Thanks for the comments Nate. The stainless steel shelf just to the right of the sink is from eBay. Search “stainless steel shelf” and they have all sizes available. The rack system, hooks and containers are from IKEA. Just do a Google search for IKEA Grundtal. I think I got mine from Amazon...

Hi Antic, I used SEA YF-S402 flow meters from eBay. They have 1/4" compression fittings so I adapted these to John Guest fittings to fit my Bev-Seal Ultra tubing. Kenny

Once a year or about every 10 batches seems to work well for my setup.

Sorry John, no manufacture name, model or any other identifying marks. It's a generic imported 16x16x8 stainless steel enclosure. A few I found with a Google search are below: https://store.solutionsdirectonline.com/16x16x8-stainless-steel-enclosure--en4sd16168ss-p2028.aspx...

My switch is a 2-position (HLT/MASH) but a 3-position could be used too. I used 2 NO and 2 NC switch blocks as I recommend switching both the + and - control leads from each of the two PID controllers. You could connect the - control leads together and save a set of switches but when I checked...

Yes Istrowge, the PID select switch switches the SSR control voltage from the HLT heating element PID's directly. The switch I use has 6 poles, 2 are for the indicator LED's and 4 are for switching the + and - control leads. No relays are used for this function. You can see a wiring diagram of...

Thanks @WhatsBrewing. I got my blank enclosure from ebrewsupply.com but I was unable to find one now on their new website.

Welcome. I'm down south in Pueblo. I too started with extract kits. Follow the link in my signature to see where that led me. :)

I have had good luck with Omega equipment in the past. http://www.omega.com/googlebase/product.html?pn=DP6-SNK0&gclid=CPzvopjags0CFVc1aQoduAwOeA edit: Sorry that link is only for the digital output card. The meter is here http://www.omega.com/pptst/DP63000.html

Shelf liner available at Lowes. They make several sizes and colors and it cuts easily. http://www.lowes.com/pd_161411-14510-1183742_1z0vighZ1z11pfa__?productId=3137307&pl=1

bradleybiscuits, My setup is pretty much as described at the www.theelectricbrewery.com website. I have the HLT probe in the piping leaving the HLT. I recirculate the HLT water back into the HLT and this keeps the water temperature exactly where I have it set on the PID controller. I have...

Sorry jmark for my confusion. I got those at Home Depot but I can't find a link to them now. Lowes has them but in a different size. Mine are 17" in diameter. http://www.lowes.com/pd_114105-99899-L5RND174415S_0__

Thanks jmark, The mats come in 3' x 3' sections and can be interlocked together. They are thick black rubber and feel nice on the feet during a long brew day. They can easily be cut to fit with a sharp knife. Take them outside and hose them off when needed. Available at Lowes...

Thanks woo_pig, Just finished batch #11 and the brewery has been running as expected. A 10 gallon batch of a Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA clone and we also have a 10 gallon batch of Yooper's Oatmeal Stout in a fermentor. Thanks to forum member @Yooper for a terrific recipe. It's been really hard...

www.ritebrew.com is my go to supplier. Great service and fresh ingredients.
