Homebrew Project

We (Adam, Ira, Tobias, and Matt) did a fair amount of work on the brewery components tonight. Pictures will follow here in a few days.

We have most of the cold box completed we only need to caulk a few seams, paint the outside of the box and put on casters and affix the heat exchanger to the inside of the box.

We also started the cart that the glycol chiller will sit on. This will be somewhat complex in order for the glycol reservoir not to leak.

However, the most interesting piece thus far is the "Brain" of the fermentation process which Ira is building and programming entirely from scratch. We are using a touch screen to control and monitor the process. At this point we will be able to program manually or use preset modes for the temperatures and times for fermentation.

This is a lot of information but I promise to include video and pictures to make the whole concept more intriguing.

Later....
