New brew room completed

[brianccarr]

I thought I would share my completed brew room. K-Rims setup with Worthog controller ( I like this setup for those who are getting ready to tell about me all the negatives). I brewed for a year before hanging the drywall and tile. Glad I did because I got a chance to add in electrical outlets and add plumbing outlets and drains where I didn’t realize I needed them. I have a large RO storage tank in the attic that gravity feeds to the right valve on the pot filler. The left valve on the pot filler is hooked up to the regular plumbing line (nice for clean up). Added a water outlet for a steam condenser and ran a drain for it to my main drain. I know many suggest a floor drain in a brewery but I elected not to because the wall opposite of the brewery is my wife’s gym. I use plastic concrete mixer trays that sit under the kettles and pumps to collect most leaks and spills. I’m sure I missed some things but so far I’m pleased with how it turned out. Many thanks to all the education I’ve received through this forumand it’s great contributors.

Room looks great!

Could you share some details on how you mounted those pumps to the underside of the ss table? I'm looking to do the same with mine.

I’ll try and take some pictures tomorrow and post. Thanks to everyone for the kind post.

But where do you park your car? Oh wait, that's right, my brewery is in my garage, not yours.

Boy, that looks awesome. I would love to have a dedicated brewing room some day. Congrats.

Fantastic, has to be a great feeling to have completed. Congratulations!

Thanks for mentioning the RO storage tank in the attic, I'm going to plagiarize that idea and add it into my build.

This is a piece of PVC 1x5 trim mounted underneath and the pumps screw into the PVC.

In that room the word sweet applies to more than just the wort….

 

[YeastFeast]

Beautiful space. Nice job!

Looks like you threaded throught the PVC and right into the support members that run across and under the table?

Yes. Mounted the pvc directly to the table support members with a screw. Then mounted the pumps to the pvc.

Form and function always make me...well, let's not go there.

Looks great! I'm jealous.

 

[varnerchris]

How did you mount your worthog controller?

 

[brianccarr]

I used heavy duty plastic wall anchors.
