That's the same exact unit I've used for the past 6 months and it's a quality piece. People complain about the plastic gear, but it's a pretty damn hefty part if I say so. Just don't be a jack a$$ and keep cranking when it won't let you and it'll last you a good long time. Here's some of the...

Sorry for the delay everyone, had some pregnancy issues with the wife. The system has been sold locally as a piece. Thanks.

I'm in the Chicagoland area and I'm selling my bottom drain electri BK.

Ok so I'm adding the RIMS tube and 2 PID controller to this listing. The controller has 2 MYPIN PIDS with k type connections. 1 PID was used for monitoring outgoing MLT flow and the other connects with a 2" tri clamp the RIMS tube and controls the element. The panel also has a master on/off...

Hello, was just PM'ed about this by the previous poster, but here it is. You'll be next in line if he's out.

BTW, I'm in Crest Hill, IL which is SW burbs of Chicago.

Well it's time for me to downgrade. With a 2 year old and a baby on the way, I'm looking at going back to kit brew....which is fine by me. I've got a number of things available. Shipping is available on the items that note it only. Also the Control panel and RIMS tube/setup is not for sale ATM...

I would venture to say no, but I haven't tried. I don't think I would either.

A return flow will create some sort of movement in the wort in the kettle. The flow would depend on your direction your fitting is pointing inside your kettle and the diameter of your kettle.

Chicken thighs were on sale for .99 cents a lb, so I smoked 5 lbs of 'em. Got another 5 lb package in the freezer for later. Pictures a little blurry, but the flavor was good. The grill was actin up, so I didn't get as crispy of a skin as I would have liked.

My heart goes out to you and your family for the injustice that is forced upon you......

I'd imagine your looks worse than since you ferment in it, but your right...had that been the case here, I don't think it would have made it either. I'm gonna weight it tonight since it's been 1 week to see how things are progressing.
