Hello, very new to brewing, I've done an extract and a partial extract. I now see how important temp control is. Really want to get into full grain brewing. I've seen some talk about heat sticks and kinda like the idea.
I like to build my own stuff, but some things you don't monkey with and
dippin' electricity in water is one of them. I saw this on amazon [URL="http://www.amazon.com/MARSHALLTOWN-Premier-742G-Bucket-Heater/
and thought it be good for a MLT. What do you think?
I have access to NG, Propane & electricity(50 amps). I would like to know what you think is the safest, most idiot proof DIY system. I am leaning toward an electric system. They seem simpler to control heat and even though you're puttin' electricity in water you can protect yourself with the proper safety. Gas can go boom, so neither one is safe if you're not careful both can kill you.
I'm putting this out here lookin' for your thoughts on both the heat stick & gas or electric.
