Okay I think I've read enough of this forum to finally start my own build.
I've modified one of PJ's diagrams(hope that's okay PJ) to my likings. My goal is to fit everything into the Auber 1/16 Din Case. I'm going for compactness and ease of transport. This will be stored in a closet in my condo when not used. so space is at a premium.
Here is the diagram. Originally there were two switches and two contactors between the SSR and Elements. I simply removed one of each and used one contactor to switch both of the loads. I believe I've "wired" this correctly. Please chime in if I haven't
I wish I could go down to one SSR, but i don't believe that is possible with two separate 120v circuits I looked at SSRD's but couldn't find one with a reasonable price.
I'm planning on getting the 44qt Bayou Classic Stockpot with basket. I think this should be sufficient for 5 gallon and 2.5 gallon batches. I don't see my self making anything larger as I simply don't have the space to store it.
I'll continue to update this throughout the build but hopefully making the bulk of the purchase in the next week or so. I'm going to try and document the build as best as possible. Hopefully someone else can benefit from any mistake I'll probably end up making.
Thanks everyone!
