As if there are not enough eBIAB build threads, here is my take on an electric BIAB brewery. I am going to use a 4500W / 240V heating element in a 42qt aluminum Bayou Classic stock pot. After about a month of gathering parts I was finally able to start assembling everything.
So far I have drilled all the holes into the enclosure and dry fitted all the parts. I hope to start wiring everything up tomorrow and fit the pot in a few days. Thanks to P-J for the wiring diagrams he has provided that inspired the wiring, and Kal for his awesome electric brewery from which I have stolen many ideas. Finally without further ado here are the pics.
