cip doesn really clean the ports especially if fluid isnt being pumped through those particular ports during the cip process.. you still need to wipe things down, especially when using such a weak pump with a sprayball. I have a riptide and its not even powerful enough to make any of my...

True but if your limited with a herms the advantage to a pid in the BK is you can heat your strike water to a certain temp as Bobby mentioned to save a lot of time..

yes you want either mypin TD4-snr or td4-srr model pids... they have the manual pwm mode. I used many myself. the ta4 model is the same in every other respect and fine for HLT and rims control. I also vote for contactor AND SSRs for controling the power to the elements.... the contactors will...

is the new pump a 120v pump and not 220v? I see mention of 500v ac on the chinese labeled one? does china even have 110v anywhere? most countries run on 220v 50hz so many pumps are designed for this outside of whats made specifically for NA. I see what looks like a starting capacitor on the...

if its setup right you can leave it unattended without worry though... just like an electric hot water tank... It just needs to be wired right with the right element density and control.

most jacketed conicals are insulated over the jacket to help with sweating. the 3.5bbl dual jacket conicals I just bought for 2,850 each (for brewpub) are fully insulated to help prevent the seating and energy waste.... When you insulate the speidel to improve functionality dramatically your not...

heres proof... they just change the advertised specs to mislead folks into believing they are different. Some sites are using the base length and some the actual roller length. https://www.ontariobeerkegs.com/Malt_Muncher_Three_Roller_Malt_Mill_p/maltmunch-3-roller-mill.htm and here the malt...

Nice comparison site! the maltmuncher 3 and kegco 3 are the same mill. even the maltmuncher 2 vs the cereal killer... some people have reported thier malt muncher 2 as having the ball bearings and some stated bushings... My guess is they changed over at some point and the maltmuncher 2 now are...

I brewed in socks when I brewed indoors in a spare bedroom.... But I kept the liquid in the kettles for multiple reasons... to me it was no different than cooking in a kitchen.. if one can be careful and adjust thier process to do that without large spills and mess than why not brewing...

My kegco 3 roller is still going strong at the brewpub. its only getting used 2-3 times a month to brew 3bbls of beer each time right now due to covid but its literally milled thousands of lbs of grain now and still looks visibly and functionally unaffected so... my CK hasnt been used in over a...

I do have 2 60 amp square D gfci breakers im willing to sell if your interested. I accidentally purchased them for my brewpub I I should say my electrician accidentally told be to get the wrong type. One is new in the box and the other was purchased as new without packaging from ebay.

If you get a plugged pump or a malfunction those valves might come in handy though...

I would replace the outlet and effected wire as well as the ssr or whatever that white din relay is that the last pic showed with melted connection. I agree soething came loose. believe it or not these panels are supposed to be checked periodically for loosened connections as its common for them...

you'll want to search for a the wiring photos or use the schematics in the directions but its pretty straight forward... you will need a 3 pin connector

maybe someone else with more knowledge on the k type probes can chime in here, sorry.

You would save yourself a lot of grief by switching to an RTD like a pt100. like this...

ugh... yeah ok so wire connections all have to be the correct type, length and soldered all the way I believe. I never had luck with those.

if your temp readout rises above 212 theres something wrong with the temp probe or setup. 212 should be like a hard wall and it should never go above that. in fact usually its boiling a couple degrees berore the readout reaches that point depending on your elevation.

sorry the TA4 does NOT have manual boil mode. disregard my post about using it. The TD4 does have manual boil intensity control. your either going to be full on at 100% power or off... meaning you will need to boil at 100% power constant or have the boil constantly starting and stopping every...

I did , did you set the probe type to the pt100 and is that what you are using?
