I have the capability to ferment (3) vessels at 11-12 gallons each and I had an idea how to ferment them all three at different temps and with a little brain-storming help from my buddy, this is what I came up with.
OK, I get the three controllers, but how does that control temps in one chamber?
Multi temp is definity a hot setup. I have a 2 temp setup but i use the low temp for serving kegs and the high temp for fermenting.
Huaco, thanks. I figured as much but it's what you did with the terminal blocks that I was really interested in. Also did you run hot and cold on slave receptacles or did you leave it hot for both as you only need it for single source control.
Yeah, I'm really liking it so far. In the future though
Yeah, I had some 22 gauge wire left from my control panel build. All I did was try to match gauge to what the probes wires were. You just don't want a huge resistance change from the probe to the RCA - controller wires. The controller evaluates the temperature based on resistance of the coupled wires in the probe end. If you mess with the resistance too much, it will throw off the reading. That can be adjusted but I would rather not go too crazy with it.
I don't think there are +/- with the probe wires. Just solder them on.
In the center pin cup? What about the jack? Do I just solder the two wires going to the controller to the center portion of the jack?
