I started off like most home brewers, a couple of plastic buckets and a kit. I told my wife, “this is all that I will ever need to make beer with.”  Well, thousands of dollars later I have the system that I am really proud of.

My brewery is housed in a 10-foot x 16-foot building next to my house. The brewing system is a three tier 10-gallon (38-L) all stainless steel piped system (an electric heat exchange recirculating mash system  or “EHERMS”). 

The best part of building this system was the planning and the tweaking. It never seems to end. I am also a member of the Alcohol Through Fermentation (ATF) Home-brew club in New Bern, North Carolina and we make some great brews!

Steve Daly’s brewing set up has some juice. It is an electric heat exchange 
recirculating mash system (EHERMS).

EHERMS
<p>This kettle is dually heated with separate heating elements, giving it the capability to bring wort to a boil, then shut one down. </p>

Kettle
Steve added two electric temperature 
control elements for accurate and precise heating of his liquor tank and kettle.

Electric Temperature Control
Here the “super chilled” wort is at 60 ºF 
(16 ºC) and ready to be inoculated with the lively yeast starter.
