I have three, but one is rubber top and bottom-Would work well for an electric application, but not for gas. @ Bruin Ale-Good luck, hit me up if you need help or to "contract out" a piece of your Rig.

Not yet, trying to keep the rig whole.

Yes its mine. Email me if interested. Thanks. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/for/2192415576.html

Beautiful rig, you should be proud of yourself.

CodeRage-Your the man :rockin: This is exactly the kind of information I have been looking for, looks like I will be doing some experimenting when I get home from work. Thanks again.

Anybody? This is the last part holding me up.

I used a 1" half coupling from More Beer which worked perfectly. I had it welded on the kettle, which is more expensive, but I have never had any problems with my element leaking and I can tighten it down tight without fear of leaks. QUESTION What settings are people running their PID's...

Yeah, I have a little more than half of your power available and its not a problem. I am running the water through somewhat slowly, but at a perfect rate for fly sparging. You could probably get by with using one of your elements in your RIMS system. 20 degree F raise in temp at max flow is...

I am speaking from limited experience here as I just built my system and have been testing this past weekend. First, for reference, I have a 5500 low density element running 220V through 2" stainless Steel. I am using an Auber PID with fuzzy logic (the $44.50 one I believe). I have yet to...

Great looking build!!! Keep up the good work.

Congrats man. That thing is awesome and brings the level up several notches from what I think anyone expected. I hope you and your wife enjoy it for many years.

Awesome job, I bet it speeds up brew day by a good amount. Combine this with brew in a bag and you could prob. Brew in a few hours total.

That thing is pretty impressive! I can't wait to see it in action and your report on the results. Great job man.

its pretty easy to rig the freezer door, I did it to my upright freezer. There were a bunch of screws all around the door, under the weatherstriping stuff on the door. Take them all off and mark your holes on a sheet of plastic cut to the same dimensions. I got a piece of 1/8" plastic from...

I use a $20 dollar hot plate from walmart that has a cast heating element on top and it has worked fine so far. I have avoided using my glass cooktop stove and any bare element. For $20 you should be safe going this route.

Anybody know where to source a flange like this? I would love to have at least one big fermenter for my bigger brews instead of splitting up to multiple carboys. Brewhead-Any chance the friend of yours can point us in the right direction for sourcing these flanges?

I could have been easily mistaken. All of the diagrams I had seen before building my set up used 120 to power up the PID. I thought this was neccessary so I replicated it. My set up works for me, especially because I use a 30 amp circut and pretty much max it out with my E-Kettle. I am glad...

If you can run something on lower voltage why wouldn't you? On top of that how would you regulate down the amount of power going into the tiny PID controller. I don't claim to be an electrician, but there is a reason there are adapters for most small electrical devices to regulate the power...
