Threw this together in about 45 minutes very simple to wire and adjust. Got a motor off ebay ~$40 ge 177 rpm Lovejoy connections L070 1/2" for the motor and 3/8" for the Barley Crusher. (Amazon) 20 mfd capacitor (match the motors capacitance) ~$10 (Amazon) Dpst switch and a 4" x 6" project...

Also added on a new SS sparge arm with a union for each detachment.

Did some more up grades! My buddy has access to a laser etcher so he did all the labels on the panel for me that way and threw on some hops to class is up a bit. Looks great, works great.

Big beer for me!

Controller upgrade inspired by The Electric Brewery, thanks Kal. XLR QD's for 2 rtd probe, electronic float valve to control water solenoid for HLT, and the power supply for the gas solenoids. Indepent oulets for 2 pumps, water solenoid and an auxiliary for keg/carboy cleaner or mill

which love controller are you using? I have the ts2 which gives 1k ohm ptc in the specs but doesnt give the ntc spec. It definitely has the option for ntc on the controller though

did you use a 10k ohm ntc thermistor? I tried to get the same one via pictures but I ended up getting a 100k ohm

how did you do this?

Rustym.... how did you mount the drill?

Just looking for a new homebrew project. Anybody have a DIY grist case for grain in?
