Hi guys, I've been brewing all grain for 3+ years now using a 8 gallon brew kettle with a Blichmann burner and two 10 gallon round coolers for MLT and HLT. It's served me well for 50 or so batches but I'd like to move up to 10 gallon batches and move indoors because I'm tired of fighting the wind and weather. So I'm working on designing a system using two 15 gallon kettles for the BK and MLT with a rims tube to keep the MLT at temp and allow mash out ramping. I'm planning on using one of my 10 gallon coolers as the HLT for the time being. I've been looking over P-J's wonderful diagrams but haven't seen one similar to what I'm planning. I'm looking to have :
--One 4500 240v element in the BK
--One 1500 240v element in the Rims tube
--be able to fire both simultaneously
--Two PIDS, Auberins timer, hook up for a single pump, e stop and I'd like to use the light up switches on Auberins website so I know I'll need to use contactors to the elements. I also like the wiring setup P-J used to insure the rims element could be turned on only if the pump was on. Anyone seen a diagram like the above? Thank you so much for any advice.
