Great use of a sous vide, especially if you no longer use it. IIRC, the Anova has an 800 watt heating element. NutriChef makes one a little cheaper with a 1200 watt heating element, incase anyone else wants to try this method with a little more heating and temp holding power. Plus, it makes a...

An update for closure and posterity; the breaker and its subsequent replacement wete defective. The seller on ebay refunded my money and let me keep the panel and breaker. I contacted GE and they overnighted a brand new replacement breaker free of charge. All now works as it should. Thanks...

Ok, so I'm a little confused as to which way to go here. I opened my main panel and further visually confirmed the dryer outlet is on its own breaker and no continuity exist between any other circuit. A previous comment mentioned I should decouple the neutral and ground bars in the spa panel...

Point taken.  I have access to the main panel and my multimeter. I would imagine that killing main power and removing the main panel cover to check for continuity against all circuits would be easier and more thorough than finding and testing every single outlet in my house with...

Good news is, the dryer outlet is only 6ft from the main panel and I can see the entire run, so I have visual confirmation that there is nothing else on that circuit. Hope that helps.

I'm running a separate 120V circuit for my pump, though this is a good point should I decide to add that in the future (which has crossed my mind).

Here are the pics of my spa panel and control panel. I retained the 240V switch in the control panel, which is not reflected in my last wiring diagram. The spa panel is fed by an extension cord in my storage room that plugs into a dryer receptacle. From the receptacle, it is a straight run to...

New concern... I installed my new spa panel and wired it up, along with finishing up the wiring and build on my kettle. Tested it out and took some boil off measurements over the course of a few hours yesterday, and everything worked great! Now, onto my concern... I gave the "Test" button on...

Thanks, Doug!

I did some more reading in the spa panel thread and came up with this diagram: Any better?

My man Doug! Thanks, I'll check out that thread.

I'm upgrading from propane to electric and have become confused regarding using neutral as a ground. My outlet is 3-pronged with hot red, hot black, and neutral white. Reading in terms of grounding, I've read don't use neutral as ground because is dumps stray current to the body of the...

Uncoil it and build a counterflow chiller.

Got it. Will ship out today. Thanks!
