I'm building a brewtroller for my gravity fed system, and have a 'custom' PVC manifold that controls water during the day (to HLT or plate chiller mainly).
Part of the automation (thanks Kladue!) is to automate the HLT burner, in progress, which requires 24V - so I have this available already.
My question is:
Anyone ever tried a 24V sprinkler valve to control feed water? (they are about $12 and come in 3/4")
With the power supply and a switch I could control water to the HLT with one of these (specs say up to 150 psi - ground water about 50-70?)
What am I missing?
