Thanks!

Due to limited time available Saturday I am considering mashing and sparging my next brew tomorrow night and boiling it Saturday morning. I have the ability to hold the wort temp at whatever is desired. My thinking is to keep the temp of the wort high enough to not have to worry about souring...

Thanks for opportunity!

I end up with leftover because the places I get grains from are usually 1 pound minimum and increments of 1 pound.

Thanks for opportunity!

No, followed the instructions on the site and it worked just as it should. It did take a little longer than the 2 minutes they mention to get the emails but that is likely because it is way down in the basement about as far from our router as you can get.

I just got a Tilt and have it up and running via pi zero w. I do not know how I lived without this thing! Even if it's not dead accurate on SG having temp and seeing activity is priceless - especially being able to take a look pretty much anywhere or anytime. Need to get a couple more of them...

So, I am just getting back into brewing so forgive me for the noob questions. In regards to Wayne's recipe post #429: What volume of strike water should I use? Then I add 2 gals 200F water to raise mash to 168F, right? Sparge temp and final volume? I did read, search through the thread but no...

Bobby, will the solder on tri-clover flange only be available in 1.5"?

How did you attach the tri clover ferrule to the pot?

Curious about the same things myself.

How "quick" of a disconnect do you need? What about just a union or if you need flow control a true union ball valve? About the same amount of time to disconnect as a tri-clamp. I use them in my aquarium plumbing and they have been very reliable. They seal with an o-ring. Lowes has pretty...

The way I understand the OP will be running 240v, right? That we put it at only 18.75 amps for the 4500 watt element with the 30A setup being fine. Just want to help make it clear. Maybe I missed something?

It just seems like a clamp being too tight isn't the source of the issue. If you can swap the wiring out that easily I would. JMO.
