Converting from 3 keggle propane rims to electric herms.

Nice!

Previous setup. It is torn apart for renovations. The propane stand and rims tube are up for sale.

Porch & pub pic: it’s been a busy year.

 

[HootervilleHops]

New set up plan...

Looking good!

That's awesome! Reminds me I need to get my brewstand configured for my panel when it's ready. Everything looks great!

 

[HootervilleHops]

Seems to work! It heats water anyway.

 

[HootervilleHops]

Ready to brew

I’m waiting some fittings so I can give mine a test run! You’re gonna love it

Ready to brew

Dog's doesn't look as excited about all this as your are.

Brew on

 

[HootervilleHops]

No food involved. He only gets excited about food and birds!

 

[HootervilleHops]

Took about 1 hour to bring 11 gallons of 57 degree water to boiling.

Seem reasonable?

What's the rated element power, and are you running it at it rated voltage?

Brew on

 

[HootervilleHops]

5500 watt, 220 volts

Finally!! 1st brew went well. Only hiccup was a leaky connection on the new plate chiller. The backup immersion chiller saved the brew day. 5 gallons of IPA in the fermenter.

love the homemade coolbot. one stc to control the heater and one for the ac unit?

 

[HootervilleHops]

One to controls the A/C (heater, foil taped to a/c temp sensor). The other in series to monitor the evaporator temp. If the evaporator gets to 32 degrees it turns off the power to the heater.

The heater is just a resistor powered by the iphone charger

A/C is plugged into the wall runs all the time the HH1000 only controls the heater on the temp sensor.

Holding 38 degrees pretty steady over the weekend.

Top Secret stuff i guess.

Ive seen the concept shared before and agree its not all that complex.. I'm using a coolbot at the brewery and had enough trouble getting that passed by the inspector.
