Why switch to electric?

[thelorax121]

For me it was because propane costs were going through the roof. My high pressure burners were eating through a $20 tank every 2.5 ($8 vs ~$1 for electric/brew). Also, it was a little easier and for me to add automation/precise temperature control with electric instead of the solenoids, pilots etc. required for gas.

About the only reason for me was wanting to brew indoors out of the weather. Never really factored cost in it because I didn't really care at the time.

most people install some method of exausting the steam, or in my case, in the winter the house needs some moisture

You can't really use brewing indoors to humidify the house if you live in colder climates. It's *way* too much moisture, *way* too fast. Also smells (to most of the other non-brewers in the house).

Of course it's more cost-efficient than propane.
More importantly, it's much, much safer.
