I have zero electrical skills so DIY is out of the questions. I am shopping for a 240v off the shelf plug-n-play controller for my single element with 120v pump control. I do have a 30A 240v GFCI breaker with 14-30R plug already installed in my brew area.
In searching for options I started with Brew Boss v2 but realized that I would need a 240v converter for the pump, which is not out of the question but does make it more clunky. Additionally I don't see the benefits of the "automation" aspect with the tablet / app for a recirculating full volume BIAB mash with hoses, but for 3 vessel with hard plumbing & actuators - absolutely. Nevertheless, Brew Boss v2 is still on the list.
Budget is ~$500
