Mash and boil Brew stand

[Ian57]

Hi
Hope I am posting in the right place. Here we go. I have just acquired the Mash and Boil brew system and on seeing a post in another forum regarding a newly acquired Nano brewery which included a pulley system for lifting the grain basket. I got to thinking that would be a great ides for my system.
So what do you guys think to using 2x4 as a frame work to support the pulley? Maybe even double them up for extra strength?
Cheers
Ian

When I used to BIAB, I used this - worked great and could collapse for storage:

Basic 2x4s would work just fine, probably more than strong enough for that system. Electrical conduit is nice and rigid and might also be a good choice. Some people have found a shelving unit works well with some of the shelves removed.


The sky's the limit

This guy made a motorized lift for his grain basket:
