    why are PID's so much more popular than PLC?

    Why would you add vfd drives on a system with lights, pushbuttons and switches? Isnt the beauty of manual rig having a manual valve on a pump discharge to adjust flow?

    My beer in a local brewery...

    My beer in a local brewery...

    I have been approached ( through a friend) by a new start up brewery that wants my one of my beers there. They had my beer at an event awhile back. They know a friend of mine, so that's how it tied together. I don't know what to expect when I talk with them. Anyone else had this experience?

    Electrical element not turning on

    Did you test each leg to ground? If you have 120 with one lead on ground and one on power, what do you get? Sounds like it may be a bad connection.

    Gravity measurements would answer your question. Could be stuck or slow fermentation.
