I thought I’d brag a little and show off how far my little brewery has come in a little more than a year. We have big plans for growth this year as well. Lotsa fun!!!
below is a 15 bbl MT (left) and BK (right). We will only be running half capacity for the time being because our fermenters are 7 bbl
these are our jacketed fermenters, in front are 6 white wine bbls and 2 brandy bbls. I am filling the wine bbls with our summer seasonal saison and the brandy bbls are getting our Miracle Worker Tripel
Another shot of cold room with kegs ready to ship and 10 bbl bright tank in background. We have had the cold room enlarged 2Xs since installation and probably need it again already.
Beer is selling well, in fact there are a couple of places where our Belgian White is the #1 seller. Lots of fun and, of course, lots of hard work. But worth it. I highly recommend it for all ya’ll!
No, we got them from a company called “Brew Bev” in Fla. They are Chinese tanks though, maybe made by the same plant in China as Glacier.
I’ll get you the dimensions ASAP. I believe it is 8" and it is pre fabbed. We just added a large door on the side that allows us to get the pallet jack in and out so that we can palletize kegs and store them for pick up (highly recommend that, makes delivery much easier.) Our walk-in is large enough to house the 10 bbl bright tanks and it slides in through the new door, so pre-fabbed should work for your needs.
The BK is gas fired. We wanted to go steam but could not fit it in our budget. When we build our next system I plan on making it steam and decoction capable. That’s my dream brewery. Still a ways away yet, but on the horizon.
Oh, BTW, I forgot to post the pick of my forklift. I recommend getting one of those too, or at least a docking bay and pallet jack.
