Brew Shed Size

[mickgall]

Hi all

I'm looking to make a brew shed in the garden and have a spot in mind. It is unfortunately a bit on the small side and would only accommodate a shed about 6X4. Would this be too small. Any advice appreciated.

Cheers Mick

What sort of brewing are you looking to do - kit, extract or full ag? Do you have a kit list in mind we could help 'size' up. 6x4 would need some planning but I've have thought it would be ok with careful layout/ingenuity.

6 x 4 is very small, not saying it cant be done, but will be cramped

I think you'll be fine to do kits with a shelf across the back and good use of smaller shelves and hooks.

If you're going full ag you're going to struggle. However, is there a possibility of hinging one side of the shed (so it can be lifted and propped up) while working (in other words you then don't need space to get in the shed yourself) - like a shopping centre mobile phone case stall!!
