I like conicals.

Hmm Google changed some things on me. I edited the post, they should display now.

For the record here is the recirculation arm.

I'm sure you have already figured it out, but I mounting the heating element just as Kal did (see: http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/heating-elements) I made sure to position it low enough so it doesn't interfer with the basket. Basically the bottom of the electrical box is just above the bottom...

Ok I just looked over all the pictures, my wiring diagram and previous comments and it looks like my wiring diagram and the first wiring job I did differ. The first wiring job had the black leg from the output of the main contactor go to the element contactor first and then the output of element...

Looking good! Glad I could be of some help and inspiration.

Just saw this as well. Yes that will work as long as you get a contactor with 120VAC contacts (which the contactor you linked has.)

In!

I had been having problems with my RTD and with some wires coming loose, not to mention what looked like bad connections on the Hot lines which caused some melting of a plug. I decided the best course...

I can't speak to code but I can't think of any other safety concerns of using a non-locking connector. The system is working well, but I am probably going to rewire it in the coming future. Some of my terminals were not crimped very well and some wires have come loose when I have transported...

hio3791 is correct with one modification. Since you have a 240VAC Coil you will instead of F being neutral it needs to be the other hot leg.
