It's dissappointing/unfortunate that they went with a 4 wire plug as opposed to the 3 wire 220v w/ a separate 120v circuit like the SSbrewtech controller. I thought the original controller was 3 wire. This definitely takes this system off my list. (Of course maybe the controller could just...

Marshall Schott is a psychologist at a prison. http://brulosophy.com/contributors/marshall-schott/ He's showing you people the ink blots... what do you see? He's explained his point of view many times: http://brulosophy.com/2015/09/17/exbeeriment-results-corrections/...

Correct, the unit reports those sugars as one if I'm interpreting it correctly. I'm looking for a method which measures individual sugar types but it is good to know that none exist or that it is too expensive.

Are there any methods for the homebrewer to measure percentages of wort sugar types, glucose, fructose, sucrose, maltose, etc...? As opposed to this commercial unit which measures fructose, glucose, sucrose and maltose: https://www.noackgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/CDR_BeerLab-overview.pdf

Thank you! I now have the information needed.

I'm referring more to the textbooks like kunze and de clerk. I don't have access to those materials.

Does the brewing literature state the differences between hot break and cold break? Does it classify one or both as beneficial or undesirable?

Do the brewing texts have any literature on dropping break material before a hop addition boil? Essentially boil, cool, drop break material, boil with hops (hop cooking)?

Now if only the documentation for power supplies included specific country and wiring compatibility tables like: US - 240V - L1, L2, G US - 240V - L1, L2, N, G US - 120V - L, N, G EUR - 230V - L, N, G AUS - 230V - L, N, G AUS - 240V - L, N, G etc... or perhaps that would be too big of a...

There are several methods of handling unhandled exceptions in WPF. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1472498/wpf-global-exception-handler You could easily then post the exception text to a url on your website to automatically collect them or just write them locally to a text file or the...

Agreed but take a European 220v hot and connect it to the neutral on the power supply and take the European neutral and connect it to the hot on the power supply. Should still work right? Same with the US 240v hot 1 to PS hot and US 240v hot 2 to PS neutral. Should still work right? Same...

There is a switch inside the unit. But can it handle 240v and is the 220v it claims to handle the same as the 240v I want it to handle? No documentation on the 240v because, from my understanding, European 220v has one line and one neutral though which is which is not known at any given time...

Agreed but documentation is sparse with a lot of power supplies. Often times, in the US at least, the terms 220v and 240v are used interchangeably (especially with items coming from China) So my question was leaning more theoretical with a practical bent... if that's of any consolation. Guess...

Can a 220v AC -> ?v DC power supply be wired with L1, L2, G as opposed to L, N, G? Most if not all have connections labeled L, N, G. I believe in the 240v system the two 120v hot lines swap as being the hot or neutral 60 times a second? As long as the power supply can take as input 220v, I...

What about the no chill method? The wort drops clear over time... Also wondering what the effect is on pH, if any. Probably just a slower rise/fall but maybe little change to pre and post boil values?

What benefits are there to the wort if one could instantaneously boil and cool? Are there any benefits to the wort of coming to a boil really fast? Suppose it could be done instantly? Better hot break (as opposed to poorly formed or less of a hot break)? What defines a good hot break vs. a...

Don't currently own a brewing system, so no mash cap but was just curious if there was any adverse effects.

Are mash rakes compatible with low oxygen brewing? I can't imagine a mash rake in an enclosed environment causing wort "shear stress" like a pump...? https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/forum/index.php?topic=28739.0

Basically I have 2 - 40A circuits to pull from, but you make good points, maybe switch to a no sparge RIMS or HERMS, could probably do either in 2 vessels.

Afraid so, but thought there might be a compromise w/ one element, , just trying to do the LODO thing...
