Is there a reason not to use the contactors Auber sells when building a 240v electric kettle? The price seems reasonable. http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=129

Yes, I did wire it up with just a little rewiring. My fridge has the same colored wires, so It's probably the same, but you should be able to check on the back of the fridge to make sure. What I did was splice the green wire into the neutral 120 leg coming off the wall power. Once you do that...

Thanks for the clarification!

I believe that TSP is Tri-Sodium-Phosphate, one of the chemicals in PBW. I could be wrong, so feel free to correct. ;)

So, my mini fridge required a little bit of fiddling to get everything running properly. As it turned out, I had 3 wires running to my stock thermostat, Grey=120V Hot from wall Blue= 120V Hot back to Compressor Green= Ground The Grey wire I split to feed the 1st terminal on the STC as well as...

The thermo in my fridge just has a black, white, and green wire, so I'm going to have to do some experimenting to figure out how to wire it up. Unless anyone has any ideas?

Very Nice! Would you mind sharing details of how you wired it up? I'm looking to do the exact same thing in my mini fridge.

Actually a large number of craft/small batch distillers are using smaller barrels as the time for a product to mature is shortened with more liquid being in contact with the barrel.

No offense, but just because you got paid $65 an hour, doesn't mean that you were worth that. The market conditions determine what your time is worth. Qualified designers are using the same CMS tools that are available to everyone. Why should they be paid so highly for using the same product...

As a fabricator and installer of custom countertops, Bartops should be 42" from the floor to the top of the counter Kitchen/prep counters 36" to the top Desk/Vanities 30" These measurements are at the optimized position for the appropriate stools or chairs, while still being comfortable for...

I think that I can get mine up to about 50*F. I may be able to get it up higher by playing with the adjustment screw, but I haven't tried.

I have the Haier model. Purchased a scratch and dent model off ebay, and added my own tower. The cost for me was considerably less than the BevFactory price. I actually installed the refer undercounter so the minor cosmetic defects don't show and don't bother me. I have been very happy with...

That's exactly what I am wanting to do. I'll post some pics when I get it all wired up.

How did you wire the temp control in? Did you run power to the temp control and splice the existing thermo wires into the cooling side, or something more involved than that?

Hey All, The other day I picked up a "defective" mini fridge that was being thrown out, figuring I would just use it as a heat only fermentation chamber, as I ferment in my garage during the winter where temps are usually in the low 50's. Turns out, all that's wrong with it is the thermostat...
