Thanks for the link to those connectors. I probably should have gone the RTD route to begin with. After scratching my head a little harder I finally read the note in the manual about not using copper wiring. Removed that and the XLR connector and went direct to the PID and all was good.

Just hooked up a Auber 2362 PID and a Liquid tight K type, TC-K100M1/2NPT temp probe. I put the PID in a box and used a XLR connector on the temp probe so I could connect/disconnect as needed. I'm making the move to 10g batches and wanted to do a trial run of sorts tonight to see how things...

I just got a 5 gallon whiskey barrel myself. How full did you fill the barrel? Was there any head space left in the barrel? It was recommended to me that I should not have any headspace in the barrel. I have about 6.5 gallons in my primary and want to make sure after transferring I will have...

I'm in....thanks!

I did that exact thing when I was testing it out with just water. I just totally had a dumb moment!

Never really intended on using this particular yeast as it had been sitting in a jar for probably a few months. So anyway I went thru the normal steps and made a starter and put it on my...

Awesome. Thanks for the quick replies.

Brewing a wheat beer today and made a starter last night. The starter is going strong but I'm wondering if I should let the starter settle down before pitching. I normally make a starter a few days before brewing, but I was out of town and couldn't do it till last night. Thoughts?
