In this video I show home brewers how I made my DIY 3-in-1 Brewing Chamber. This simple to make, all-in-one unit has put me in complete control of the brewing process, post brewday. it's essentially a fermentation/conditioning chamber, a Grainfather conical fermenter cooler/glycol chiller and a kegerator…..all in one. With this DIY setup I've gone from making good beers to making fantastic delicious beers that are as good if not better than some commercial beers. The good news is it costs very little to put together.

Aside from sanitation and yeast pitch rate, the most important thing to focus on is fermentation temperature. If you've ever tasted a beer that smells boozy, is overly fruity or has off-flavours then it's probably due to unstable fermentation temps. This DIY fermentation chamber has Switched Fermentation Control and gives me full control to ferment at a stable precise temperature.

Because this DIY system is essentially a fridge it allows me to place my fermenter inside, connect it up to an STC 1000 and drop the temperature to near-freezing while being able to precisely monitor and control the cold crashing temperature of the beer.

The DIY unit can also be used as a cooling system and glycol chiller for the Grainfather Conical Fermenter which gives me excellent fermentation control. A good fermentation environment starts with a clean and sterile fermenter, which has a consistent controlled temperature base and minimal exposure to oxygen. A stainless steel unit just like Grainfather’s will give you precise control over the fermentation process.

On top of everything else this DIY system later converts into an kegerator, ideal for homebrewers and beer enthusiasts to keep your kegs chilled and ready to dispense.
