Hey all. I am planning on building an all electric HERMS somewhat based on Hals electric brewery. Obviously not as bling bling but at least highly functional. I am going to use one march pump with quick disconnects to move water and wort around. I will be using PID's to monitor boil, mash, and hlt.
I will be using my 10 gallon rubbermaid round cooler for the mlt. I have a 15 gallon stainless bk, and another 10 gallon rubbermaid for the hlt on my current setup. My question is, should I sell my current rubbermaid cooler and get another 15 gallon stainless pot? Or can I use the cooler for the hlt? Or should I get two more stainless pots and insulate one for the mlt? I am going to use the same heater elements and most of the parts from the electric brewery build. I am a noob to electric brewing but I am quite good with electronics, I work on helicopter avionics in the military. I got tired of using 15 bucks worth of propane for a five gallon batch.
