electric brewery build

After hours of searching for an article of someone making their own version of a robobrew or grainfather, I couldn’t find one that really came all that close to the real thing. I came up with a plan to make a hybrid of a “robofather” and an electric BIAB rims system. For anyone looking to make...

First off, i'll apologize for this question b/c i'm sure it's all been covered before. There's so information, and i'll be honest, i'm overwhelmed. I read up on electricbrewery.com, but it's way to big of a project (size and cost) than i can deal with right now. I've been on...

Hey guys, I am going to be powering a 5500W element from a dryer receptacle. There are 30A breakers in the main panel. I may not be in the same house much longer, so I need a portable solution. I am having a hard time finding the in-line 30A GFCI cords. Where is the best place to find them (at...

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...

Kettles are from Spike Brewing. Control panel is the 30 amp kit from Electric Brewing Supply and the hard was purchased from Brew Hardware. All three have great customer service.

I just switched my homebrew setup from propane to electric (5500 W element in BK and HLT). I previously used an Arduino to control the propane burners for my HLT and BK (combo of 5V relays, 120:24V furnace TX, and furnace gas valve) I am reusing the Arduino because it will keep most of my...

I just need to get a 12v DC jack and plug mounted in the 6"x6"x4" controller box to power the Raspberry Pi - but I'm doing a PID Tune right now. I went pretty simple. Using my phone or a PC to control via the http interface. I power the 240v and 12v separately. Have a 12v brown solar pump on...

I have a 40 amp SSR and heat sink on the way, but I'm hoping that I won't have to use the big one that comes with it. The SSR is a 40 amp one, but the 1500 Watt element it's controlling only draws between 11 and 12. Can I use a smaller heat sink from a PC or something, or should I stick with...

For those of you that remember me posting the **** disturbing GFCI post and the Farking Welder...here is the Kettle all set to go for my Brew day tomorrow. All previous problems I mentioned about the bottom not heating up because the elements were too high (Damn Welder!) are now debunked. It...
