Hello All, First I wanted to say thank you to everyone who responded to my earlier posts with wiring diagrams for my rims in a box build. Now I have an interesting problem that I can't seem to figure out. I've wired everything following the attached diagram. The area in red is my...

I live in the concord area. If you haven't already, check out White Birch in hooksett and Nepenthe in Manchester. Both great breweries.

I am a novice when it comes to proper notation for sure. I kinda went with what I could find instead of hand writing everything. I will take note of that fir future diagrams though. What program do you use for diagrams?

I can see the confusion from my diagram, no colors makes it all screwy. I understand what you're saying about the ssr. Hot in, hot out on the switching side. What program do you use for wiring diagrams? What's the benefit of the dpst over the spst inline? I just figured it gave me a distinct...

Yeah, I'm planning to use it for a plate chiller as well. Eventually may even be incorporated into a two tier build, but we'll see how this build goes first. Thanks for the gfci advice!

Hello Again, I'm finally at the point of wiring together my RIMS + Pump in a box. I wanted to get one last opinion on this wiring diagram before I put it into action. Things to note: - All switches are rated to 20 amp - Element is a 6000W 240v running on 120v - SSR is 20 amp - Pump...

An easy control box would just be an in plug (I like these from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00074USHY/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20) with two switches and two outlets. Quick wiring diagram:

Sweet! That is a perfect answer to my question! Here's the link to the LED push button lighted switches from Automation Direct: http://www.automationdirect.com/adc/Shopping/Catalog/Pushbuttons_-z-_Switches_-z-_Indicators/22mm_Plastic/Illuminated_Pushbuttons_Flush_-a-_Extended/LED

I'm still refining my setup. I am planning to add fuses in the final setup.

Sorry replying from my phone using the app.

Good catch! Updated it. Any answer for my light question?

Build a Rims Tube. Nice maintained temps!

Another trick to help dry out a beer is to add sugar during high krausen. It helps push the yeast along to ferment more thoroughly.

I posted one earlier today. Rims in a box wiring diagram.

This is my proposed wiring diagram for a rims in a box. My biggest question is what do I need to worry about four lights? Are they affected by the draw from the other thing in the circuit? My gut says no, but I want to be sure. Link to diagram...

Excellent! Great information. I appreciate all the feedback. Parts are now ordered and the build will begin soon! Thanks for all the quick feedback!

Hey Guys, Thanks for the feedback. The switch directly above the wall plug was intended to be my overall system switch. Is that in the wrong place? I do intend to keep the overall draw from this system under 15 amps. If my math is correct then I should be all set with a 1500w element...

Hello! I'm a total novice when it comes to home electrical work, but I felt like starting to tackle a RIMS in a box. I put together a basic wiring diagram of what I'm thinking for the project. I wanted to get feedback on it to make sure my head is on right. I didn't fill in the thermocouple...

How big is the fan on your range good? Hour many cfms?
