    Cheap Ball Valve Actuator?

    I came across a zone valve for a home radiant heating system here, and noticed that you can buy just the motor for the valve here. I was wondering if these could be used to actuate a ball valve in a brewing system. If you could fabricate a mounting bracket and attach the motor to the stem...

    One PID or two?

    After reading through the thread titled "My Rims Job", I have been thinking about PID's.

On that system, a Brew-Magic clone, there were two heat...
