    Starting my 120V Rims Tube Build - Oh Baby

    I mean, cost is always a factor, right? Haha, lets be honest with ourselves, this isn't exactly a cheap hobby... Most of my build's cost is in the rims tube alone, but I really like the BrewHardware tube. It costs about as much as everything in the control panel, but it's worth it IMO. Maybe...

    Starting my 120V Rims Tube Build - Oh Baby

    I have had my StillDragon controlled 240v BK running BIAB for a while now, and boy is it an improvement over hauling all my **** out onto the front porch, running out of propane, long heating times, etc. But low efficiency and a chronic need to project have got me ready to make the jump to a...

    250v vs 125/250v plugs

    I am not an expert, but here is what I think. That receptor is four wire, so it has two 120v "hots" a neutral and a ground (H-H-N-G). If your system is running on 240 but you are going to need to pull 120v somewhere down the line you are good.

    Double Check my StillDragon DIY Controller

    Just finished wiring up my StillDragon controller. I think I've done everything properly, but I would love another set of eyes to verify. I also have a multimeter, but not the first clue on how to use it. Could someone direct me on testing this set up with said multimeter? Please ignore my...

    Hot Hot Ground?

    I am in Salt Lake City, UT. But I would be very interested if the price was right! I would pay shipping too :)

    Hot Hot Ground?

    I definitely want to do this set up as safe as possible, but this is also a rental house with four months left on the lease. I'm not looking to upgrade their janky wiring. But, the breaker is definitely 20a, that's 12 gauge wire, and people are saying I should be fine with a 4500w element. I may...

    Hot Hot Ground?

    Here is the pug and outlet cover. Noted, I will go with a 4500w element instead. I will check the breaker also, I think it is a 20amp.

    Hot Hot Ground?

    I have always been a bit unclear on this. Is the spa panel in your set up literally plugged into the dryer outlet?

    Hot Hot Ground?

    It is a plug for a dryer, yeah. I guess where I'm getting tripped up is it looks like the wire in the middle is just bare copper. I was under the impression that neutral would have its own sheathing. Maybe I'll have another look.

    Hot Hot Ground?

    I want to convert to a single element, single vessel system but I think I may be limited right off the bat by what I have coming out of the wall. My house is old, and has a 240 outlet with only three wires, H-H-G (pictured below) The solutions I have seen on here involving a spa panel...
