It's -13 Deg. C outside now, my deck would make a good wort chiller right now.

I was thinking of using my Viking gas range, which puts out 15K BTU, for a heat source. Another option would be to use my old water heater burner. This would require a ventilated room since the water heater burner would put out too much CO.

I like your idea of your stone building for a micro-micro brewery. You could even use your coal for a heat source.

I have built a cedar shed (14' x 10'), which looks like a minature cabin, that could be used as a micro-micro brewery in the summer. This would require me to move out all my lawn equipment and kids toys.

Thanks for your further input.
