Dudadiesel has an applications requirement form that he will use to tell you which exchanger to buy: http://www.dudadiesel.com/heat_exchangers.php It is about half way down the page. I have a therminator and I could chill 35 gallons of wort in about 30 min (my water temp is 55F).

Yes, my regulator has a flow rate. I run between 1 and 1.5 liters per minute.

I like 1968. I ferment at 62-64F for first 72-96 hours and then let the temp rise to 68F to finish.

My HLT temp probe is in a tee on the top of my mash tun so stratification in the HLT is irrelevant.

Good question. I do care about the accuracy of my strike water. I fill my mash tun with strike water and then pump it thru the herms coil until I achieve the proper mash in temp. I control the temp of the strike water as it returns to the top of the mash tun and monitor the temp as it leaves...

I do not recirculate the water in my HLT. I don't care if there is temp stratification in my HLT as I am controlling the temp of the wort as it returns to the top of the mash.

I think it will be fine, especially if you recirculate the water in your HLT. Personally, I put the temp probe for my HLT in a tee at the top of my mash tun. I control the temp of the wort as it returns to the top of the mash.

Fast fermentations and many are strong flocculators. Quick turn over and clear beer. That said, even when fermenting colder, they leave a more complex flavor profile than the chico yeast.

You are overthinking it. Pappers has your answer!

Yes, I would use a blow-off tube for the majority of the fermentation.

Have you tried 1968 at 64F for the first 96 hours? 1028 would be another option.

For one more data point, I have built and used two different control panels. One was 50 amp for a 30 gallon system (see pic) and the second one was 30 amp for a 10 gallon system. I put my heatsinks inside the control panel and did not install a fan. I use crydom SSRs and the appropriate...

It does not take long to ruin an element by dry firing it. Is your system properly grounded - kettles, control panel, stand, etc?

Other high quality brands include teledyne, optos, gordos, crouzet

http://www.crydom.com/en/products/catalog/series-1-240-ac-panel-mount.pdf I am not familiar with d2450-10 but the catalog recommends against using it with capacitive loads as pointed out by Andrew.

Crydom D2440 or D2450

I had this happen on the outlet for one of my elements. The panel was 7 or 8 years old when it happened.

Here's another good brand at a reasonable price: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Teledyne-40-amp-250-VAC-solid-state-relay-p-n-615-8525/182870466102?epid=2096169785&hash=item2a93edde36:g:F38AAOSwJcZWgaE2
