    HERMS coil diameter and length for HLT

    Setting up my Herms unit, and am wanting some input on the diameter and length of the coil for my HLT. I will have two bulkhead fittings, each measuring 1/2 inch. Therefore I was thinking of using 1/2 inch cooper, partly due to the fact all of my lines fitting are 1/2 inch so it should help with...

    Keggle Temperature Probes

    I am in the process of constucting a HERMs setup utitlizing Keggles. I have plans to move the process to all electric. Therefore I am looking for a DIY on temperature probes. I will be running thermistor probes for the PID. I cannot find any info on this subject. How are most people...

    Sorry, just copied that list over. I meant to switch that 4 wire. I like the following setup, and thinking about using it. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f170/240vac-toolbox-control-panel-pics-184296/

    I don't know if I could consider it unsafe, but obviously the GFCI is added peace of mind. I don't know if you can tell but the outlet is probably less than 3 feet on the wall from the breaker box. So pulling a heavier gauge wire if needed should not be a problem. Bottom line though this...

    That should be no problem, I am gonna have my buddy come over and look at it this weekend. He said it was like the setup for a hot tub. He said you he would be able to look at the line entering the breaker box and be able to tell. $100 for a GFI breaker should not be a problem. Looking...

    It is not a GFI. Here are some pictures of what I have currently. I have a friend that is an electrican who said he would actually setup my box if I got the plans. I am sure I can have him setup a GFI if it is needed. I am not in a huge rush, but I am just eager to get stuff on order...

    Awesome, is there a scematic, or could you make one for how to wire all of this? Also, do you have a link to the first 5 items on the list? I am gonna assume which PID or SSR has some effect on wiring.

    Here is the link: http://www.highgravitybrew.com/ProductCart/pc/EBC-II-with-Infinite-Power-Control-158p3073.htm You can see the dial controller mounted on the side of the box. They have a 3 plug and a 4 plug option as well. Obviously a 3 plug would be ideal for me! I would be all for...

    I think I might not have been clear about what I meant about unplugging the HLT, and then plugging in the BK. If the BK had its own on/off switch that would be awesome, if not I was just saying I could unplug the heating element from the on/off switch and plug in the one for the BK. This...

    Yeah, there is a 30w. Its a breaker box, my house is about 10 yrs old. I was thinking dual temp sensors as a failsafe. Putting one in the MT and one in the HLT. I was thinking that because of how a ranco operates, but maybe I would not need 2 units with a PID? Can one PID monitor both, or...

    1. How many amps are available from your 240v outlet? It is a 220v 20 amp outlet. 2. Do you want to be able to run the HLT and BK at the same time? * this decision might already be made for you if the 240v outlet doesn't have enough amps available I do not want to run both at the same time...
