Greetings Homebrewers.
I'm seeking a source of information about the design of a small brewery related to the physical characteristics (pumps, plumbing, valves) rather than the automation POV. I am asking here because a great many of you have started build threads from the POV of automation, but I'm more looking for ideas on how to build the physical plant first.
Never having run a batch in a home "system" (as opposed to a cooler and a kettle) I'm not really sure of what I should be looking for and I don't want to reinvent the wheel. Right now in my head, I've gotten as far as "RIMS or HERMS, and I'll probably need a pump or two." So, that's my starting point.
Is there a different forum for that entirely, or is it in this one but buried?
