Andy went and dropped off our HLT and Boil Kettle for welding. We are having three 2-inch tri-clamp ferrules welded into each. These are where the heating elements will be attached. Going this route versus a weldless set up allows us to easily remove the elements for cleaning. Hopefully the welding will be finished by the beginning of next week.
We are constructing our own false bottom. The lowest price we could find for a custom built one was upwards of $250. We are building our own for less than half that price. The materials arrived at our house today and will hopefully be fabricated this weekend.
As of now the only items we need to be able to test our first batch on the new system are:
4-heating elements
4-element adapters
We will need more than these items to brew the way we want to. But these are the last items we need for this system to be able to run.
