I bought the Brutus Plans...
I spent countless hours scouring the board looking at people's builds...
I started buying parts...

Now, I need some of your help to get me over the finish line...

I'm awesome at starting projects and getting 70% of the way through then getting stuck, getting burned out, and sitting there with a half built fermentation fridge or torn apart upright freezer, depending on how you look at it..

Here is what I know I want...

19.8 gallon vessels from stout brand kettles & HERMS setup (these are on order)

Here's what else I've already pieced together

- 2 March pumps (809 & 815)
- 2 Auberin PIDs
- 2 Honeywell SV9501M2528 gas valves
- 2 Honeywell Honeywell Q3450C1185 pilot burners w LP conversion
- 2 Foot mounted 120 Vac Transformer with 9 in. leadwires and plastic end caps


I need help on picking out my 2 burners, i was looking at the ones from agrisupply, the bg-14, but am open to other suggestions...

Here's a mockup of the control panel that I drew up as well...


I am looking to direct fire the HLT & BK and circulate the Mash through the HERMS,

Can I get some suggestions as to what else I'm going to need?

suggestions on burners?
 
You did not list the pilot or ignition (just an oversight?)
You could get away with a BG12 for the HLT
High Pressure Regulator
Low Pressure regulator
Thermocouples or RTDs
1 Gazillion dollars in fittings

And a long list of things you'll need to get that you forgot to put on your lists (common first build malady syndrome)

Burner Mounts & Pump Mounts (from us of course)
