    Anyone used a bielmeier boil kettle?

    I checked out that website and I think one of those pots and an induction hob I found on eBay might be the way I go. I'll even save a few dollars. Or kroner.... Thanks for the help on not purchasing substandard equipment. This is why I love the forum.

    Anyone used a bielmeier boil kettle?

    Yeah that's what I was worried about. I actually live in Denmark and stuff is ridiculously expensive. Any suggestions on a induction plate and kettle? I haven't lived in Denmark long so I don't know all the places to source things and I'm still working on the language.

    PT100 Connection to panel suggestions?

    So also what i am seeing here is that if i want to use my current probe and attach it to a chasis Mount xlr connection the wires to my PID from my chasis connection also need to be thermocouple wires as well. or can i use ordinary electrical wire to finish off my connection?

    Has any one ever used this new pump?

    After posting this thread months ago i have finally been able to test some things out! this is a great little pump but i wish it did have a little faster flow rate. but it is only a 12v .5 inch pump. It will still work perfectly for mashing.
