I have been a bit dormant on the build (and brewing for that matter) for a few months but in the past month I have done quite a bit to the Brewry

I have now moved brewery to my friends Industrial Unit, as there is much more space and a floor drain there.

I have also fitted a load of Stainless steel Camlocks, to make brewing a bit easier (I hope)

You seem to get more and more sophisticated, is it far to your pal's.
About 1.5miles so not far at all,I think it will be being used for 1 barrel batches for bottling.
As there is a 2.5barrel plant there too that will be going into production soon, I have just a few things to tinker with on the 2.5bbl one and it will be good to go.

That's bigger than some commercial micros I know!
Is that your intention?

The 2.5bbl will be a commercial micro, very soon. Brewing commences some time in January.
(not mine by the way) but I will be involved.

Happy New Year Everyone :cheers: :drink:
