And Wilser.... Your PM box is full!

cooldood, I'm not a mathematician, but I see 4 pictures in this thread.... (I'm an Engineer)

Paul, You should be able to find something like that locally. It's just a steaming rack for a kettle. Here, they sell in Sears (Department Store), or any kitchen goods store.

Yup... More than likely. However, I'm also toying with the idea of using grommets and a drawstring. I think if I put a grommet every few inches, I could make a drawstring that is heavy duty enough to support the bag!

I was also thinking of trying something like this: http://www.sears.com/winco-str-18-steamer-rack-17-3-4inch/p-SPM6034459705?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1 I have a 19" kettle, but this should allow for me to keep 3" of clearence from the bag to the bottom (and pump...

Had a beautiful Wilserbrewer made bag, but during a demo i accidentally dryfired the element for a second, and toasted it... I use the "holy" bag, AND a new sheet. You could call it electric brew in a bag in a bag (eBIABIAB). I like the darwstrings of Wilserbrewer's bag. Now I'm using a...

Oh yeah. Probably should have stated that... The zipties broke in succession (chain fail). I imagine one had a defect, and it was taking the most load. Once it failed, the bag slipped and had too much momentem for the others to hold. The bag fell about 1.5' down into the kettle.

Well, this is my 5th brew day on my new system... and it was about time something went wrong! Recipe was for an 10 gallon IPA as follows: 22lb US 2row 2lb Carapils 4lb Flaked Rice 2oz Warrior 60min 2oz Cascade 30min 2oz Citra 15min 2oz Citra 5min 1oz Citra 0min Mash: Water Start...

I bet Russki hit the nail on the head. I was experiencing cavitation (air bubbles) in my eBIAB brews. Thankfully, due to the ULWD element, I was able to kill the heat before I burned my bag. I could hear the air being sucked into the pump, and figured out that it was from the pump pulling too...

I much prefer Homebrew Emporium in East Greenbush. beerbrew.com I think the sales staff is more knowledgable, and I think they have higher quality (fresher) ingredients. Last I went to Hennessy, they were breaking down hops from lbs to oz and storing them in ziplock bags in the fridge. I'd...

Your system sounds a lot like mine. Here is my layout and eletrical diagram, as well as my parts list. You can fund my build thread here and a research thread here. If you want more details for the items list, I can send you ann excel file.

Currently not keeping the bag off the element. I've had no problems with melting the bag or any flavors while mashing... The pump out from kettle is on the bottom, and the two ports on the top are different returns. The QD is the Chiller Return, and the normal return is the Recirculation...

Gotcha. I need a plug to disconnect the control panel from the spa panel for it to be an "appliance". I thought that since I had a plug on the input side of the spa panel it would be the same. Either way, I think it will be of use to have that disconnect. I'll spec some things out and run them...

I really enjoy my aluminum pot... Just in case youre willing to go outside of SS. I think it was about 100$ with lid and shipped. http://www.instawares.com/precision-80qt-aluminum-stock-pot.wdi-alhp80.0.7.htm?s_cseid=AMZN The walls are 1/4" thick. It feels more solid then most SS pots I've...

It's a 20 gallon aluminum stock pot. Super thick walls. I can look up the mfg if you'd like, but I'm stuck at work now...

For all that were sub'd to this thread. Here is the final product build thread. Thanks for everyone's help!

Its a good call on the outlet/connector. I didn't think I would need it, but it would be very nice to move it out of the way. It's on my list of improvements. Why a 4 prong cord tho? It's a 3 prong cord with an extra 10gauge wire for ground. Besides asthetics, what's the benefit there?

And finally, completed system! I've also made some improvements to this... and I'll get some pictures of those later. Please fire away with comments, concerns, or questions!

Some electical done... Added the GFCI to the wall, and wired it to my 30amp drier cord. Wired my GFCI to my Control Panel. And a view of my Control Panel Wiring.
