I got into this lodo build project late last year. I was already thinking of building a more serious manually operated system, when I saw what Die_Beerery (shout-out) and some others had impressively accomplished. I hadn’t previously realized just how seriously brewing could be automated and scripted, and so decided to build something similar. I’m somewhat lazy, and it will be nice getting my brew-days back.
I want to build as much of the system as possible from scratch or used parts, and just didn’t see any other way to do so much metalwork, pipework, fabrication without welding. So this is as much a learning to properly weld alloys project as it is building a fully automated lodo brewery. It’s going to be a 3 vessel fully automated system that brews under nitrogen purge. As of early January, a few parts still remain to be ordered, and I’m about to start welding TC fittings onto my vessels throughout this month.
Lots of pictures so bear with me. (trying to embed images)
