Here is my new system. I'll be doing a test brew on it today to get it all ready for the real thing. I've been working on it since February of this year. I decided to do a Brutus clone after many months of seeing other systems out there, and it seemed like a great way to go. I think I was going for durability, ease of use, and something I could store away and move around easily. I was near obsessed over the planning and building of this thing. Okay, I was obsessed. I didn't have to make it out of stainless, but I thought about the hassle of having to repaint the brew stand once in a while and stainless was the way to go in the long run.
All fittings are stainless with the exception of the Blichmann Autosparger. I plan on adding a water filtration unit in the near future and maybe a hopback. This was a complete thrill to finish this thing. Please let me know what you think.
