I have one of these and it works fine one a 240 20amp circuit. Love the manual knob. I would love to use a controller with this but haven't crossed that bridge yet. Soon hopefully. Cheers!

I do BIAB with a 10gal Spike kettle, Wilser bag, and a Adcraft 3000 watt induction plate. I also double crush my grain at my LHBS. I have never gotten any scorching like what you are seeing. I do get a little grayish residue on the bottom of the kettle where the heat ring is but it wipes off...

Hello, Just about to pull the trigger on this software. Your solution looks great and is exactly what I was looking for. Just ordered a couple Feather WIFI boards and the related parts required to control both my Keezer and Ferm chamber. Will work on the brewery after I get these running to...

The picture makes it look taller than it is. It's only a little over 7 ft tall, just right to let the bag hang over the kettle and drain. Heck if you were closer I'd build you one!

Here is my current set up.

That is basically what I did except I used a receptacle and a single gang box. Either way will work. Probably be a good idea to get one of these. http://www.gfcistore.com/20-amp-inline-gfcis.html Cheers! :mug:

Here is my latest creation. Spent an afternoon in the shop with welder. No pivoting arm but I think it will be fine for 10gal batches. On wheels so I can park it out of the way.

Yes I have and it is working very well. I have brewed 3 batches and will be brewing the 4th this weekend. My first brew I was slightly off on my volumes, and gravity I attributed this to the less vigorous boil. I didn't change any of my process for the second and third brew and my volumes and...

Here is the one I currently have. I got it from www.brewinabag.com It works great but it's too heavy for my 5 gal batches. It is strung with 3/8" rope and has a capacity of 250 lbs. I will be receiving my wilserbrewerbag today and his 1/4" ratchet pulley and am going to add an additional...

I haven't done any exbeeriments with other kettles but I can tell you that my Spike Brewing kettle works just fine on the induction plate. Cheers!

I have actually. There is a 2-3 second delay between restoring power to the unit and it turning on the coil/generating heat(also an annoying beep that would have to be dealt with :)). I am assuming that it needs to confirm a pot is on the unit before it will fire the coil. This delay would...

Received my Adcraft Induction Cook-Top last week, set it up and brewed a batch of Blonde Ale on Sunday. First here is the link to the unit I purchased. Shipping was great and it shipped direct from the manufacture. If you sign up for JES's newsletter they will give you $10 off you purchase...

I just purchased and used for the first time an induction cook-top for my 5-gal BIAB setup. I purchased the Adcraft ind-c208v from JES restaurant supply. http://www.jesrestaurantequipment.com/manual-control-induction-cooker-constructed-heavy-duty-stain-p-1052240.html I purchased this unit...

Count me in!!

Sure glad I stumbled onto this post! Was researching induction cook tops and about to order the IC-3500 but was concerned about the quality and having to modify it later if I wanted to automate it. Went ahead and ordered the IND-C208V today. Hopefully this will allow me to bring my BIAB setup...
