Sold!

--- SOLD ---- Hi everyone, last year for Christmas I received a 200$ gift card for Northern Brewer. The problem is I have dialed in my rig to my likings and don't have the space to upgrade to a larger system. As I try to buy some bells and whistles to accompany my setup, I still come very...

I really burned a batch this weekend using 4 lbs of pumpkin in the boil of an E-BIAB. I just tasted a sample, having thought I burned it, and yes, it's true. So, if other E-BIAB'ers are thinking of a pumpkin beer, be careful... :)

love the thread - will check in for more updates! Keep it going!

Good deal. Thanks for all your help...what would I do without HBT.

Do you mean plugging up that hole so there is no possibility for current to pass though? If so, would silicon caulk work?

badnews - I got the connectors from our favorite online shopping outlet. Can't remember which vender, some audio/electronic company from TX. Shipping was cheap and they arrived really fast. Message me if you want me to go back and look up the name of the company for you.

Thanks for the response. The GFCI did not trip. I do recall some soot in the gang box. I'll have a look tomorrow, re-checking the connection. Appreciate your help!

Here is my set-up: 2 1500w (120v) camco stubby elements (the ones the you buy thinking they are ULWD...), one of which is connected to a PID, the other is directly connected to the wall outlet and used as needed to bring wort to a boil. I recirculate the mash through a pump and sparge arm...

I moved to the Beaches, outside of Jacksonville.
