Home » Club Gear » Club Breweries » Sideburn Brewery - Rick Burnside Members Systems - Sideburn Brewery - Rick Burnside     Rick Burnside's system is a form of the classic, take advantage of your enviroment type of setup. Gravity fed and cooler tun fueled, Rick's system is heated with 2 main burners, plus a third burner and kettle for use in decoctions or adjunct mashes for his famous version of the classic Dougweiser. Here Rick's system is getting a workout brewing his Christmas ale.     Stirring up the boil kettle, a brewing partner gets the whirlpool set to settle the hops and hot break.     Brewer's need fuel too. Please note the classy presentation.     Rick runs a large cooler lauter tun. Notice the copper sparging pipe installed in the top. The threaded connection is just visible at the top left.     In a slightly different configuration than most brewers boilers, Rick has installed a copper ring manifold in the bottom. Just as with a mash tun, this helps filter out the hops and protein.     Keeping things cool and regulated is Rick's chest freezer. Notice that Rick runs all his blowoffs into the same pot.     A small beer? Not today.
