The Rig
This is my brewing set-up, known as "The Rig" It is constructed of 3/4" square steel poorly welded together (by me). A turkey fryer burner is attached to the upper tier, another burner just sits below the lower tier so that I can remove it and use it for other things.
Here's all of the components in action. Hot liquor tank on upper tier, Mash tun on second tier, boil kettle on the ground receiving runoff. After sparging is complete I remove the mash tun and set the boil kettle on the lower burner.
Here's a picture of a mash in progress, sparge water is heating on the upper tier. My mash/lauter tun has a Bazooka screen instead of a false bottom. I batch-sparge and usually get 72% efficiency, less on high gravity batches.
