Most around here are using March Pumps - there seems to be a following for the Little Giants coming on and a few are building their own positive displacement pumps (peristaltics) - each has pros and cons. There are a ton of industrial pumps if you are serious enough to make that investment...

Made mine about a month ago - followed directions here on HBT - was very fearful of the electric death - just move slow and ask questions if you need to: http://www.cedarcreeknetworks.com/heatstick.htm I had nothing to start with - single most expensive item was 12GA electric cord (highly...

Sure this is sold - but thought I would check - do you still have this kit? Would you ship to san Diego? Thank you.

Where did you get heatsink?

Thanks Pulse. Diesel & all for keeping me honest and alive :rockin: I used the solver solder method sticky'd to the DIY and connected a ring terminal to the pot, this is connected as suggested to the ground - pot is now physically and electrically grounded. It wasn't as easy as I hoped to...

This is the first version of the control box - I was only calculating physical space, not the reality of the components/wire. As it turns out-- it will actually fit, and work - but the amount of heat build up is not conducive to a system that lasts - which is a requirement :tank: I fixed...

GFCI - definitely. Understood - VERY thin line - thanks gentlemen - I will post some pictures tonight. I will also do some more searching on the board for ideas to ground a pot - I've seen the keggle ones that are drilled into the bottom rim - but this doesn't help me in this situation...

Originally I wanted to ground to wall of of the pot - I could not after four revisions (+trips to HD) get a water-tight seal - the way it is set up now has a brass 6-32 screw holding two washers and rubber washers. Like a small weldless fitting. Connected to the outside of this is the ground...

There are certainly cheaper ways to do all-grain - cheapest route was not requirement. My budget was mainly set to keep me from buying a Blingman and finding out later that my keggle system is all I really wanted anyway. Oh - and I got kicked out of the kitchen years ago... :D I'm in a...

I'm nearing the completion of the my small scale electric system - so thought I would share with those that have inspired this creation. I have to re-build the electric enclosure (SSR too hot for smallest version) this weekend, perhaps get to brew sunday??!! Pictures forthcoming....:mug...

Good morning- I'm working on partial automation of my brew rig (HLT and MLT) but am finding the wiring to be a unknown and therefore stumbling on it. I understand the basic concept and purchased all the parts, but think a wiring digram might be a great reference (troubleshooter?)...

Figured out how to post picture, join the group! :) I like the coil for HERMS in the HLT idea, but can't seem to grasp instituting it, anyone documented this here?

Cheers from the left coast! I am pretty new here - but have definitely appreciated all the inspiration and quality ideas/discussion - I found a sweet stand for $50 at a local industrial liquidator, found a craigslist ad for three 15 gal kegs, already modified, and put it all together...

bump - deleted repeated message

Thanks Kladue - I've read your write-ups before, and I think you deal with gas for a living if I remember? It will be painfully obvious I really have very little knowledge here in two seconds... :) I was thinking one of these: http://www.acfurnaceparts.com/flamesensors.aspx As some...

I have been lurking here for quite a while - collecting bits - my first Steam-infused mash was last weekend, it was surprising how smooth it went - I owe this to the whole board - thank you for putting your ideas out here. I have recently purchased a Brewtroller - but want to continue to use...
