Bought an STC1000 controller, wish I hadn't

[GenIke]

I hard wired mine right where the original temp controller was On my keezer. All I added was four 6 inch wires to pigtail into the stc 1000. Sat down with my tablet to follow the HBT build threads I needed and i was finished before my beer was 1\2 gone.

I'm sure it was under $25 total.

Geez i just built mine for the price of the controller. A plastic box and some wires are not things that are hard to come by. I happened to have an extra outlet though.

My stir plate though i totally should have bought. That was a pain and took several trips to the hardware store. I had a hard time getting the height/distance right and at the time didn't realize there were ones to be bought that are around $50

I just built a complete HERMS system including a STC-1000 for 52$

Everything I needed for the STC-1000 was found in drawers, closet ect.... the only thing I didn't have was edge sealer to put on the connections...

I really like the sct-1000 but I think I will end up gifting it to my bro in law once I get my raspberry Pi based RaspberryPints+BrewPi integrated system setup... Really a dedicated computer/webserver for both tap list and fermentation control with the ability to add-on doodads over time..
