So I'm finally blowing the dust of my Brewtroller and getting back at it. My last stopping point was wiring the 12vdc relay. I actually have the same one used in Blackhart brewery I believe. You can see it here: Relay My issue is I can't seem to get it work, I know there is power coming...

I have been using an inline 30A GFCI cable for several years, it has served me well, unit today. Each time I use the cord, I will do a test trip prior to connecting, and after connecting. Today was just like any other day, plugged into control panel, which has March pump built in. I was able...

In the process on finishing up plumbing for brewery. I'd like to switch all my compression ferrules over to orings. However do I just match up the ID or should I go smaller to its tighter. I realize you are supposed to use 2 orings instead of ferrule. Are these sizes correct? 1/4...

I did a little search and was unable to find refernce to this brand of fitting. I know Swaglok is the kleenex of compression fittings, however I can save roughly $25 by going Hylok. I realize I'll have to change the ferrules to orings, but Hylok are still 2/3 the price of Swaglok.

Just curious if anyone has a few spares. I'm looking for 4 to finish a project but if the price is right I would take up to 6. I've found them online for $14 a piece, but noticed some auctions went for far less. Payment can be made by Paypal and located in 45449 for shipping cost reference...

I'm planning on silver soldering my element connection, and have built a keg tool in the past. My question is what size reducer should I order for my 1" coupling. I read a few post that used 1" x 1.5" but it was mentioned it was way to big and only needed pulled like half way. I'm pulling...

Hey guys, I just wanted to see if I could get some opinions on a silver solder question. Are there pros/cons to dimpling out/in? On my keggle I pulled the dimple from the inside out, but I'm considering pulling the dimple in on my bayou classics. The following is my reasoning but I...

So today I got my new 82qt kettle, and it's time to start making holes. I've used a step bit in the past but being a thinner wall I wanted to use a punch. I've seen that it makes a much cleaner hole. My question is about the harbor freight punch set: HERE It is electrical conduits so...

I'm looking at purchasing new stock pots over my keggles for my automated brewery. I will be using dc pumps for automation simplicity. They are rated for 3 gal/m. What do you guys think my batch limitation will be, as everything will be automated, transfer time really isn't an issue. However...

Just curious if I could get some ideas from everyone. I've put off my automated enclosure long enough and looking to get the inside wired. (Previously mounted and drilled all external holes) My question is what tools do I need in order to tap the backpanel. It is a rather thick steel, in...

HBT, I'll be spending a week in Silver Lake, IN starting Saturday. I already have plans to make it to Mad Anthony's tap room in Warsaw, but curious what else there is? If you have any suggestions within a 45 mile radius please let me know. Thank You, Squeeky

I ordered some 1/4" stainless compression fittings for my temp probes, but they did not include o-rings. I'm assuming they are size -010, but can someone please confirm prior to me placing an order. Squeeky

Hey guys, I got my fittings order in today and I have a slight issue. I ordered 3x 1/2 MPT x 1/4" tubing compression for my temp probes. The fittings I received are Swagelock, however they do not work as I expected. The 1/4" compression is tapered so that the probe will not fit all the way...

I've almost completed my purchases for the new automated brewery. I had one question though. I will be using female twist locks on the CP side (I realize that a female in not preferred on power in) and male twist on elements. Power IN Cable has Hubbell 2721 Control has Hubbell 2726...

HBT, Anyone using DIN mount SSRs? I'm looking at building my automated control panel and curios about using DIN rail SSRs. I realize it's just a heatsink but do they do a better job then the traditional panel mount HS? I would likely try to place it inline on same rail as other terminals...
