Hoghead Brewing
Hi, sorry if this has been covered, I couldn't find it. I brewed with my new setup last weekend. It's a 3 vessel system with one 5500w element and one pump for now. I didn't put in a contactor in the element circuit, but am going to before I brew again. My question is if I just turn off the contactor and leave the PID temperature setting the same, will the PID re-adjust because the temp is not responding?
As I used the water from the HLT, I lowered the temp all the way down thinking that the element wouldn't fire. It continued to come on a few times until I switched to manual control at 0%. Is that normal?
Also will this contactor work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/DEFINITE-PU...455?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43b698ca7f
Thanks
