So I got the 30 year old coleman esky out of the shed. Built up a mash maifold, put in a ball valve and we have a mash tun. Not initially realising I had the tools to solder copper tube I built a fly sparge arm for the esky.
My mate Gumtree showed me the way to a 48 litre urn to supply hot water and a used keg which I have cut the top out, installed a heater, taps and gauges and turned it into a wort boiler ( full of cleaner in pic ) and I also got a pump to move boiling liquids around. Add hoses and connectors and we got a Brew House. It seems you treat it as food once it's in the boiler. Kegs are stainless steel as are all the fittings.
I recon about 2 weeks and we'll be cooking beer.
