On Black Friday I decided to more up from a 5-10 gallon gas fired brew system to a 10-15 electric brewery. I made a lot of adjustments along the way and have had some stressful brew days that didn’t work out, including one that scorched the work on the electric rims element so badly that I still haven’t cleaned it.

Today I brew on the (hopefully/probably) final set up.

End of the brew day, didn’t expect to boil in the HLT but when the kettle element failed at the beginning of the boil we were left with no choice. It was filled to the tippy too and we managed to avoid boil over due to the watchful eye of plugged the plate chiller, missed gravity by 10 points 57% brew house efficiency. I just hope it tastes good.

The sparge went well. First time pumping the sparge water from the HLT

15 gallon batch of Breathe Baby Breathe. First 15 gallon batch on the new system that I didn’t split. First batch in the unitank. First batch with temperature control for fermentation from the glycol chiller. Did I mention that I basically got all the clean up done yesterday too?

Beautiful but chilly evening for a brew day (night). Finally got the new system (almost) all dialed in. Need a couple of more hoses and fittings so I can do the whole brew day without unhooking a hose
