Decided to go with an HF drill instead. I've seen both of these models pop up on HBT. Any real benefit over the more expensive one besides the lower RPM? http://www.harborfreight.com/1-2-half-inch-heavy-duty-spade-handle-drill-93632.html...

Enough with all these codes! Haha. Don't have a pic of the box and not at home. The neutral has a white stripe:

Hmm not sure. There is a box on the outside where the feed is coming in. Perhaps? I'll have to ask the electrician. Why do you ask? Quick shutoff in case of emergency? I know it runs from a 125 2-pole breaker inside my house that has been shut off since he installed it.

My garage is off the back of the house quite a way so I had an electrician run a big ass supply line to a 125 amp sub panel. I'm in the process of wiring up the panel now before I put in the insulation and sheet rock. So I'd only be replacing a 25 ft section of 6awg inside the garage with the...

Haha, I think my wife will kill me if I switch systems again. I've spent the last 5 months renovating/redesigning my garage around it. Even ripped up 85 feet of my back yard to run electric and water out to it. In my head, this is the final frontier of my brewing advancement. Never say never...

Thanks for this (again). It sounds like either way I need to pull the 6awg and go to 10, so I might as well go with 10-3.

I think you misread that. There is no way to hook up a NEUTRAL to the BB so that needs to be capped. The ground will obviously be hooked up to the green wire coming out of the BB.

Hmm, ok. I had some leftover 6-2 from wiring in my tankless electric hot water heater so I used that for the run to the controller. It fit in the breaker easily. Sounds like I should go with the 10-3 instead. Although, I still don't understand why it's necessary to run the neutral if I am just...

Great. Thanks!

I am in the process of wiring up my garage and I have a question for those of you that opted to install a dedicated 30amp GFCI breaker in your panel or subpanel... There are three wires (2 HOT, 1 GROUND) coming from the controller, so I'm using 6-2 wire to run from the controller to my subpanel...

Hey Marvin, I am in the exact same situation as you. Did you ever get it figured out? I already bought the BB controller. As you point out, it has 2 HOTS and 1 GROUND. I bought a 30 amp GFCI breaker bc it is cheaper than going with the in-line GFCI. I'm pretty new to wiring but hooking up...

I just went on to check Morebeer to make sure my 5L flask is borosilicate and i stumbled across this. Anyone use this method? ------------------ "Recommended Process for Use of Flask: Double Boiler Method It is important for your safety to heat water in the flask with a heat source that...

That's awesome, schumed. Can't wait to give it a go. Did you have to have the pump cycling the whole time?

I want to say the last one they did on the spring was 20%. I think it's on their FB page.

Thanks! it is 6". CL ad is asking for $140. Fingers crossed they respond.

I should also mention that I am doing single vessel electric BIAB with a 20 gallon kettle.

I know the ventilation issue has been discussed ad nauseam, but most threads I've found cover DIY options. I'm wondering if anyone out there can tell me if they think this will work...

That's good to hear! Thanks for the info, guys.

Has anyone had any issues with flour scorching on the element? It came up in another thread and was wondering if anyone runs into that problem with BB. I'd imagine we'd be hearing all about it if that were the case.

I ended up doing the standard rustoleum product they sell at HD and am very happy with it so far. I put it on extra thick since the smallest quantity I could buy was still way more than i needed. Used the whole bag of antislip so it's super grippy despite looking very glossy.
