The vision of my home brewery was started from the vision of having a commercial end product and then building in reverse. This meant Sankey kegs, proper labeling, etc. Then basic process maps were put together, starting very high level (all obtained from online resources), then drilling down in more and more detail. Before I built my system I had never seen a beer made or seen an actual homebrew setup. I had never made any sort of beer before. Since I had an end vision, I never considered any other option than all-grain. The brewery had to be on wheels to go in and out of the garage. The brewery later became a RIMS and later a HERMS. The initial brewery had to be able to grow with me.
