DIY 3 Tier Build
Posted: Wed Jun 03, 2020 1:47 pm
I recently got back into brewing (Last brewed extract 18 years ago)
Built myself a 3 tier system due to the fact that had room, some free steel and I didn’t know enough about electric options at the time. It was also a good chance to practice some welding.
It's somewhat modeled on Blichmann's top tier system. The system has 3 adjustable shelves and can completely dissemble for storage if I need to get it out of the way.
The top tier (HLT) and bottom (BK) have a bracket that allows the 200,00 BTU burner to be moved between the shelves.
(I'll probably eventually add a second burner at some point but this works fine for now)
Built a sparge arm and adjustable bracket (Blue) that allows me to position it pretty much anywhere I want in the mash tun.
The entire rig works very well (At least from a beginning brewer perspective.) I can add brackets, holders, shelves etc as required with relative ease. Upgrading to 10 Gal. should be relatively easy as well. (Would need bigger mash tun, possibly a bigger BK)
