I am an extract brewer at present. I've had the chance to see a few HERMS and RIM all-grain systems at work, and want to get a HERMS 10 gallon system by spring. Fortunately or unfortunately, many of the folks in my local brew club are engineers, and look at my funny when I explain that, no, I do not have the skills to design and build my own. I am handy with tools, but have zero knowledge of electrical engineering, circuits, etc, and modest experience with plumbing.
Therefore, I have two options:
1) buy a HERMS system
2) build one using VERY specific instructions, including some guidance as to where to find carts, pumps, etc.
So, does anyone know of vendors or regular folk who sell such systems (I am in Texas, if that matters)? Alternatively, are there places one can get a SPECIFIC, step-by-step how-to-build-your-own guide?
FYI, when I say specific, I mean "put tab A into slot B," not "build your cart, then attach the control panel you designed...."
The engineering-impaired thank you
