I brewed this Monday while it was snowing and windy and I really don't want to do that again. I've been looking into electrical brewing and would like to know if this would work.
My range outlet in the kitchen is connected to a 40 amp breaker. But the outlet is a NEMA 14-50. I will not be using over 25 amps for a 5500w element and pump(23a + 2a=25). Could I plug this range extension cord into the existing NEMA 14-50 outlet, wire a NEMA 14-30 outlet in a gangbox to the extension, plug in an inline GFI and hook that up to my respective bus bars in my control panel?
