......

DITTO

Never thought about mashing inside in the winter though. Good idea.

 

[EdWort]

In summer I mash, boil and chill outside. In the winter I usually mash inside - especially on windy days, boil and chill outside.

Ditto!... .

 

[TheJadedDog]

I am trapped in my kitchen, it sucks as it really limits what I can do.

 

[griffondg]

I do everything in my kitchen and I actually like it. No complaints.

 

[kb9vzh]

I am only brewing with kits so inside is not bad. Plus my father loves the smell of the process. When I start going all grain I will move thing outside.

 

[Yuri_Rage]

Brewed my first few batches on the stove. Graduated to a turkey fryer on the back porch. Now I've got a monster NG burner for 15 gallon AG batches. Outside is THE way to go for me.

 

[Drunkensatyr]

Another Garage junkie here. No basements in Texas..... something about water table and fire ants....

 

[RichBrewer]

I mash inside and then boil outside. I'd like to change this some day because it is a huge pain to lift and Carry my converted keg with 8 or 9 gallons of wort in it to the back yard.
That is is I ever brew again.

 

[rdwj]

I mash inside and boil outside. I have a walk-out basement, so it works pretty well. I just built a little cart to move my kettle around, so that should help out quite a bit.

 

[Yooper]

I do the whole thing inside- I'd like to split it up a bit but there is no way this wimp can carry 7 gallons of semi-hot wort outside to boil it. I just do it on my stove in the turkey fryer pot and use the turkey fryer burner for frying fish.

Plus, in the winter, it's way too cold. I guess the wort would chill faster, but my garden hose would probably freeze!

 

[rod]

mash inside, boil outside in garage then carry the pot downstairs to the basement to cool and pitch. - man that pot is heavy and hot! i learned not to wear shorts the first trip to the basement

 

[dibby33]

...on the cooker for now, but have my eye on a burner and a big pot.

P.S. It is 0130 here and I am at work zzz
Damn system changes, they can only take place when system not running. Flipping horses...

 

[raceskier]

Another migratory brewer here. I did my first few extract brews on the kitchen stove. I'm now mashing and brewing in an open garage, using a turkey fryer.

 

[mrk305]

I do everything inside, in A/C!!

 

[Llarian]

Outside. My front porch plus a wooden stool makes a great 3-tier gravity setup. =)

-D

 

[sause]

I'm an outsider here. If it's cold then garage it is for me. Some times I with mash inside but that is a pain. My stove can do everything but boil water.:cross: But right now it's 85 and sunny so outside right now.

 

[rtp-brew]

Garage for me. The garden hose makes cleanup much easier as none of my pots really fit in the kitchen sink.

 

[Bernie Brewer]

Garage brewer here. Detatched garage, and not heated. I mash, sparge, and boil in there with the door open no matter the weather. In winter I haul the wort inside to cool, but I hate lugging ten gallon batches into the house, they're too damned heavy for this old man, so I'm working on a chilling system that won't turn my driveway into an ice skating rink......

 

[DrunkTrucker]

I brew outside now. I have an arizona room, its like a screened porch. I havent brewed much this summer cause its so damn hot here in Az. I plan on busting out some batches this winter though.

 

[BierMuncher]

Shoulda maybe split the poll between AG and extract.

I just moved my 10-gallon AG setup to my basement brewshop.

A nice constant 68 degrees, year round.

 

[Orfy]

I was hoping for an AG Poll,

I should think most Extract is done on the stove top.
