Ebiab system - where to put RTD pt100 probe

[nick sekerak]

I just upgraded to a new controller and it has a RTD Pt100 probe. I use a brewhardware false bottom and have a 5500w element. Where should I mount the probe? I was thinking at close to the element as possible. I have to drill a new hole in my kettle so I have only one chance to get the position of the probe right.

Any advice on what you guys have done that works good ??

Correct, mount the probe immediately downstream of the heat source. The overall mash will reach the targeted temp...eventually.

Ok thanks for confirming
