I am looking at building a Electric All Grain Setup with an Electric HLT at the moment. I am thinking about going the route of using 120V elements as compared to the 240V elements.
Does anyone have any recommendations on what 120V elements to use?
This one is a Camaco 1500W Ultra Low Watt Density

Or should I go with a Higher Wattage saw 2000W

Now when building this I am considering using 2 120V elements as I can have two outlets on different breakers available.
Also anyone have first hand experience of the time it would take for 120V elements to heat up a HLT. I would only be heating say 5 to 10 gallons at a time.
