Show Us Your Brew Cave

[shaunous]

Unassuming 8m x 7m colourbond shed up in backyard, but inside is my mancave. Couple of couches, potbelly heater, reverse cycle a/c, 46in LCD + 5.1 surround, additional 22in LCD on swivel mount for outdoor viewing, beer fridge and Liebherr kegerator (modded with twin font, perlick taps and font fan). Bonus views to Mount Baw Baw out the roller door.

Very tidy Gav, I like a man with a clean shed/workshop, nuttin worse then **** absolutely everywhere. So one TV not enough

Are they bricks that are painted behind ya potbelly, or some aftificial type heat thang.
I got me an original pot belly, care of an empty farm house that was being demolished, when im up an able again its gotta make its way into my new shed.

Once I've used it I give it a fair scrub under hot running water, can't say I've noticed any off flavours so far..

Are you suggesting there should be an additional step to the cleaning routine? Diluted bleach or the like?

He does a 3rd anal bleaching step.

 

[Northside Novice]

So fresh and so clean

The single most inspiring thread on ahb.
Hats off to all the ingenuity, workmanship, dedication and ******* style you boys show. My brew cave is a cupboard under the stairs, half my kitchen pantry and my bathtub/laundry sink. Not worth photographing.
If I ever get anything half way toward something of these setups, I will live many happy years on this earth. When me and the missus buy, im gonna have to buy a place that can handle some serious man space. At least she agrees a bar in a house is a good idea.

Im Wayne AND Garth not worthy.

Do you own a wand?

 

[Cocko]

Do you own a wand?

Surely a Giant man with a beard will come to collect him soon?

Dont worry, the wand will choose.....

 

[Pickaxe]

Hahaha! If it's a big bearded pedophile he's going to be disappointed with a 35 yr old kid. Wish my cupboard under the stairs could match that ******* hobbits brew hole.

Was expecting a Truman joke.

 

[Pickaxe]

All the talk of wands, better not be bearded Dennis Ferguson coming for me. My wand says no.

Yea, just some crappy old bricks that I threw a coat of paint on - not pretty but does the job. And no, one tv is not enough! Another pic from yesty, gotta love Vic weather in springtime - 30c one day then got the potbelly going the next...

Classy Goat, classy. You'd be busy on the feather duster Yeh?

 

[billygoat]

Niiice.. Come a long way from that patch of dirt not long ago..

Which patch of dirt ?????

 

[slcmorro]

I can attest... Billygoats brew cave is astonishing. I've been lucky enough to have a beverage or two out there. Magical place

Ok spill it, what did he do to your cat behind the shrubs.

 

[slcmorro]

I *may* have had several of your DIIPA... :icon_drool2:

 

[Yob]

Wasn't it built not long ago? Maybe I'm thinking of one of the other BAD brewers..??

You must be.
Also, I'm from BAR.

 

[Yob]

Districts... regional... BAD.. BAR..

Im easily confused.. :blink:

[Camo6]

Feel a bit embarrassed posting pics of my lil brewery after some of the mind boggling brew caves in this thread.
But here she is:

Single Cell Brewing


A bit tight for space but the shed's under a carport which I intend to brace and clad. It'll have a roller door at one end for the brewrig and I've got enough coolroom panelling to make the other end a walk-in fermentation chamber. That should leave enough room in the middle for a bar and a workbench. Good thing is it used to cover a live-in caravan and has power, water and even sewage outlets.


And though it may not be on par with some of the brew Meccas displayed here, how many can boast they have a brewday butler who seems to know me better than I know myself: "IPA or Single Malt, sir?" "Why Jeeves, I believe I'll have both."

 

[djar007]

Jeeves is awesome. He looks so friendly. How could you say no to that face.

 

[Camo6]

He's also a dead ringer for an old boss. Let me just say when the brewing gets ugly, Jeeves cops the brunt of it.

 

[Yob]

I see you have 4 taps.. Let me know when you need a hand building the Brew palace

 

[shaunous]

Looks sexy enough to me Camo. Jeeves is a great addition, that man looks awesome.

 

[Camo6]

Therein lies my drinking problem: four taps, two hands, one mouth. The math just don't cut it but I'm trying stay on top of it the best I can. ;-)
