Hi guys, I need some help here. I have been thinking to go electric for a while, so I dont have to freeze outside during the winter. I want to transform a 50L sanky in one brew kettle and liquor tank. Im using a Rubbermaid cooler to keep my water hot for sparging. I inspired myself from these guys and the electric brewery forum on home brew talk.
Electric beer brewing system
The electric brewery
My plan is in pdf attachement
1. PID/SSR w heat sink/Temperature probe
2. SW1/SW3
3. SW2
4. F1/F3 slow blow 30A fuse
5. F2/F4 I dont know yet
6. 30A GFCI Breaker
Questions:
1. In F1 and F3 do I need a 30A fuse for each or is it 2 x 15A each that make a 30A total?
2. Do I need a 15A switch or a 30A switch for SW2?
3. What is a K type probe
4. Do you think the PID/SSR/Temp probe is a good deal on ebay?
Thank you so much for your help.
