Nice flow diagram and thread! I've been spending all of my money lately fixing up our house, but hopefully I'll be converting to electric before long. I'll definitely be using your build as inspiration for a cheaper control panel. Thanks!

Do you mind sharing a flow diagram so we know how it works? Also, how are you using your valves? It looks like there are only valves on your pumps and one of your hoses - were you just trying to save money on the valves or is there some other advantage here? Looks great btw. I'm super jealous...

I just read through the whole thread. Great build and great notes/ pictures. I'm planning to convert a coal room in my basement into a humidity controlled walk in (if I ever stop financing other hobbies long enough to save the money for the supplies). Luckily my space is already inside a...

I'll update here when I hear back from L&M or if...

I've been considering adding a second pump to my brewing setup. The first pump was part of a pre-configured system that I received. It's a March 809. I've had great success with it. That said, I looked into the other pump options to determine if that's what I'll add for the next addition. The...
