  • I said goodbye to the home brewery of my dreams to build a new brewery in a tiny little backyard shed. And I ain't stopping until I've built an even better brewery than the last one.
    In this video I start work on the new home brewery. We strip everything out of the shed, get some electrical upgrade, paint the walls, install the flooring, and move everything into the space. At the end of the video I take you on the first official tour of the new Hops & Gnarly home brewery.

    As most have said, fantastic project and great use of the space. But personally I would not mill in there. How do you contain the grain dust, especially when it’s within feet of your packaging station? Doesn’t seem like much ventilation in there. That would be my worry.
    Lastly, if you’re brewing in there where is your water source?

    You will probably have a lot of vapour while boiling in the brewery so solving that could be added to the list. Otherwise you end up having too much humidity which may harm the electronic devices and create mold. I would also suggest ceramic on the walls and food grade epoxy coating on the floor.

    • @HopsANDgnarly

  • @joshuapinter
    @joshuapinter 8 месяцев назад

    So awesome! I'm a similar position. Moved the family across the country six months ago and just getting around to setting up a semi-dedicated brewery in the basement.
    Similar to you, there's so much I want to do but the plan was to get it up and running, do a few batches and start to figure out what works where and what doesn't work. Then start making some improvements.
    The fact that you can brew, ferment and package now is key. You're over the hump and the rest will start to take shape, based on priority and real-world usage.
    Some questions:
    1. What did you use to plan this out? Was it just in your head and winging it, or did you sketch it on paper or on SketchUp? Especially in a small space (mine is about the same size as yours), you need a plan to make things as efficiently as possible so I'd like to get your input and plan mine out a bit more.
    2. What are you doing for humidity during a boil? Install exhaust fan? Open a window? Steam condensing lid?
    3. What current glycol chiller do you have and what are you planning on getting. I'm using a DIY one but have been eyeing up the Spike one as the best overall package for home brewing.
    4. Are you planning on going commercial at all?
    5. What is your day job?
    All of your To-Dos are currently on my list as well so super keen to watch you solve each of them.
    Congrats on everything you've done in such a short amount of time!

    • @HopsANDgnarly
      @HopsANDgnarly  8 месяцев назад

      So I didn't plan it out really I just tried an initial layout, it didn't work, moved it, didn't work, and so on. Took quite a while to get to the current configuration and I'm sure it'll change again. For steam control I'm using steam condensers on both kettles and it's working really well. I also live in a very dry climate so anything that escapes will soon disappear. My glycol chiller is the ice master II from BrewBuilt (Kegland G20 I believe). I plan to continue using it but I'll be adding some solenoid valves from Brewtools to expand its capabilities. I would like to go commercial at some point far off in the future but most likely in a non-traditional way. Potentially gypsy brewing via collaborations or even a virtual brewery. By day I'm a learning designer in the software industry.
      Looking forward to continuing on! Cheers!

    Holy cow, that’s a lot of stuff in a small space. Not sure what kind of work you do or how much time you’ll be in there working, but that space doesn’t look very ergonomical. When I built my home office the game changer for me was a wall mounted heat pump for heating and cooling, and an energy recovery ventilator for constant filtered ventilation. I spend 8 hrs a day in there so no more CO2 level spikes and constant 75F all day. What’s your water/cleaning situation? Do you have space nearby outside for a wash basin? Plumb an instant hot water heater for cleanup water with that old natural gas line service from that space heater.

      Hahaha just like any home brewer… with the hose my guy. Not ideal but I’ve already brewed twice in here and it’s similar to my last brewery. But rest assured it’s on the list and gonna happen. I’m even looking at some tankless water heaters. We’ll see what happens. Code says I can’t have hardlined water without a line into the sewer so it gets complicated quick. Also I’ve been brewing with spring or RO water in those blue jugs for a long time. So it’s mainly the cleaning and steam condensers we gotta worry about. 🤙🏼🍻

      @@HopsANDgnarly I’m looking forward to seeing what you come up with. I brew out of an old “washer and dryer” closet now where I added a small sink which fits a bucket inside of it and I use a small pump to push the water to the drain pipe which was used by the washing machine. Maybe you could do that and have it drain to a spot in your yard/where your rain water drains. I’ve had to utilize every inch of the space so I know it’s all part of the fun but it can be frustrating. Before I moved it all into a designated spot I also brewed out of my garage, and I added an external sink just outside of a fully sliding window. It was not ideal, but I was able to drain into it, pass wet grains to it and use a hose splitter to run water to that sink which I extended into the garage. Best of luck!

    Awesome! Two questions:
    1)What do you do with the Raspberry pi?
    2) How do you manage temp for fermentation? I know you have the glycol chiller to cool, but what do you use to raise temps?

    • @HopsANDgnarly
      @HopsANDgnarly  8 месяцев назад

      The raspberry pi receives input from my Tilt hydrometers and sends data to Brewfather so I can track fermentation. Some of my tanks have heaters connected to them and others just use the ambient temperature to raise the temp. Cheers!

    I just started moving my brew setup to a small shed space too, although not nearly as complex as yours....yet 😅. For the floor, I found decent looking vinyl that you can stick to the floor, then mopped with a waterproofing coat. Super cheap and does exactly what I want. Draining is the next step to figure out.

    Efficient and elegant! I'd imagine the more you use it the more tweaks you'll be able to make to get it slimmed down. I'll echo what others say, there's a few too many fermenters but it sounds like you're going with wall-mounted mini-uni's soon, you need a winch of some sort so you don't get a hernia or have a brunami accident one day, and some sort of humidity control and HVAC would probably make the brew days nicer. Excited to see where you go with it, and your editing and narration skills are always top notch.

    How did you seal the flooring down? I saw the sealant, but that's for the subfloor boards. The laminate on top is my question. Anywhere I've had that laminate, it comes up within a year, usually due to moisture getting to the glue.

    Check your local plumbing code. I had a plumber doing some work so I asked him about running a water supply to my brewshed. He said that code requires that a supply line can only be installed if you also install a sewer line. I told him I didn't need a waste line because the water will either be going into the beer or used for cleaning so I'll just dump the buckets in the corner of the yard. He understood but still said that the law is the law. So, for now, I have to run a potable hose out there when needed. He did offer a suggestion though. He said that when I do the electrical run, to also run separate 2" electrical conduit and run the hose through that. Since it is not a permanent connection it is allowed.

    • @HopsANDgnarly
      @HopsANDgnarly  8 месяцев назад +1

    Fantastic transformation! I also recently moved and I'm dealing with a new space for brewing. Right now my brew cart is burried, but seeing this is inspiring! I would for sure get some sort of powered ventilation in there. I didnt notice your old sink in there. I would think that would be a great thing to have in there, you could potentially rout a drain out the floor or wall.

    Just a thought, but maybe you could set up your old fermentation shed just outside the brewery and line the inside with a decent amount of inulation.even if you just used it for storing canning and bottling stuff or a mill station etc I see that extra space being extremely useful.
