I have been working on a controller and electric kettle. I used a diagram from PJ. Did a test of the system and noticed that the temperature (PID controlled) overshot - by 10 degrees! before I stopped.
Went back to study the diagram. Now I'm thinking that the PID is only controlling one 120v leg and that the other leg will keep heating constantly. This will be a problem for me if I am trying to use this to hold my mash temp steady.
Have I done all this work only to have a device that can't hold a temp?
Thanks for any help.
