My buddy Evan built me some lambic racks that I'm very happy with. I drastically underestimated the number of bottles I would have so I'm also looking into having more built or buying something else to hold bottles. I'm officially out of room. Will post pics in case you're interested in the design, just need to dig up some photos.



Apologies for the janky photos. This is in my apartment and although it gets a bit more light than I’d like, we keep my apt at 64 in the winter and around 70/72 during the summer. Not ideal but I haven’t had any issues so far with any bottles I’ve had in this setup.
The custom racks are basically six 6x6 squares, which are put together 2x2 and attached to the brick wall and then the last 6x6 is adjoined by a corner cabinet which holds a bunch more bottles. I also have 6 wooden crates which are overflowing with bottles and then the rest are being stored in cardboard until I have a better solution.
If you look closely, you can see bottles from SP that I owe RyanG and niner99 on top of the boxes. Hoping to get those out tomorrow!
But back to the point, Evan built the racks with the 6x6 concept so that they are modular and I can add to them and/or adjust the configuration whenever I move or change the placement of my bottles. The setup is suboptimal from a space to bottles perspective but I sure dig the look. I’m sure I can ask if you’re interested in the designs, I know Evan drew them up so that they could be replicated. Cheers
Bonus shot from when the racks were installed, things have changed since then!
