hey bobby. I actually would only run the 16s for mashing with your 12”rims tube and a 240v 2500 watt ulwd folded element. I am currently in Belgium and was assuming the GFCI plug would be the only thing I would have to swap out. Is that correct? I do have a 40 amp ase and heat sink if needed.

I just wanted to see if I swap out the 110v GFCI cord that comes with the inkbird with a 240v GFCI (RCBO) cord, will that make it 240 v friendly with no other adjustments needed? I see that outputs are 110/220v for heat and pump. I just want to make sure before attempting this. Thanks for the...

Why do you prefer the 3 inch lid? On your 3 inch lid what accessories are you running? Did you add a 1.5 inch hole for the transfer kit? That triclover sampler sounds good too ! Which one did you go with? Do you guys happen to know if you could buy the cooling coils by itself without the...

Wow, thank you for the great information! You definitely answered my questions and helped me with a few decisions. So I will keep the regular lid, skip the blow off tube, and get the pressure kit and sampling valve. Butterfly valves will definitely be on the upgrade list as well. Currently I...

Hey everyone, I was just hoping to get suggestions. I just ordered my 14 gallon Chronical (non-BME). I am looking for some accessories. I want to have a blow off cane, be able to pressure transfer, and have a way to dry hop with minimum o2. Anyone have some recommendations? I am not sure if...

I know this is an old post, but I have had this cart for a few years and now that I have moved to 10 gallon batches the burners are not enough. If there is a little wind I cannot get my wort boiling. If there is no wind it takes forever to get a minimal boil. I am not sure how you guys were...

Thanks for all the help! I re-applied thermal grease and mounted the ssr/heatsink inside the enclosure. Did a test step mash and boil and everything worked perfectly! Again thanks everyone.

Thanks for all of the help going to mess with it after work then hopefully be able to test it after work tomorrow.

I will look again when i get home from work, now that you put it that way i may have a small gap. It has been a while since i built that panel but for some reason i thought i could cut the square and barely mount them. So, that might be the issue, i may have a gap.

I am native 240v... I live in Belgium. I have live, neutral, ground

Thanks for the info, i guess i will either upgrade the heat sink or get one rated higher.

Pretty much cut a square out at the top and connected them through the hole.

Here is the ssr and heat sink i have. I bought it on amazon.

Here is a pic of my setup. I am just using the normal heatsink that came with the ssr.

Actually it could be that. I do have an indicator light for my element and it stayed on during the time i described. I will look into that, never heard of that before. The ssr is brand new so i hope there isn't an issue.
