New brewery coming

Well heres the plan. The Whispering Cat Brewery is expanding. A friend has a larger brick built garage and we have decided to set up a larger brewery in there as a partnership. We are planning a 100 litre, three vessel system running on electricity and built around a 100 litre steel boiler with two 3kw elements in it. We also have two 50 litre steel kegs that we plan to use in tandem as dual mashtuns to feed the 100 litre boiler. We are still sorting out an HLT. We will build a custom made fermentation chamber big enough to take 4 fermenters, and will store and dispense using corney kegs.

OMG this is an exciting development. There is loads to do and it will take a while to get up and running. I will keep the 5 gallon set up so that we can pilot new brews and also make small batches of specialist beers easily. It will all get posted here as it happens.
