    Basement E-Brewery

    Yup. I have an inline fan, like from a greenhouse. It's 6". I have PVC pipe and fittings for the duct. Just need to get it done!

    Basement E-Brewery

    Painted metal roofing over framing. I figured it was cheaper than that plastic kitchen wall paneling, and just as washable.

    Basement E-Brewery

    I brewed this past weekend in the kitchen. Big trouble! I usually time things so that SWMBO is out of the house during the mess. Well, I've been banished from the kitchen.:mad: The basement brewery is back on the front burner! This is my work area-to-be as of a week ago. As you can see...

    How far vertically will a 3-5 gallon per min transfer pump move beer?

    I'm thinking that you might have priming issues. (using a march or similar). If you locate the inlet of the pump below your kettle, the pump should pump 28" of head no prob.

    Love Temp Controller Series TS wiring diagram (2008+)

    In the parameter menu, choose parameter "d0". There you can choose Ht or Co. Setpoint you would just change form a cooling value to what you want for heat. I hope this helps.

    Love Temp Controller Series TS wiring diagram (2008+)

    You should be able to re-program the action of the controller for heat. That way, you can use the outlet for a heater. Just reverse the process for cooling.

    element only boiling on one side?

    That's exactly what's happening. Vessels will have a flow caused by the rising/falling of heating/cooling liquids. Hot and cool spots are typical, unless you re-circulate.

    Spa water heater elements - Who is using?

    It seems that this set up would be more cumbersome to install; two holes to seal, how to terminate the electrical connections? I have this in my whirlpool tub.. I wonder how this would work as a RIMS/Side stream?

    My Brewmation/Penrose electric brew setup running for the first time (video)

    Nice video! Your narrative was nice and calm..Great, considering all that you had going on there. That looks like a nice set up. A few brews and some good record keeping, and you should be able to produce great, repeatable beers. I also liked the beer reviews..:mug:

    Basement E-Brewery

    That's exactly the plan for heating the strike water. The second sensor scenario would be when using the HLT with a HX to heat the wort. I have two pumps, Wort and Water.

    Basement E-Brewery

    I've accumulated enough stuff to get started. My plan is to construct a two panel system. This is mainly because I have been able to salvage a NEMA-1 cabinet from work, and I bought a NEMA-4 Cabinet on E-bay. The NEMA-4 will be on the brewery shelf, serving as an operator station. The NEMA-1...

    Bottom Dump Valve

    I'm very comfortable with Silver soldering..As for the drain, it would be just for cleaning in place. I would use a dip tube and side valve for processes. Make any sense?

    Bottom Dump Valve

    How would the connection to the keg work?

    Bottom Dump Valve

    I am finally starting my E-brewery build: I'm making the boil keggle, and want to install a bottom dump valve. My question is; silver solder a threaded insert to the keg's top opening, flip over and remove the "bottom", or remove the top, as I did for my HLT, and silver solder to the bottom...

    How to clean this old Brewery bottle?

    When speaking of Oxyclean, what formula? I've seen liquid chlorine/fragrance free, and powder, chlorine free.
