Hydraulic lift table

[Dixon9717]

Got this hydraulic lift table from harbor freight. Lowered to drain mash tun by gravity then raised to drain BK into fermenters. No pumps needed.

I like it...

I built mine with the BK high enough that I don't need a lift.

That is a 3 gallon bottle that I use for sanitizer but gives an indication of the height of the valve on the BK

Nice looking stand, I just didn't want my HLT so high to be hard to fill with water that's why I went with a shorter stand. The carboy in the pic is 6.5 gallons

I like it. What did it cost?

It was on sale at Harbor Freight for $135 plus $8 shipping

Had been thinking about using something just like this. I'll keep my eyes on Hazard Fraught for a deal.

This looks like a solution to a problem I didn't realize I had! Thanks for sharing.
