Here is my new system. I’ll be doing a test brew on it today to get it all ready for the real thing. I’ve been working on it since February of this year. I decided to do a Brutus clone after many months of seeing other systems out there, and it seemed like a great way to go. I think I was going for durability, ease of use, and something I could store away and move around easily. I was near obsessed over the planning and building of this thing. Okay, I was obsessed. I didn’t have to make it out of stainless, but I thought about the hassle of having to repaint the brew stand once in a while and stainless was the way to go in the long run.
All fittings are stainless with the exception of the Blichmann Autosparger. I plan on adding a water filtration unit in the near future and maybe a hopback. This was a complete thrill to finish this thing. Please let me know what you think.
Excellent brewstand!
What kind of burners are you using?
I also have a Brutus 10 made from SS but I am still working on the finishing touches. I am going to buy the Therminator soon.
I got the full set of plans from Lonnie M.
I assume you have tried it out. How is it working for you.
“That’s not a wisk… this is a wisk”
That’s a clean looking system. Interesting looking conical back there, is that a yeast propagator, did you make that yourself?
This looks GREAT Nick! Man I love seeing these things come alive!
Very nice . . Clean, functional, and well built. How 'bout a pic of the controller’s guts?
I’m no expert, but photo # 57 qualifies as “Art” in my book. That is one cool brewing setup.
Fantastic looking build ! a job so very well done, you should be proud .
Very Nice indeed. I’ve been working on a new brew stand for our home brew shop out of mild angle iron. It’s a HERMS using the Therminator. I’m really excited to put it to use for our new Brew on Site program.
