    For Sale Monster Mill With Motor

    This is a Monster Mill 2 roller in good condition with the hopper. Along with it is a Malt Muncher motor that has never been used. You will need to get the couplings to join one another. I bought a bigger set up to replace this one. This mill has been great for me! $150

    Infussion Mash Tun Efficiency Issues

    Good evening all. Anyone have efficiency issues with the SS Brewtech Infussion Mash Tun? I have the 20 gallon. I recirculate with and electric HERMS coil along with their sparge arm. I know most people recirculate at 1 gallon per minute. When I did this my efficiency dropped 10 points! So at 1...

    Auber Contactor

    I have 2 220v Auber contactors. I have them being feed with 2 hot's on one side then they feed into my SSR's. I have it being turned on with a switch. I have no power coming out of the contactors. It seems to be energized because I can here it humming. Here is a link to the contactors I have...

    Control Panel & Elements

    John you don't suggest using one PID and switching between 2 temp probes? Would you suggest using 2 PID's and have them control 1 element in my HLT instead? I'm open to different ideas. I know a lot of people do things in different ways. I just want the best setup for the best outcome.

    GFCI Breakers

    I'm going to do a 50a 220v GFCI breaker in my main house panel. Run a 220v line to a 4 wire receptacle. Then have my control panel plug into that. Inside of my control panel I'll have 2 separate 30a breakers for each of my elements. This seems to make the most sense to me and be the cleanest way...

    GFCI Breakers

    I'm not going to do a spa panel. I need to run a 220 line anyhow. So I'm just going to do a 50a GFCI breaker in my main house panel. Thanks for looking out though craigmw.

    Control Panel & Elements

    I'll go with a 50a GFCI, 40a SSR's, and 30a breakers for each element within the panel. Thanks for all of the help everyone!

    Control Panel & Elements

    Very good. So 25a SSR's should be more than enough for each element as well? Thanks for the reply CadiBrewer!

    GFCI Breakers

    I'm in the process of building my panel. I'm going to have 2 5500 watt elements also a 2 outlet 110v for 2 chugger pumps. I don't believe I will have both elements firing at 1 time. Probably just an element and a pump. Long story short. What size GFCI breaker should I get? Also I'd like to put a...

    Control Panel & Elements

    Does anyone know how many amps these elements draw typically? I'm starting to build my panel and I'm trying to figure out how big of a GFCI breaker I should have also I would like to put separate breakers inside the panel for the elements.

    Sam's Brew Box

    That turned out amazing! Good luck with the rest of it. I may have questions for you once I start putting my panel together.

    Control Panel & Elements

    You talked me into the $41 elements. After some research I'm going with 2 of your hot pods as well. And I'm going to order a bunch of cam locks from you too. Thanks for all of the feedback everyone.

    Control Panel & Elements

    Thanks for all of the feedback everyone. I really don't want to have to clean rust off of the elements every time I use them. That's why I would want to go with the the all SS version.

    GFCI Breakers

    I couldn't agree with you more! I'll spend the extra $10 to make it look cleaner. Also I do plan on putting a cutoff switch on the panel. I think it is a good idea.

    GFCI Breakers

    Thank you for the input. Much appreciated! I will need to do a 4 wire set up then because I definitely want to run pumps.
