m3taL's Home Brau Meister Build

So i have started collecting the stuff for my build.

- 50L Sanke Keg
- Braumeister 20L Malt Pipe, Top & Bottom Screens and filters, Hold down bar - Sourced Grain and Grape
- M12 All thread, Wing Nut, and assorted nuts/washers - Sourced from Konnect Supplies
- Weldless Fittings - 1 Ball Valve and 2 Pump In/Outlets
- Kegking Silver Pump (Existing from other brewery)
- Sestos PID and 1/2" NPT PT100 Sealed thermocouple (Hope to source a Brauduino instead)

Still to come
- Braudurio Controller (Hopefully)
- 3600w Element (Ordered from Romar Elements due in 10 days 19/3)
- Glass Lid to suit


Plan at the moment is to cut the complete top off the keg or close enough too it depending on Lid, Then weld the top collar off the keg to the bottom of it to give height for Pump to sit underneath and control box, Again this may still need some further design as im not sure if there will be enough height. SO some more legs or a stand may need to be constructed, would love to build something free standing but, would also like to be able to brew in the kitchen under the rangehood.

Im Keen to TIG Weld all the fittings in and use some quick disconnects on the pump so that it can be easily removed for clean up. Will see how this works out.

Im not sure if i will insulate or polish the keg Keen to get started but dont want to rush this like i did when i started the 3v system.

cant wait to get it underway....

Heres a Short Vid of the build so far, Still waiting on some parts to come in, and im going to build a full brew stand for it so it is free standing and interdependent
