I printed one of the boxes a couple of months ago. Everything fits really well. The LCD screen will be tight in the hole provide, the Arduino holes are spot on. You won't be able to use a GFIC outlet though. So make sure you have one of those upstream from the controller.
Search for a spreadsheet titled “electric heat.xls”. It’s great for planning your electric brewery. Answers questions about how long it will take to get to a certain from a certain temp, etc. I found it valuable in assessing what element to use.
Get out your voltage meter. If you don't have one, get one for cheap at your local electronics store.
The voltage that switches the relays is DC. The relay is switching an AC circuit. There's a pretty big difference.
This actually sounds like the SSR might be stuck in the closed position. If you have a spare one, swap it out and see if that doesn't resolve the issue.
Worthy of mention - make sure you buy a quality micro SD card (like SanDisk) for your PI's hard drive. LOTS of issues raised by using a PI is due to a corrupt SD card that can't handle having the power being unplugged/plugged in. ALSO make sure you have a good process to back it up AND restore...
Trace the power lines from the input to the PIDS.
Are switches working ok?
Do you have a multimeter with which to check the voltages and connectivity of wires and components?
Pictures of the inside would be most helpful.
Agreed doug293cz, I should have added that to my comments. These might be a starting point, but definitely need to add contactors for all incoming power and to switch each phased leg.
Attached are a couple of drawing from P-J Meuth. He did these a long time ago and they might actually need to be updated. Use these at you're own risk.
Has anyone brewed this recently? I'm planning to do so in a week or two and am looking to see if there are additional comments.
My only experience with using habaneros in beer was with a porter. Then I made an extract of 4 cut up habs (no seeds or white flesh) in 3 cups of vodka. Let them soak...
I bought and installed the Brew Boss steam condenser a couple of weeks ago and was able to use it in a brew two weekends ago.
It comes with a gasket that is nothing more than a piece of 1/2” silicon hose that has a slit in it. Cut to fit your kettle. It does help seal the lid.
Once at a boil...
