Ok, I've spent the last fifteen minutes searching their website and can not seem to find what you are talking about. Can you help a brotha out? Do you get the thermometer from Northern brewer as well?

Thanks

THIS THERMOMETER INSTALL is not from any brew store. I have a whole thread here on this system, but the quick and dirty is this.

Drill a 1" dia hole with a hole saw
Plug it with a #5.5 SOLID stopper
SHOVE a probe thermometer through it... (after drilling a small hole through it)

Seals perfectly, it costs maybe $10 total...

Get the thermometer at Target, get the stopper from anywhere, and get a drill from your neighbor. No need to waste $$$ on an overly complicated contraption and then also paying shipping.

ENJOY!

Stay tuned for my COOLER HERMS heat exchanger build for this system as well...
