So I was recently in a single bbl nanobrewery... the brewer was kind enough to so me his set up and I noticed that the BK had three 5500w elements running from the kettle to the wall. I asked how he controlled them and he showed me that he used the breaker as a power switch. My question is with all the reading I've done on here it is suggested that you have something control the power to these elements so you don't scorch the wort in the BK. He clearing is not scorching his wort(beers were excellent) and all 3 elements are running at 100% during the boil.:rockin:
