When I started using mine, the catch bucket was still putting off a fair amount of steam from the hot water and the cream corn smell isn't great. My solution was to drill a hole in a bucket lid that my drain hose fit snugly in and set it on the bucket. I don't think you'd want to put it on...

Wow, that's pretty impressive! Thanks for posting the results.

It's a detached garage, no hot water heater. I just recently added the sink and a urinal.

Not really worried about getting hot water, it would just be nice to be able to wash my hands in water that's warmer than 50 degrees in the winter. I was thinking you could just control it with a flow switch, or maybe even redundant flow switches for safety sake. It would be on a GFI outlet.

Has anyone ever tried using a RIMS tube as a instant hot water heater for a sink? I've been wondering if it's a feasible idea controlling one with a flow switch. I only have a 20A circuit at the sink in my garage and most of the 110v tankless water heaters require 30A.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing, we've all had days like that I think.

I also have a HERMS that I need a larger volume of water than what ends up in the beer. My HLT is large enough to hold all the water I need, so for simplicity sake, I treat all of it the night before I brew. I use Bru'n Water (thanks Martin!) and just calculate the mineral additions (except for...

Please let us know the FG results. I was going to do the same thing, but 002 is only supposed to have an 8% alcohol tolerance. Cheers!

I'm in!

You can never have too much cool gear! I'm in

That would be perfect in my system!

If you plan a long hopstand, you can. You need to be circulating if you do or it might scorch the hops. Most of the time I just stop a little over my target temp and let the temp coast during a hopstand.

This is what I did in my HLT (havn't got around to doing my BK) and it works great. I used one like this through the side of the pot to interupt the control signal from the PID to the SSR.

This is the RTD with teflon cable that was mentioned earlier (they spell it telfon). I bought one and it works fine but the wire is thinner than what is pictured. Still a lot easier to work with than the steel braid. If you can solder, I purchased this wire to redo my steel braided cables and it...

I believe this is the type of connector you are talking about, and yes they need to be soldered on.

This wire works very well

I'm in! Thanks SS Brewtech

Here is the grant I built for my 3 vessel E-HERMS. I connect it between the MLT and my wort pump. When I fly sparge, I gravity feed into the grant and when it's full, it pumps at full speed to the BK. The grant uses 2 float switches like these. I used a DPDT switch like this to divert the power...

Could this be coming from Iron pipes upstream of the sprayer?

You guys did nice work. I love the live edge collar and custom tap handles!
