    Robobrew/Brewzilla Discussion

    I drilled a hole and added a 1500w element in the dead place between the malt pipe and faults bottom, I used my robobrew mostly for distilling now. I can now use my inkbird controller. Also will boil 10g plus no problem.

    Spike Solo Owner's Thread

    Would adding a bag to the basket help with the stuck sparge im getting. Most of my base malt on hand is all ready milled could I use a bag for now until what I have is gone and I mill my own.

    Single Vessel Brewing System Temperature Stability

    Bobby I took your advice and added a tee and line going to my whirlpool port should help with flow and better temp stability.

    Heating element tripping gfci

    I found a cheap $10 3000w 240v element at the hardware store to try and it fired up no problem. I’m thinking I may have damaged the elements when I bent them to make them fit. I’m not sure if it matters but on both the plastic where you screw the wires in is loose.

    Both gfci are 15amp 1800w plus the ink bird built in gfci. Both run fine with gfci until with ground part of the hot pod makes contact with the part against the kettle.

    How long does your brew day take with your electric systems?

    I brew after kids go to bed, usually takes about 4hours on my brewzilla. I clean everything as I go and whatever doesn’t get clean that night I’ll do it the next day.

    I bought the extension for the 35L, hoping to use the still attachment and do 10gal batches with it.

    Element question

    Should be good

    Element question

    I’ll give it a bit of a bend, thanks for the heads up. I have them running on their own circuit, one element will be hooked up to a ink bird pid. I will unplug the other once I get to mash temp.
