Hello there! I've been lurking around here for a while and thought I would finally make a presence. I've been making beer for the past 12 years. I've made many different styles of beer but for the last 5 years or so, it's only been wheat beers. My significant other and I prefer the wheat beers. It makes us both happy.
Up to this point I've only made beers from either extract or the full volume wort (23L). That is all about to change....
Over the past three years, I've collected parts, electronics, fittings and tubing. I finally finished my home brewery a few weeks ago. It's a single tier, three vessel systems using kegs as a HLT and mash tun and a 80 quart stainless boil kettle. The kegs were converted to bottom draining (I cut the tops off for a nice 12" lid) with a false hinged bottom. The mash tun has a 4500W rims heater and the boil kettle has a 5500W heater. All of the liquids are moved around via dedicated 12v pumps for each vessel. I decided to put my trade skills to use here and used 1/2" stainless steel tubing and soldered all the tri-clamp fittings myself.
This has been a long project and I'm super excited about brewing my first batch when the vessels get back from being insulated and the EzBoil is back from a warranty issue.
Brew-on!
