My utility room was *made* for brewing. Well, I'd like to think so considering I'm wanting to make the jump to electric.
The utility room is in a walkout basement. In the attached picture the exterior/concrete walls are solid gray and interior walls are gray framed.
Existing stuff is in red and what I'm contemplating doing is in blue. I didn't draw in an exhaust hood but would put one in and try to duct it outside through the exterior wall or possibly into dryer duct.
Floor joists above are currently open so all wiring/circuits for downstairs and water/plumbing for upstairs are accessible.
Two questions:
1. Any suggestions on layout that differ from what I've drawn?
2. Utility room stays between 68-74 degrees year round so would a smaller refrigerator make more sense for the fermentation closet?
P.S - That laundry chute comes out in a hall/entry into the kitchen (I hate it) and I would like to say the dumbwaiter was my idea, but it was the wife's recommendation and approval at me taking over the utility room.
