    Melted wires in controller..need help

    All, I have used this brau supply controller for what has to be 5 years now with no issue. It is a 30amp controller running a pump and a 5500 w element. Yesterday I smelled an acetone smell coming from the controller. When I took it apart today this is what I saw. Is this salvageable or should...

    Unboxing the Nano from CO Brewing

    I just added a longer temp sensor through the sight glass so I could keep it and put the whirlpool in the now available temp probe hole.

    Excellent way to hold on stoppers, airlocks, blowoff setups

    Use a bit of rubbing alcohol. Always works for me.

    Unboxing the Nano from CO Brewing

    For a 6 gallon batch I have about 10 gallons of water for a mash. Approximately 8 of that is in the basket with the grain while recirculating. This is with a grain bill of 15lbs. 5.5 goes into the fermenter.

    Unboxing the Nano from CO Brewing

    I did brew last Monday with the SS manifold and whirlpool arm. Ss manifold worked great.

    New auber RTD probe with bru supply controller issue

    New auber RTD probe with bru supply controller issue

    I don't have an ohmmeter but I have another auber temp sensor that came with my kettle and it didn't work as well. Seems unlikely I would have two faulty temp sensors.

    New auber RTD probe with bru supply controller issue

    Guys, Got a new 8" auber RTD temp sensor. I have a brau supply single vessel 240 controller that I got last year. Works fine with the temp sensor provided. But with new 8" probe it registers HH on my controller. Any ideas? I messaged brau supply but thought I would see if you guys had any ideas.

    Unboxing the Nano from CO Brewing

    Converted my sight glass into a temp probe/sight glass and used the extra spot for the whirlpool arm. Also got the SSbrewsupply manifold. Hopefully this helps with efficiency as you guys have experienced. Better yet with consistency. We will see. Just glad to get rid of the recirculating arm...
