Hello Brewers,
I'm getting pretty comfortable in my brew process and I'm wanting to build a system to help standardize my setup. Right now its a mixture of tables, stands and heavy lifting - it's fun, but not that fun. I'm trying to build a single tier / one pump system and looking for any advice to make sure my plumbing/flows look right before I start the build.
Here are some photos of the setup and process. Looking for any advice on things I may be overlooking or problem areas with this set up. Spec's below.
======================
Goal: Single tier brew system driven by one pump.
Equipment includes:
Dual burners, *camlocks, pump and plate chiller. *Camlocks make switching fittings not a concern for this setup.
Process: All grain, batch sparge only. Chill wort by recirc in BK (due to high ground water temps) then transfer into fermentation vessel. I typically use my plate chillers water discharge to clean up. (It’s the reason for pushing into the HLT at the end of process)
**Note: The HLT has been moved to the center position**
Seems pretty straight forward, but any advice from those more experienced with a system like this would be much appreciated! Thanks!
UPDATE
Here is the stand I made. It was a King Kooker 94/90TKD I converted.
