You might look at SSbrewtech they make some cool, kettle sized silicone trivets to place your electric kettles on.

I cheat and use an addition of Malibu Rum directly to the keg, easy and no messy bits of coconut to clog anything up?

I’d go with the larger pot, the more liquid = larger thermal mass. The more liquid you have, will tend to help keep a more constant temperature.

Just took delivery of my dream counterflow chiller, all stainless and about 30 feet long, can’t wait to put this bad boy from Stout Tanks to work.

Easily, I heat my strike water in my BK as my HLT is heating up. Heating strike water for the MT with a Herms coil can take a while, so heating my strike water with my BK is way faster and more efficient. With having my system capable of running all three elements at once, I can start heating...

Why not have 10,000 watts of power in a 30 gallon BK, and a separate 5,500 watt HTL. I'm a licensed electrician and prefer overkill, too nuisance tripping. This also allows for offsite brewing with a smaller 7,500 watt generator and a propane tank hooked to my BK. Having (2) separate panels...

With my HLT panel, the 30 amp power feed connects on the bottom with a twist lock connection, but on my 50 amp BK panel I connected it with a 4 wire, 50 amp appliance pigtail, and used a 50 amp RV extension cord to connect to the 50 amp range outlet mounted underneath my electrical panel. In...

This is a picture of my HTL control panel with the switching for the pumps, the panel for my BK looks almost identical except the switches in the front are disconects for the two heating elements. The switch on the right hand side of this panel is the disconnect for the HLT elements.

Another thought could be dual 30 amp circuits, one for the HTL and one for BK. This is kinda how my system works I have a 30 amp 240v circuit that feeds the 5500 ULWD element in my HLT along with 120v feeds for my pumps, and I have a 50 amp circuit that feeds the 5500w and a 4500w ULWD elements...

The one option you might consider is reducing the wattage on one of your elements, there's one Online HB vender that sells a 4500W ULWD ripple element. By reducing one element by 1000w you could save 4 amps @ 240v, this is what I did on my BK, I installed one 5500w element and one 4500w...

Yep Augiedoggy, you got me I'm a SUPER SECRET UNDERCOVER SS BREWTECH SPECIAL AGENT in charge of misleading brewers into buying well equipped, over priced Mashtuns, and you caught me like a toenail stuck in shag carpeting. Okay, not really but where do you get off, on telling people what they...

Wasn't this thread about the SS Brewtech recirculation manifold, when did it turn into a discussion about whether or not the Infusion MT is worth buying? I wish you "Know it all" brewers who pass judgment on a piece of equipment without even putting hands on it, would back off! SS Brewtech...

On my EHERMS system I adjust the temperature of the HLT to control the temperature of the MT, my temperature probe for my PID is in my HLT and I have an analog dial thermometer on my MT. I've got about a three degree differential between my HTL and my MT, if I want to mash at 150* I need to...

I'd agree with Biggrizzly, I have the same 20 gal. Infusion MT and use it with my EHERMS system. Generally when I'm recirculating from mash in, thought ramping up temperatures to mash out, I use the Vorlauf attachment that attaches to the same bulkhead that the recirculating manifold uses. I...

+ 22 Gallons of Peppercorn Pilsner 22+2951= 2973 http://www.brewstat.us/share/433/peppercorn-pilsner-20-gal-1

Just two little early birthday presents, in the mail today.

I run (2) 15w heater belts on two 60L Speidel fermenters inside of my chest freezer/ fermentation chamber they don't seem to have any problems keeping beer at temperature in a 40 degree garage, If your fermenting in a insulated chamber remember it doesn't take many watts to maintain temperature.
