    propane jet burner advice

    I just bought these burners and hooked them up to my system. I used 1/2" pipe with a 2-stage regulator running 10wc (1/2 psi). The burners have a 3/8" FPT; so you will have to reduce the 1/2" pipe at the burner. I have these set up on my HLT and boil kettle. I can run both at same time and I...

    New Brew Stand Complete

    I used the vr8200 with transformers from HD. I did not pay much attention to the hook up from the transfer as I could not tell which side was hot. I had the same concern initially but it was not much to be concerned after the fact.

    New Brew Stand Complete

    On my build, I incorporated a hex using a 2gal pot running off of a Auber PID and 1400 watt heating element. I have one burner (HLT) running off of a PID with a standing pilot light. The boil kettle burner is running off a similar standing pilot light with an on/off switch to the flame.

    I have decided on the HW valve. Here is the question, to run this with an Auber PID, what PID do I need? The valve is 24v?? Does the PID need to be the same power? Can I run one these valves with a on/off switch?

    If I understand correctly, I will should run a dual stage low pressure regulator to get the psi to 0.5 to supply the gas manifold line, which will be 1/2" black iron. From the gas manifold line, I will need to run some type of honeywell gas valve with standing pilot. I have read on some...

    Ok...here is what I am thinking. I will use a high pressure regulator from the bottle to a black pipe manifold. From the manifold, it will split to the HLT and the boil kettle. Then a valve attached to each end which will reduce the propane to low pressure. Then, finish the line off with the...
