Hi All,
I am trying to get back into homebrewing but things have changed within the past few years! I bought a RIMS tube from Brew Hardware a while back and started building my own controller...then life got in the way. Anyways, I am ready to get back into it and am looking to completing my RIMS build with a pre-built controller to only control the Mash. I will heat the strike & sparge water and boil with propane. In the end I am really just concerned with holding a steady mash temperature. With that said I am looking at the Brau EZ Boil and the Inkbird IPB-16 any thoughts? I am not too concerned about the price difference if in fact the Brau will perform better?
Also, what are the thoughts about an ETC controller en lieu of a PID? I have been doing more reading within the last week and some people seem to think PID's are difficult to use . Thanks for any comments, looking forward to getting back at it!
