If I have the Auber and the thermocoupler what else will I need to wire it properly? Which type of relay would be needed? I may just say screw the fridge idea and go to a keezer, but I would like to control the temp of the fridge so that it could possibly be a fermentation area and not a...

I am willing to use any type of automated system. I just knew that Auber was a common type found here. Is there a better type of control that would be applicable to this setup?

I recently scored a fridge and kegarator conversion kit including regulator and tap for just over 100 bucks on CL. My wife said that I can do whatever I want with the fridge, but she still wants to use the freezer for extra storage. I am hoping that the usual experts on here can help me. I...

Thanks for the welcome!

Welcome to the most addictive hobby ever. Glad to see another person from CO on here!

I guess that since I have been active on the DIY portion of this site that it was about time that I introduced myself. I started brewing about two years ago and have since done about 12 martial-mash/extract kits. I have already started to keg all of my beer and have thus learned that bottles...

Welcome back. I am off on another tour in about 5 months, this time Afghanistan, I hope you catch up for lost brewing time!

I am currently at Fort Sill in "wonderful" Lawton, OK and SN, Left Hand, Rogue...you name the big ones are all really expensive. You can't even find that great of deals on beers at the military Class 6 store. Can the local brewpubs not pay extra tax like the OK+ system in order to brew a...

I am glad to see another military brewer here! I just had to stop brewing for about 6 months due to my training schedule here in wonderful OK, but will start as soon as I am in CO. I love this system and am going to use the 1500W 120V Low density element in mine. I am however also going to...

Thank you for this post! I can't wait to make mine...

Thank you for the input...I am currently working on a duel heating (gas and RIMS) system...I especially like this system https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/simple-brewing-est-2009-build-147021/ with some changes.

I am interested in building a RIMS system similar to https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/rims-dummies-114997/ what is the reason that you would use a low density verse high density element. If someone could explain it would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like a great project...one of many that I am hoping to start soon.

I just want to say that I think that this is an awesome system that I would love make someday. I realize though reading all the posts that there seem to be a number of issues that have been addressed with the system. Any advice on these would be greatly appreciated. 1. Could the issue with...

Awesome Job!
