I ended up with the rapids wholesale 3 gallon 2300 btu chiller and wired a plug on the pump. I will run my 1st batch in the new set up this weekend and see how it goes. FYI it is much easier to put the sleeve on the conical before it's assembled and hooked up to glycol. That's a lesson for next...

Im assuming you wouldnt use the pump because of the tubing that comes with the ftss? If so, do you think if I replace that with reinforced hose lines it would handle that motor?

I'm considering purchasing a kalinka-ice 25ft. Glycol chiller to control temps in my SS Brewtech brewmaster series 1/2 barrel fermenter. My question is, would I be able to cold crash to 37 degrees with that chiller...

I finally got the wiring done for the controller and tried to do a hot water test last night. I ran into a couple problems, 1st is I set the temp on auto to 155 and the element never started heating up.I shut the controller down and I put a volt meter on the outlet I ran off of the 50 am spa box...

This is the email I recieved from him. Doesn't really explain what's new under the hood. Thanks for your order. The 3BC was recently replaced with the 5BC, it is 50A ready with 6awg power input. You will be getting the 5BC instead. You can run 2 elements at a time with it and your 60A breaker...

Just got my hosehead 5bc and all the new brew gear put together. Hoping test it out this weekend. Is it possible to run 2 brews in 1 day, I'll be doing 15-20 gallon batches. https://www.flickr.com/gp/137629642@N04/kc52b3
