Fun at the Farm
We are putting up a building for the Hard Cider and Mead business and the foundation walls were poured today. The concrete guy thought that a pump truck would be the way to go and it certainly made things a piece of cake. The level of engineering on this truck is amazing, not only does it do an excellent job of pumping, there is a place for everything, the control system is very ergonomic and well thought out and the overall design is stellar.
Here are a few pics:
Just under 20 yards of mud -- the building is an engineered metal structure (A
Quonset Hut) about 25 by 40 feet and will hold our cider press, the fermentation tanks, the kegging and bottling equipment and our yeast lab.
Looking forward to getting up and running this spring. A lot of local people have tried our test batches and like them so the local interest is high...
