I am on the fence about building a RIMS tube and wondering what the noticeable benefits are? I brew all grain and have always had problems with efficiency. I use a 10 gal cooler with false bottom.and spathe from a 5 gal cooler with copper spathe arm. I was thinking of a pump and RIMS tube that I could attach to the cooler to keep temps Evan throughout mash. I want to builds 120 v tube and control panel that I can later upgrade to a full e-brew system similar to Kal's, but with a RIMS, so as to not waste money but slowly build up my system. My true question is what being its can I gain from a RIMS and is it worth the close to $1k price tag that is associated with doing it right. Or? Is there a better way of beginning my upgrade to e-brewing? Also I brew in my kitchen now and do full boils on my stove, a 25,000 btu burner. I brew all grain 5gal batches.
