First off I would like to thank the forum for all the great build threads that give inspiration to everyone.
First goal was to build a mash tun to make better beer and get costs down. Went with the 10 gal HomeDepot and insulated it as well.
Next, I wanted to make things a little easier on me, so I built a 3-tier stand and added a ball valve and thermometer to my brew pot. The weldless kits didn't work very well IMO, so I went and got them welded.
I aso wanted to control the fermentation process, so I built a fermentation chamber with an old mini fridge from college. I went with the Control Products temp controller on this build. I initially had a light socket and was planning on a heat bulb, but I ended up going with a hair dryer. Here is what I came up with.
Lastly I wanted to keg my beer. So I did some research on here and found that the GE 7.0 would be perfect for me. I ran electrical in my pantry and painted it with chalk board paint. I used the SCT-1000 on this build as I liked the in the collar design with its low cost. It fits quite nicely.
I thought the brewery in the garage needed a little decoration too. Every bottle is different. And I'm constantly adding to the collection daily.
Again thanks to everybody who has posted a build project to inspire myself and others. Hope you enjoy.
Thanks
