Brew Cart Project

The Quest for the Ultimate Brew Cart

This summer I took on the task of upgrading my home brewery by designing and building a brew cart. In my quest to find the perfect brew cart I couldn't find anything that fit my style and price range. As a result I decided to build my own. This post is my way of sharing my project with the world. Hopefully I'll gain a few bragging rights in the process. I will be posting photos to document the progress of my brew cart. I hope you enjoy them. Cheers!

The Frame

Here is the first pic in my quest for the ultimate brew cart series.

Pic 1 - The Frame

This was my first welding project. The frame was constructed out of 1'' square tubing. It measures 54'' long by 22'' wide.

Propane Tank Holders

Here are pics 2-4 in my quest for the ultimate brew cart series.

The cart holds two standard gas grill propane tanks.  I cut the legs off of my Bayou propane burners to make the rings that hold the propane tanks to the cart.

 

The Wheels

Here is pic 5 in my quest for the ultimate brew cart series.

 

Got these wheels from Tractor Supply. They work great for a garage floor, but not so great if you need to go on a gravel driveway.
