:rolleyes: Seriously? Get over it, dude. Somebody on the internet has an opinion that isn't shared by you. OH NOES! ITS THE END OF THE WOOORLD! Seriously, move on. Besides, it's quite obvious that weizen tastes better while it's still fermenting. Anybody know that! :p (Small Joke!)

I recently brewed a Hefe with a 2 liter starter of SN Kellerweis yeast. I fermented around 70 degrees in an open bucket, and the beer went from 1.048 to 1.010 in 2 days. I kegged on day 4, and started drinking on day 7. It made for a pretty nice Hefe! The only gripes I had with it were...

You need a DPST switch to do what you want. The Pump Switch on my diagram below is wired so that the element can't come on as long as the pump is not engaged. One pole of the DPST will switch power to the pump, the other pole will be used to switch power from the SSR to the heating element...

Cool! So you used the low alarm as an element shutdown? It was wired like in the attachment? Here's the entire layout I intend to use. It allows me to use the march pump without having to energize the entire panel. It's wired so that the element can't come on unless the march pump is...

Thanks for the advice, but since I already have the PIDs in question, I'd rather use them if at all possible. Looking at the instruction manual here: http://auberins.com/images/Manual/SYL-1512A2instruction%201.0.pdf I see that terminals 9 and 10 can be used for SSR control. The J1 relay on...

I'm planning on building one of these soon. I'll be getting the tri clover tube from Brewers Handware and using a 1500 watt 120v element. I already have two of these auber PIDs that I was planning on using in a direct fire RIMS...

I was considering using a LWD 1500w 120v element like the one from plumbers supply, with an auber PID and an RTD temperature probe. My typical batch size is 5 gallons. What sort of step times do you think I could achieve with that setup? I'm really hoping that for a 5 gallon batch, the 1500w...

So, trigger, how's the heating element treating you after 7+ months of use? Is this the element you're using? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RD7MK0/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 I'm looking into making a RIMS tube, and I like the idea of having the capability of having on demand sparge water...

http://www.maltosefalcons.com/tech/tip-help-prevent-boilovers Here is the article that cottoned me on to using marbles in the boil kettle. The particularly relevant portion is here: "That's right, glass marbles, the kind kids play with. Just put about 20 of them in the brew pot. Don't worry...

If this is indeed the case, I would certainly feel comfortable using it for hot wort transfer. I've used marbles at the bottom of my boil kettle when using my propane burner. It helps prevent boil overs. They are certainly heat resistant and difficult to break. I can't imagine anyone ever...
