Well All who followed this thread hoping to see a finished RIMS unit. It is done after 9 months! Ran several tests, used info in site for mypin settings, A change I would do is 3 way valves so I dont have to change hoses so much. I also used and had planned on using the propane to heat the...

Well heck Auggie. This is a new system for me. I dont think clogging will be a problem since it is the strike water I want to measure. If it clogs, one nut with a couple orings and flush it out at clean time. Hey btw. You know of any videos of rims system in action. I am taking apart my...

Gotta love that! Now you show me, now I want easier access to my element.

Just so you know , I don't know **** about this. I am a creative guy so I might have a few good ideas, or know when I see a good one :) I read a post here that says a longer 220v element ran on 110v may keep heavier gravity worts from scorching, so my RIMS tube is longer now so if I do have a...

Thanks, I will go with the sticker and wire 7,8, and 9. Ya I didnt pay much m thought I would give these a try first. I have read the arguments till I am sick of them. Will post a report here one day when, and if its up and running :D

Hey Lava Steam' I made my wiring box from a sugar shaker. Even tho it was all a bit cheaper than buying it, not by that much unless you were making 2, the shakers come in sets of 2 from Amazon for about 6.75, then the grommet,a couple washers to cover the rest of the shaker holes and silicone...

Here are a few pics of my RIMS Tube. I received a 9"x 1-1/2' stainless nipple I ordered 2 months ago. I originally ordered a 8" and it went on back order. Just decided to call and they had (5) 9" in stock! DUH! That's OK, I was working on the control panel anyway.

I draw for architects for work so I already have autocadd. Thanks for the info on the pipe, thats what I paid, but havent got it do I. On a slow boat from Hong Kong

No HLT. RIMS only yes. If I have scorching problems I will keep that in mind. With the 8" pipe I have not received yet I have ample room, about 15" total with the tees. I could get a longer pipe now just in case. thanks.

75 to 80% finished wiring the control panel, more work than I thought. Or should I say FUN! Only a few changes from my diagram, 1 amp in line fuse to PID's and 10 amp in line to pumps.

OK I have read some of your other threads on this project. Did you get it all going? I am still working on the wiring on mine, just got the gas valve stuff and hose reg and burner today. The wiring is a chore?!!!

oK,Now I am going to add the Honeywell to my new brewery right away. I originally would have room to add it on to my build but I might as well add it now. Have you seen this post? https://breweryservices.wordpress.com/2013/01/29/calvin-building-automated-burners/ Very good info on the...
