    Question on Control Panel Power Cord

    I really don't want to buy 50 feet of cord that I only need 15 feet of. I guess what I don't get is how coleman cable can have the same 10/4 and in a 50 foot roll from home depot its rated at 30A and the 25 foot roll is rated at 25A when it looks like the exact same cord.

    Question on Control Panel Power Cord

    Hello all, I've been searching around and have't quite found a solid answer for my question. I am almost done building my electric system and am ready to get back to brewing after a 2+ year hiatus due to numerous factors. My setup is as follows: Spa panel wired to a 4 prong dryer cord...

    Best type of wedding ring for opening beers

    Mine is a comfort fit platinum ring and it works quite well for opening bottles. I haven't had too much trouble getting the lip of the cap with the comfort fit band and I have yet to see it scratch form opening a bottle. Only thing that would make it better would be to have it be a bit wider...

    OFFICIAL Kate the Great Russian Imperial Stout Clone

    Brewed this 3 years ago and it was my first big beer, was expecting poor efficiency and got very good efficiency so my batch finished at 13.2% ABV. Just opened one up for its 3 year birthday, this one has aged quite well. Port and oak have long faded but the stout itself is might tasty. I...

    What came in the mail for you today?

    My order from Auber with almost all my control panel parts, except the contactor. Turns out I forgot to order it. Found one on amazon that was prime eligible so hopefully I can still get the panel built this weekend.

    why are flanged receptacles the most expensive piece of build!!

    Slightly along the lines of this topic, is there any reason not to use flush mount locking receptacles instead of flanged locking receptacles? For example, here is the one I'm looking to use in my toolbox control panel build...

    Switching to Electric: Looking for critique of my plan

    I have another question about the E-stop. Would the red E-stop button from Auber work as well or as you have it diagrammed is the switch from automation direct required? Thanks again for all your help answering questions and providing your diagrams P-J.

    Switching to Electric: Looking for critique of my plan

    I brewed with propane for 2.5 years before having to take a hiatus at the end of 2012 to complete my Ph.D., move for a new job, and have a kid. I now live in an association that isn't keen on me brewing with my propane burner and I've been itching to start brewing again so I'm going to switch...

    Getting started with electric system question

    I'm doing something similar in starting out with just an ekettle since my association isn't keen on me running my propane burner on my patio. I'm gonna start with a 5500w element in my kettle and use it as both my HLT and BK. First version of the control panel is going to be 1 PID and I'm...

    Power Cable Question

    List of PJ Electrical Diagrams

    Perfect, thanks for the reply P-J. I don't care what it looks like, I just want it to be functional. I'll probably add the light in like the same drawing for the 4500W element scheme to indicate when I switch the element on.
