    Electric Controller

    I think he meant that the pid was controlling the relay that was switching neutral. Does this work?

    Electric Controller

    Thanks for the advice, and looking it over. Just some further questions on your suggestions 1. PID is switching the neutral, and contactor relay is controlling the hot wire. Should it not be done this way? My thinking was that this would accomplish the element being disabled unless both...

    How to make the cheapest case of beer

    Cost reduction... well, buy grain and hops in bulk. I pay $25 for a 25kilo sack of pale, 10 bucks a pound for hops is common. I brew all grain, so dont use LME/DME for much other than starters. Wash your yeast to reduce the amount of times you purchase it. Cheapest case? it all comes down to...
