This may be a dumb question but I know nothing about a PWM. How difficult was it to keep a rolling boil? Do you reduce the power to the heating element or reduce the time the element is powered?
I am also interested in going electric but know nothing about electricity. I have been to Brewmation and like what they have, but it seems more expensive than what one can be put together for (I don't know, they may be quite reasonable).
I'm pretty sure I could assemble one, but making sure...
I am planning on a setup similar to this, and would like to add indicator lights on the kettle (junction box) to know when the element is on. Would it be best to wire these before or after the SSR?
