    Do you need a 1 off Stainless part built for your system? Let's discuss it.

    Let's see if this illustration helps. Still learning this version of TurboCad, so haven't yet drawn the recess for the o-ring. That should be on the outer surface of the hex nut, facing away from the disc. The gap between the nut and the disc is 1/4". I also need two 0-rings and and a...

    2x 120v 2000W elements on one controller?

    Since no one has commented on my similar statement/question in the induction burner on a generator thread, thought I'd repeat it here. Don't you still want to tie the grounds of each circuit together at the chassis? or is that not necessary/problematic when both circuits are on GFCIs?

    Do you need a 1 off Stainless part built for your system? Let's discuss it.

    Jay, How about something like what's shown in post #452, except use a thick lock nut in lieu of the TC cap - o-ring side up. Replace the tubing and bulkhead fittings with a removable Camlock F, 2 hi-temp o-rings and another lock nut The use will be as a recirculation flow diverter underneath a...

    Has anyone run a 240v induction cooktop on a generator?

    Thanks guys, I think you answered a question I have in finishing my control panel. I am running two independent circuits, each on it's own GFCI, into my panel. Tying the grounds together at the chassis ground shouldn't cause problems with proper GFCI operation. Is that correct? Remains to...

    Ss Brewtech 15 gallon Electric Kettle Conversion

    Good to know. I was looking at those as well for the short probe, but for some reason the images put me off - gray appearance of the SS. I did order for an Inkbird IPB-16 one of the $12 units with the metal cable sleeve you also recommend. Should be on my doorstep tonight and hope to solder...

    Inkbird IPB-16 PID Controller Inquiry

    Well, I couldn't resist myself. I removed the base from my IPB-16 and had a look inside. Fortunately Inkbird labeled the connection point on the controller board, as well as the daughter board with the solder points for the stereo connector. Using a multi-meter I mapped the pinout for the...

    Inkbird IPB-16 PID Controller Inquiry

    Not sure I understand this comment, as the IPB-16 already uses a Pt-100 sensor. I find the covering on the OEM sensor adversely affects its response time, so I understand the desire to use a different model/installation with a faster response time. You could solder on a stereo plug and use the...

    All stainless 3500W heating element ULWD

    Brewhardware lists on their website only 120v, 1650w and 240v, 5500w TC elements. Do they offer something they don't advertise?

    Kettle sour Q?

    My explanation was directed towards aeviaanah, in response to the HERMS comment. I don't see any issues with your intended process. After I finish converting my brewery to electric, I plan to run kettle sours using a Boilcoil as well. With the ULWD of the Boilcoil, I don't see an issue. I...

    Here's what I purchased for 12V power. Installed in cabinet, but haven't wired it up yet. http://www.newark.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&langId=-1&urlRequestType=Base&partNumber=04R9678&storeId=10194#

    Kettle sour Q?

    Kettle sour means the wort is soured in the boil kettle after pasteurization and chilling below 110F, hence the name and the use of a boil coil in this instance.

    So if I am following correctly, you set R_REF = 430 and left Res0 = 100 as is? Neither of these constants factors into the linear calculation, but they do factor into the quadratic one.

    What value did you set RES0 to for 430 Ohms?

    50% off for Inkbird Pre-wired PID Temperature Controller, Asking for Review

    I am willing to post a fair and honest review. I currently have one IPB-16 on order that will be tested not only in a brewing application, but also to control an electric smoker and possibly sous vide. I also own and use a ITC-308S and a C919. Additionally I've given away several IBT-2X as...
