    Induction cook top heat control?

    I use an Avantco 3500 for strike water heating, then pump it to a cooler mash tun. While mashing, I heat sparge water with a cheap 1800w induction burner..gets about 5 gallons to 180F well before mash hour is up.

    WD40 on ball valve ok?

    If it is a hex nipple the hex is for a wrench. If it's a smooth nipple use a pipe wrench.

    DIY Kegerator Step by Step??

    3.3 CF seems pretty small to be fitting a corny keg. Does the fridge have a freezer at the top that has the cooling lines running through it? If so, that might limit the height to less than what the specs say.

    Northern Brewer Support (or lack of)

    Just noticed 55 lb sack of grain was about $55 shipped with the free shipping and now is $39 plus about $60 shipping. Have shipping rates gone up that much?

    Split duplex receptacles

    If the duplex receptacles are truly split into separate 15 A circuits then you should be able to plug both elements into the same receptacle.

    How to tell when keg is getting empty?

    Yes, if you use the AC/USB adapter. On batteries they shut off after about a minute, then re-tare to zero if the weight is still on it. It's funny one scale says 90 lb and one says 60, but they are the same model number and identical. About $21 on Amazon

    Temperature probe wire reccomendations

    It depends on the type of probe. if it's an rtd, then the wire type isn't critical as long as all three conductors are same length/gauge. If it's a thermocouple it needs to be the appropriate wire material for the type of thermocouple.
