ebiab

Hey Guys, I am making the jump from a 10g propane burner and gatorade mash tun to a 20g electric biab. I've been trying to understand how the mash works in a single vessel, would I be running the pump and element at the same time constantly during the mash and have the probe on a "T" output of...

Hey Folks, I thought I'd share this with everyone as I think it would be useful to others out there that like to tinker. I had posted a long time ago about my eBIAB setup here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/windows-wpf-and-arduino-20-gallon-ebiab-build.644565/ I have gone a few...

Hey everyone, Looking to turn my setup into an ebiab set up and have a ten gallon SS Brewtech Kettle. I was looking to go the 240v 30a route and use a 5500 watt element but every element I can find is too long for the kettle diameter. The diameter of the kettle is 13.8 inches and I was looking...

Been agonizing and analyzing for nearly a year now about my electric brewery build. I finally made the determination that a three vessel system is out of my price range, at least for the moment. So I landed on a single vessel electric biab. Got the 5500W TC element from Bobby at brewhardware...

Just did my first BIAB batch on Monday. It was my first full volume boil and I attempted it on my kitchen stove. It quickly became apparent that the stove was not up to the task as it took over an hour to reach my mash temp and then again nearly an hour to reach boiling once the mash was...

I just wanted to give some ideas to anyone looking to do an eBIAB setup. I just need a hose for water supply and a hose for a drain from my CFC, and I am ready to brew. I proofed the electronics tonight - everything is working. Is there a better way to waterproof the locking L6-30R connectors...

I am almost done with a 10 gallon eBIAB build, and I am wondering if I need to use a hop spider or not. I own one of the stainless mesh baskets that hang from the side of the kettle, but I would have to modify it to be able to keep my lid on for my steam condenser. I have only once had issues...

The more I read, the more attracted I am to simplify and go with a single pot, eBIAB system (I was thinking RIMS before). Now that I'm looking at options I see that a 3500W 240V induction plate (something like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016XY88AA/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20)...

I am getting close to finishing my single vessel BIAB. I bought some nice plywood for my stand top, but I want to be able to seal it to prevent any spills or liquid from damaging it. Is there any sort of heat resistant clear coat I could spray over it? Thanks

Trying to figure out what to do with my stainless mesh hop basket when I complete my eBIAB build. I need it, as my CFC is only 1/4" ID. I will be utilizing a steam condenser during the boil, so I cannot hang it from the side of the kettle, as the lid needs to seal tightly. I know people use JB...

I am working on a wiring schematic for a two-element system that utilizes two separate 120V power supplies. Each will come from a GFCI wall receptacle. The EZBoil I am using will control the second element with the built-in relay, per Auber's instructions. One question I am running into is this...

I just evaluated a Wort Hog eBIAB system that used the Blichmann 120V 2250W boil coil. I've done reviews of a few different systems with the 1500 - 1600W heating elements on 120V. Overall, these got the job done, but left me impatient after experiencing the speed of brewing on a 5500W 240V...

I am inheriting some 80/20 from work and am planning a small stand for a one-vessel eBIAB system. What are some good, cheap, heat-resistant materials for the 'counter-top'? Thanks

I'm in the process of building my kettle for a small indoor electric BIAB setup - I wanted some input on the best kettle configuration before I buy parts. I have a 10gal kettle - I know that is way too small for some people, but I have actually been trying to go smaller and brew 3 gallon batches...

I have a custom built eBIAB pot for sale that can be used for eBIAB or as part of a larger system. I paid about $450 for all the parts to build this pot; I'm selling for $200. For now, local pickup in the SE Wisconsin area. If I can't find anyone local, I will update the post with a shipping...

Doing a little clean-out and upgrading so I am getting rid of a few things. I am willing to ship everything below, but local pick-up and a drive within 90 miles or a good brewery ;) of 44004 is preferred. I was using the 5500 watt element on 120v (1375 watt draw). Also willing to trade for...

Hey guys, I am working on a budget eBIAB build, and am looking for some input from people who have brewed a lot with a similar system. Which interface components on the control panel are truly necessary? Do I need a buzzer? Do I need an element indicator light in addition to the light that is...

I need some non-electrical help: I am looking for some help on putting together a kettle for my eBIAB build. I had initially planned on using my thin-walled aluminum kettle which already has a ball valve in it, but I have read that aluminum and stainless have some unwanted interactions when...

I found posts like these super helpful when i was planning this thing, so thought I'd share. Was doing a sloppy kettle/cooler mash tun/immersion chiller setup for the past several years and wanted to upgrade to something leaner, faster, easier to wash and store, and more reproducible without...
