I bought this from a local club member and have since decided not to use it. I don't have time to brew nearly as much so I'm downsizing a lot of my gear.

Here's what you get:

Rims Tube

Control Box with PID, Switches, and Outlets

1500W Low Density Heating Element

Thermocouple

You'll either need to change one of the reducers on the RIMS tube to a 1/2" FPT or replace the thermocouple with a 1/4" RTD version. I had the RIMS tube for a long time and then got everything else from my buddy. He pulled all the electronics out of his E-Brew setup so the tube and electronics haven't been run together yet. I was going to just change the reducer size to 1/2" FPT for the flow output. That's the cheaper way to go. You'll also have to wire the heating element into the SSR inside the box. That's super easy and should take 5 minutes. Comes with an instructional CD on how to use the PID. Overall this is a functioning RIMS system with a little effort.

Asking $160 shipped
