I think that is what the Rims protect does on my Brew Commander although I've never used it.

Ok I see. Temp probe has to be located at the exit of the rims so that doesn't occur. It cannot be put in the mash tun or at the entry to rims.

That sounds similar to the guy sitting next to me at a bars point. So if one were in space, no atmosphere, could they not see the sun or just not the radiation emitted from the sun?

My limited research advised to make damn sure wort is pumping through it before turning it on!

Probably a beer theory. Ive actually heard it more than once though.

A nice burn got me thinking about the sun. It seems simple, big flaming ball at the center of the solar system. We see it every day, no big deal. Looking a little deeper, it's not burning fuel as most would assume but that it is Nuclear Fusion of hydrogen and helium. A few years back, someone...

Circling back. Not really thrilled with anything I tried, although the two vessel I tried worked. Considering a rims tube to eliminate the e-herms tank. I'm controlling with a brew commander, I have an extra fold back 3500w element but not sure what would be ideal. Biab in the 15g kettle w/...
