Thought I read that someone else had trouble with a ripple element touching the side of the 1.5" TC once it was soldered in, I think it was a different thread. Regardless, I think I'd prefer the 2" because I would like to use this: http://www.stilldragon.com/element-guard-kit-and-adapters.html...

Does anyone have a list of parts I would need for building the dimple tool for a 2" tri clamp ferrule. I've read most of this thread but haven't seen one that does not use a custom fabricated piece instead of off the shelf parts. I was thinking this would work for the concentric reducer...

Yep, totally makes sense! Thanks for the pointers, as I plan on posting images as I put this thing together.

Thank you P-J, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with posting the image, I cannot get it to display that bar that says "click here to see full size" Kind of off topic but how do I do that? anyway, yes that does say 3500wt on the RIMS, I haven't picked the element yet but I'm trying to ensure...

Here should be larger now:

Thanks P-J So here it is, I've studied your many diagrams as well as reviewed the Auberins instructions for the various components so I'm a good 90-95% sure this diagram is correct but when dealing with 240v you need to be 100%! Anyway thank you so much for looking this over, I surly welcome...

PJ, I've been playing around with a couple of your diagrams and I think I've figured out how to wire up the panel the correct way. I resigned myself to the fact that in panel breakers are probably the best way to go for safety and protection. I took one of your diagrams for a 50a eherms...

Maybe this will help a bit. This diagram of yours is for a BIAB setup but everything is exactly what I'm trying to do for my BK so I would just like to add the rims element circuitry plus the interlock between the rims and pump power. Either with 4500w BK / 1500w RIMS if that will be enough or...

P-J, Thank you very much for your reply. Yes I intend on using a GFCI breaker in my main box and run either 10/3 to a dryer outlet for 30a or if needed go up to 40 or 50 amp with a range outlet and run 6/3. I choose 4500 +1500 watts first because I believe it keeps me with a 30a outlet...

Hi guys, I've been brewing all grain for 3+ years now using a 8 gallon brew kettle with a Blichmann burner and two 10 gallon round coolers for MLT and HLT. It's served me well for 50 or so batches but I'd like to move up to 10 gallon batches and move indoors because I'm tired of fighting the...

pick me!!

I got mine last night. They actually look great! No major dents, stickers removed, outside polished, all new seals and shipped holding pressure. I couldn't ask for anything more from used kegs. You gotta realize all these kegs are at least 20 yrs old (probably more like 30 plus) and were...

Well, I just got my tracking number a few minutes ago so it looks like they are on the way! I agree if they are as nice as they claim, the wait was definitely worth it. Has anyone here received theirs yet from this new lot? How do they look?

No shipping notice for me yet. I must be low on the list (ordered 4/27).
