My system is all electric, but I still managed a boil over. Problem is once you get close to boil temp, you have to switch to a power percentage to boil at the proper intensity. If it gets out of...

PEX has a memory and tends to go back to the shape it was extruded in. If you kink it, you can heat it with a heat gun and it will go back to the original round shape. I have a 100' coil that I put...

My first question would be, how did you boil? Also, was this all grain or extract?
