About 5 years or so ago, I had started building a 12 x 16 storage shed as my girlfriend didn't have one when I had rented my house and moved there and then I moved it back to my house when she sold her house.

It was used for storage and we kept on contemplating converting it into a winery / beer room.

Finally we are nearing completion.

here's a few pics.

decided to finish the inside with 5" beaded pine with a clear coating on it.

Wanted to make it nice in case we ever purchase some land by a River and want to move it there.

2 tap kegerator (2 kegs, taps and c02 tank), 100's of bottles, 150 bottle wine rack, all kinds of carboys, primary's, heat belts, filter machine and all kinds of hoses and odds and ends.
 
One of the good thing is the SUN doesn't have a chance to shine much in, so it stays a bit cooler during our high temp days. Before I had it insulated the sun would really warm it up, now not so much. if we keep it closed off, it stays cool most of the day
 
Looking good. Love the tile floor but it is bottle "unfriendly" so be careful! Looks like you still need a large workspace as well as a deep mop sink of sorts for cleaning bottles up etc. but coming along very nicely!
 
Thanks

It's not tiles, it's vinyl flooring. I did some more today.

We do have a janitor tube and the water is plumbed to it and the drain is also hooked up.

Working bench.

Yes security system is in the works.

What possibilities? We are still in planning stage until done. 1 thing at a time


Thanks
