At the moment I decided to build HERMS I got two kegs and plastic bucket. I decided to use bucket for HLT only temporary, but with time it turned out as cheap and functional solution, it is made from HDPE(High-density polyethylene) which can withstand higher temperatures (120 C/ 248 F for short...

Hey guys, I'm putting together a 20 gallon kettle setup for brewing 10/12 gallon batches.
I've made a spreadsheet on Google sheets if you wanna keep up with the parts list / cost.

I find very few examples of people using their HERMS coil as a chiller, except when it is detached and being used as an immersion chiller.
Here's what I plan to do in my single tier, three vessel Electric HERMS build:
Recirculate the mash between the MLT and the HERMS-equipped HLT like normal...
Hey All,
Well these have been sitting in my basement for too long. I have two polished e-keggles I am looking to sell that were originally part of my e-HERMS. Only selling as I upgraded to Spike kettles.
Both of these would be fantastic options for e-BIAB or two vessel system with the...
I am thinking of making the switch to electric brewing and building my own brew controller based on this guy's build here: https://skrilnetz.net/how-to-build-a-brewing-control-panel-herms-240v-30-amp/
I have all of the components in my cart ready to buy and have started thinking of how I am...
Background
Several years ago I built a Kal-clone HERMS system following his design pretty closely. It has worked fairly well but I think I'm ready for the next step to streamline brewday even more. One of my frustrations is having to re-arrange tubes several times through the course of the...
I'm located in Toronto but would happily drive 5-8hrs for the right buy once everything is verified. Looking to buy a nice rig and price range is flexible to reflect what I find. Big fan of Spike and Blichmann, will buy with or without the controller and I already have 1 pump. Thanks!
So, I started a PLC build way back when ('11-'12). The project fizzled out due to money, kids, life, etc...
In the mean time, I worked several automated builds surrounding Raspberry Pi, Python, and QT5. reef-pi and a homebrew saltwater mixing station for Aquarium use (or RODI brew water).

I started brewing about eight years ago when my wife surprised me with a Mr. Beer kit. I made some passable beers and some that were plain awful. I enjoyed the hobby but really did not enjoy my beer as much as what I could buy at the market. So I put Mr. Beer in the back closet and continued...

Cheers everyone. I BIAB. My mashes are typically 8.2 to 9.3 gallons. I have been doing step mashes with boiling additions. I decided to try my old copperhead immersion chiller on as a herms coil. I have a 5 gallon and 10 gallon pot either of which I can use as an HLT to house the herms coil. I...

A friend and I are getting serious about brewing and we are considering buying the Blichmann pilot system https://www.blichmannengineering.com/10-gallon-gas-herms-pilot-system.html . This will be stepping up from a single kettle and plastic coolers for the mash tun and hot liquor tanks. And it...
Has anyone ever done something like this? I'm considering adding a herms coil to the BK for the chilling process. This way, I can connect a chilling system (glycol or similar) and cool the wort, while in within the bk, without the need for an immersion, counterflow, or plate chiller...not to...
