Was just having a flick through some of the brewstand pics and the old gears started to turn.......How hard would it be to do a fermentation stand, with a few normal, or to go really flash conical fermenters in series that are all temperature controlled for fermentation and lagering. The reason I started to think about this is with one fermentation fridge, and a double batch, there is only so much that can be done at once. If you wanted to do more brews, the fridges start to breed or you get into the big arse freezer/coldroom arena then the power bill gets ugly and the missus gets angry. Or is that the power bill gets angry and the missus gets ugly? Anyway I digress.
What I was wondering is has anyone tried something similar or seen it done? If so how easily was it achieved? From the way I was thinking it does not seem to be a hard proposal to achieve, you just need a chest freezer, some solenoids, a pump or 2, immersion chillers for each fermenter and the temp controllers.
What is the consensus. Is it as easy to do as I think it is and would it be worth the farting around and cost to do?
