First I would like to say Hello everyone,
I am very new to all this, haven't even brewed one single beer yet. We did make some Graff though and the smell of that wort created a MONSTER!!!
I have almost all of my equipment for a recirculated BIAB gas system either here or on the way soon. I designed my system based off of extensive reading here at HBT and many other sources. I am very thankful for all the information and discussions. Hopefully the kit I have put together will get the job done as is because I need to brew some BEER!!!
I am going to try and regulate the temperature of my mash with the burner for now. I am not seeing this working too awfully well without a lot of trial and error and attention. Especially since I will have to brew outside in ever varying conditions. So I have been researching ways to automate the process.
Option 1
Blichmann's Tower of Power gas control module, or to build a similar set up.
Option 2
120v RIMS tube and electric controller. This is why I am posting here, I am leaning towards the RIMS type set up.
Either way is going to require power to my brew stand, as will my pump anyway.
Also it seems it will cost pretty close to the same either way. Unless I build my own controller.
I have looked at all the pre made and DIY controllers I could find. I have not been able to find a simple controller for what I want to do.
So I am here looking for suggestions or help designing a simple controller.
That was pretty long winded, so if you read it all, Thanks
