Beer & Wine Brewing
Home Newbies Corner

Welcome to our Brew Room

My newfound hobby is a joy. Building a handcrafted batch of excellent wine or beer is very rewarding. My first question to my Brewmister (Jeff Cox) was "can I make beer and wine that is as good as store-bought?"  He said, "no, what we make is far better". He was right.

I'm finally getting this section of my website going. I want to keep interesting things posted here. I'm just getting started on it so be patient and keep checking back.

Anyone with ideas, photos, or text that would add to this site, please email Guru or myself at the bottom of the page. I consider this "our" website so feel free to offer up your assistance. And if anyone has questions, email us and we will be glad help you.

COUNTER-FLOW WORT CHILLER

I made my own counter-flow wort chiller from instructions from Brew Your Own Magazine. Instructions were to use JB Weld, but I like to solder with silver solder. I also made mine to join a complete garden hose instead of cutting and using water hose clamps.

Here is how I laid it out before sweating the joints->
