So I am building a very very simple HERMS system with a 10 gallon cooler with a 1500W electric element as my HLT and a 5 gallon cooler as my MLT.
I potted my element to help seal it all up and it should be cured this evening. I should have the rest of assembly complete this evening as well. So I will want to do a leakage test run as well as test temp control (manually turning the element on and off and the pump on and off).
When testing the HERMS response, does anyone know how close an approximation filling the MLT with water is as compared to actually having my mash in there?
I will create a build thread later, in case anyone is interested in what I have created.
