Deep Six Brewery - back in action!

[shadowmage36]

What're you doing for flooring in there? Or have you not thought about that yet?

What're you doing for flooring in there? Or have you not thought about that yet?

It must be 9" square glazed rust colored clay tile, easy to clean plus has that warm look. JMO as tile from Mexico is rather cheap.

 

[John Beere]

To answer a couple of questions.. this is the same crew who rebuilt my house. There are two guys building and one guy cutting / carrying. I haven't got to the inside yet.. not really sure what it will have, but I can tell you that it will be some sort of heavy tile and will have at least one floor drain.

Here is today's progress.. the electrical is wrapped up and they got the stairs built. The roofers will be here tomorrow AM.

looks stellar, can't wait to see it finished.

 

[Julohan]

How tall is that doorway?

 

[John Beere]

How tall is that doorway?

Its a standard side double door.. 5' wide. The reason it isn't closer to the roofline was discussed earlier in the thread.. there is a knee wall built under the roof to create a large loft for storage..

 

[John Beere]

Here is today's progress.. the roofers just left about an hour ago.

 

[ReeseAllen]

You're going to want a ramp to get heavy items in there. You could probably build one that fits securely on top of the stairs which can be lifted off and stored under the porch. Just a thought.

 

[Layne]

Way cool! That gonna be so nice when it's done.

 

[John Beere]

Yes, it will definitely have a ramp I can lay over the stairs.. thought about that just the other day.

Here are a few more photos from inside:

Here are the three 30-amp/220v plugs for version 3.0 of my rig:

You can see another 30-amp / 220v plug on the back wall which is where version 2.0 will sit:

And here is in the back corner looking forward towards the front. I plan on putting a desk there and a TV mounted on the wall.

What's in the smoker?

 

[John Beere]

Why, that is my BGE: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f56/ed-wort-help-big-green-egg-purchase-49550/

 

[klyph]

I meant to say, what tasty delicacy of proteinous glory do you have smoking away?

 

[John Beere]

Ah.. misread. I've got two boston butts on @ 220 for the long smoke overnight.. they will be ready by dinner tomorrow!

 

[humann_brewing]

everything is looking very nice so far!

John,

We love our egg also. If you ever have an inclination to get a little larger smoker one day may I suggest a Spicewine. We drag ours to BBQ competitions all over the northeast. The cooker is built like a Sherman Tank and will hold temperature for better than 24 hours using a BBQ Guru. Best of luck with your new brewery. I felt badly when I heard about the flood.

 

[John Beere]

That's an awesome looking smoker! We have a super cooker for tailgating and neighborhood parties but no slow cooker like that. I also have a BBQ Guru for my BGE- love it!

Quick update on the brewey.. the windows won't be in until Friday earliest.. so we are kinda stuck. The roofers and electricians finished today, but I don't think much else will get wrapped up until the windows get installed..

 

[John Beere]

Finally some progress! The outside is pretty much done except for the painting:

 

[klyph]

Looks like a fun playhouse.

 

[Yooper]

That looks beautiful! Your yard is wonderful. I'm so jealous right now!

 

[SouthernYankee]

Thats one amazing playroom!

Question: Will you spend more time in there or more time in your house?

 

[southernskies]

I need one of those, that way when I get sent to "the doghouse" it wouldn't be so bad. lmao
Great job on it looks really good.

I would be glad to be sent to the "doghouse" by the War Department.
Looking good better than some peoples regular house, congrats.

 

[wildwest450]

Very nice, I like it.

Thanks for providing motivation for me to get going on my half finished brew shed.

Of course unlike you, i'm doing everything myself, and digging for every penny possible.

Yes people, jealousy rears it's ugly head again.

I was thinking the same thing. I'd be in the doghouse for spending too much time "in" the doghouse...

And that is nicer than my house...

 

[hammis]

seriously, you are my hero!!!!

where does a guy find a wife who lets him build his own microbrew in the backyard...amazing!!!!!

Well, first you get a divorce.. then you build the brewery. It's genius!

 

[IrregularPulse]

hahah

Looks awesome man. Makes me realize I'd rather wait until I can afford to do it right like that instead of rush into whatever I could afford now.
Are you going to be doing anything around the bottom for trim such as lattice or keep it open?

 

[John Beere]

Quick update.. GA Power will be here on Wednesday to hook up the power.. The weather was finally nice enough today for the painter to start painting.. And the landscapers came and roughed in the sidewalk.. Here are a couple of photos:

 

[klyph]

Looks great, but don't the narrow stairs defeat the purpose of the double doors?

 

[John Beere]

Yeah, I guess they do a little.. the stairs are 48" wide and the door is 56" wide. It'll be OK though, the widest thing that I'll probably have to get in there are my uprights freezers..

 

[BADPENNY]

Looking really good

 

[thehines]

Hope you don't mind I have a man crush on your Brew House/Pub

 

[IrregularPulse]

So if you don't mind , maybe through a PM, what's a project like this run with a friend doing the labor? I have a friend who is in the same business and is constantly doing projects like this for people and I get a pretty good rate from him.

 

[John Beere]

A little progress today.. painting is nearly done and the shutters were hung. Electricity will be turned on tomorrow.

 

[MacBruver]

Looking good!!!

 

[BrewBeemer]

Looking good!!!

No it's not because it's not in my backyard dangit!
If my wife sees this she'll want me to speed up my house
project pace as i'm 1/20th as fast.

 

[John Beere]

I got my final inspection today.. no problems. Am glad that is over.. now I can start freely working on the inside and move my stuff back home.

Here is a photo of the sidewalk which branches off the firepit to the brewery:

And here is the best photo I could take of the loft above it.. plenty of room to store all my crap!

 

[CodeRage]

Just beautiful John!

 

[slakwhere]

total materials cost? i know the labor was sort of a-typical...
