happy homebrewing pics
seeing as i've just got the hang of putting photos on the forum, thought i'd put a couple snaps on. As you can see this homebrewing lark is becoming a bit of an obsession!!

both very impressive! looks quite complicated with all that tubing and pipes. i take it that you're both into all grain brewing? can you give me an idea of what it all does?
i'm very envious of the bar !! trouble is if i had my brother and my mates round they wouldn't leave until all them bottles of spirits had been necked!
Gonna have to give it a go one day
At the moment i'm drinking some of the wines i made last summer, memorising some that i'll be doing again and some that i definately won't !!!
mint and tea and oak leaf spring to mind !
and if you want a hangover from hell i reccommend drinking a bottle of kiwi fruit wine and then gin !!
how long have you both been into it?

I started in July last year with extract brews & got into AG ~ November. It's difficult because I only just finished drinking some of my extract brews recently and so kept running out of kegs to put it in
My AG is nothing special. It's basically the standard 3 tier system (HTL, Mash tun, Collection vessel) but with the addition of a little heat resistant pump so that the boiler doesn't have to be raised up to transfer hot water into the mash tun. The pump is attached to a Stainless Steel Plate Heat exchanger which is pretty tiny but very efficient The only difficult part is lifting 30L of liquor in the fermentor by hand up into the boiler although I like this method very much because the fermentor has the measurement graduations on the side.
