Why would the base of a heating element rust in a RIMS setup? Many brewers advocate a RIMS tube that you can disassemble so no water is left inside between brewing. The reason cited is rust, but I'm struggling to understand this.
Isn't screwing the element into a RIMS tube no different than having it screwed into and constantly immersed in water in your hot water tank?
Thanks for the information, guys.
