so this is all kind of getting convoluted. :ban: Maybe I should ask this instead. What is the cheapest/safest/simplest way to use my 50amp outlet? In other words, what is the least amount of work, cheapest, but also "safe"? What are the downsides of just using a 6 guage or 10 guage...

I was looking for other diagrams and found this: As with the other diagram, I'm still wondering what my best option is for stepping down the 50 safely? How exactly do I do that?

Thanks for the clarifications and support. What would you suggest? Build a box like the one in the diagram above? I knew the plug and play idea was too easy haha.

Wow, this is really great information and really helpful. I do have a few questions and things I need clarified (because I'm so new to this). So I need to find a spa panel that can plug into my outlet. This is the receptacle if anyone's curious...

Isn't the GFCI breaker in the electrical box right? Basically, it's there to trip if there's too much current or something goes wrong? If it's not GFCI what are the advantages of going the Spa Panel route? Thanks!

What gage cord would be appropriate? If I'm just pulling 30 amps tops could I go with a 30 amp cord or would I need to upgrade to something higher? Is there even such a thing? Thanks for your help!

Hello! My wife is a potter and she uses a 50 amp electrical receptacle for her kiln. I would like to build my own electric kettle and use that outlet for my kettle and element. My question is this. If I am using the standard 5500w 240 element and cord rated for 30amps and attach the...

Being from Georgia I'm a sucker for pecans. I might try this recipe minus the maple syrup. Thanks for posting it!

Let me just say that the pilsner and tettnanger saison was absolutely fantastic. Brew this beer in the summer ever year. Sooooo good.

Awesome. I've loved your last sale and I will certainly buy again once you post details. Cheers

Hi all, I'm hoping that your expertise can help me make a human powered mill using a bike and bike parts. I need to get in shape and one way to do this is to use my own energy rather than electric energy. Anyway, I don't even know where to start but I assume that you awesome people can help...

I made the same smash and it was fantastic. It sort of tastes like a flower.

I've only used Maris otter and never Vienna but I'm sure either would be fine. MO has a nice bread flavor when compared to other malts.
