    My Heat Stick - Tri-clamp

    Hey guys, Just got all the parts for this build from StillDragon. About $120 invested with the heating element and all the fittings. Still need to do the electrical stuff. Will be soldering a ground lug in the 2"45° fitting. Fits my corny keg kettle perfect. I am using a 240v 2000w HWD element...

    Anyone know of a good source to but UL1007 or UL1015 hook up wire in reasonable quantities? I am thinking somewhere between 10 and 25ft minimum order per color. I am looking for some 16ga, 18ga, and 12ga. Smallest the is available through the well known channels is 100-250ft. There has to be...

    White Residue in Kettle

    Hey Guys, I fired up my new electric kettle last night and held a couple gallons of water at 152 for an hour or so to simulate a mash and see how the PID worked. It was awesome but when I went to drain the water, I noticed it was very cloudy and when I drained the kettle I was left with this...

    Kettle Drilling Problem

    Well Guys, I just ruined what I was going to use as a MLT in a Countertop Brutus 20 build this week. I read all the stainless soldering threads and being a car guy and an engineer, had little worries about this project. I've done soldering and welding before so I had a decent idea about what...
