Brew Rig Options

[Jono_w]

Hey Guys,

Had a very constructive day yesterday.
My Brother and Myself Part own a Timber Mill so we spent the day cutting lining for my shed/brewery and a bar top. I know It doesn't help to get the brewery going but still had to be done.

We are eagerly awaiting to see photos of it in action! :icon_cheers:

STILL LOOKING FOR FERMENTERS!!
300L commercial grade and fairly cheap, well not $6000 like I was quoted..
Cheers,
Jono.

you could triple batch into a 1,000L IBC - no chill FTW!. comes with an cage...just chill it in your lake?

you would need a big knee pad to push against the side to get all the air out

That's 1 of 50 logs in a row, we take the mill to location , in this case a mates farm he has cleared a wind row with a dozer so our job is easy.

Hmm! big toys make the job easier.

Hey Guys,
I've been quite lately but been very busy renovating my house, in between jobs the brewery/bar gets some attention.
Here's some pics of my progress..










Cheers...

*drool*. I want that shed!!

 

[kelbygreen]

looks great! you dont see pitched roofs much lately. Whats the rafters made of dont seem to big but could be the photo and whats the pitching beam made of hard to see in photos to. My shed its pitched roof and I dunno how it hasnt fallen down as the rafter spacings are like 2500mm lol got on there once to seal hole in the second hand iron and it was a massive stride and a steady step in the middle lol. At least the pool table wont get wet

 

[booargy]

good shi-stuff got to get myself a block soon. :icon_drool2:

 

[Jono_w]

Cheers,
I wanted to keep the pitch, otherwise its a waste of space. The shed is a typical colorbond with C section trusses and top hat, I used a truck load of cypress to square the shed up to plaster it, 60 x 35 was used at 500mm centers for the studs and rafters. The pitching beam is 250 x 35 cypress with a 100 x 35 on each side, hard to explain but was needed to build it out to make a corner for the wall - ceiling plaster join.
All in all It would have been faster to stud wall the whole shed inside than trying to screw to the tophat.

Yep, pitched roof - awesome.

You made beer yet?

We have heard all before bro!

If my mohawk grew back before I ran up my [perfectly built] brewery, I would surely make the effort to brew a beer!

Dude... please!

BREW! PIX! BEER! Sorted...

GO!

 

[Jono_w]

Mate, I know it, you think my mates down here don't give me hell about it daily, luckily with my new location 3 doors down from our local, I tell them where to go... now with a suitable power supply things are looking good.

That advice comes from a small commercial brewing company..

Hey Pj,
Yeah some are the same but i've found any that have conical bottoms and are jacketed are a similar price. There are alot of smaller non jacketed ones around though so they may be an option.
Cheers

You seem to encourage a lot of folks to build a cellar. Are you going to build one at Ballhannah? h34r:
