    Brew rig connectors?

    Ok bad wording, was just looking for good connectors that will hold up, not leak, easy to use, stuff like that. Don't mind spending money on good stuff and was wondering what people recommend and perhaps a good place to buy.

    Herms coil to cool wort after boil?

    Should work providing the outlet is bigger but would certainly be better to have inlet at the top then just open the valve at the bottom and let it flow out to drain or where ever.

    Herms coil to cool wort after boil?

    Actually as another bonus, when the wort returns to the boil pot from the coil you can get a nice whirl pool going during the whole cooling process. Hmm.

    Herms coil to cool wort after boil?

    Agree, my idea was to add a fresh water inlet at the bottom of the HLT and outlet at the top which goes to the drain or collected for cleanup, basically the same idea as a plate chiller. Fresh cold water will always be flowing.

    Herms coil to cool wort after boil?

    True but there is wort going through the coil anyway during the conversion process before it goes to the boil kettle so would have to be cleaned regardless I would imagine. Just figured it would be one less piece to build/buy, no other chiller needed. Plus I could also use the herms coil for a...

    Herms coil to cool wort after boil?

    I was building a single tier brew rig and will have a large herms coil in my HLT and was just wondering if it would work to run the wort through the coil after the boil to cool it down? HLT would be filled with cold water so the wort would go from the boil pot into the coil in the HLT then back...

    Control box options?

    $1420 for that kit but you need to assemble it and also does not come with temp probes, power cord, heating elements, or GFIC. Is a nice kit though no question.

    PWM..Show us How

    These guys over here are building basically the same thing i think with just a pot and ssr , doesnt seem to be much more then that or am i missing something? i need a simple knob control for my BK and this looks cheap and easy. http://homedistiller.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=28364

    OK I think I will go two kegs for BK and MT with a 15" Jaybird FB. I like when a plan comes together :ban:

    Hmm what to build!?

    Ok here is another option.... I do have a keg I can cut and make into a MT, I was going to avoid this because I didnt want to go through the trouble but I think I might. I think I may be able to source one more but the gut wants $75 for it.... still cheaper then the Bayou I guess though, then I...
