Yikes. Where in the world is their thermocouple at?

Don't think about that gfci, do. You must be safe brother. Otherwise I think your plans sound solid. I'd do 240v service with 5500w elements for a faster brew day and to allow for expansion if you move up to 10g.

Just remember that gfci is crazy important in this situation which I'm sure you do, just covering the bases.

You could get a heatstick from Bobby at brewhardware.com and run it off another gfci circuit assuming you have more than just one in your kitchen.

I think stacking would take a little away from the thermal efficiency. Personally I'd set a 45 degree to 90 degree offset to maximize the efficiency.

That's why I asked. I think this system might be a little overkill.

How big are those?

Thanks for this post. I just built one and I love it. I got my hands on a turbo 500 boiler brand new for $50 and use this with is like a grainfather setup only I use it to do a precise mash only and run off to my boil kettle.

Hey guys and gals, just wanted to say hi and I finally took 2 seconds to sign up. You've all been helping me for years as a lurker and I'm looking forward to making some more friends. Brew in a bag electric, member of bloatarian brewing league (BBL) and I work at municipal brew works in Hamilton...
