    you cant remove it thats where the coolant runs through and it wont work with out it. unbolt it from the top and carefully attach it to the back wall of the inside of the fridge )dont kink the coolant line). you may need to move the controller knob to another spot also. their are some threads...

    You should be able to run two elements on 50a they would be pulling around 23 amps per element depending on your power level on the PID. Just run the elements in parallel and put them on their own 2 position switches( one switch for each element) that way you can power one at a time or both at...

    I requested a custom order from Kal after emailing back and forth with him. because alot of the parts needed to be 50a i just modified his design to add extra components and he put in the order from spike innovations. It was the better choice, if I had tried to order all the parts on my own it...

    I basically used Kals schematics except I bumped everything up to 50a. This lead powers all the internal parts and pumps plus the HLT and one BK elements on a 3 position switch. Then the other 30a lead is only powering one element. I can work up a diagram if it would help it will just be a while.

    Ya I've been using it in my current system and wide open with the march pump using 60f water at full flow and it chills 10 gallons to 68f in 9.5 min hahaha I love the thing I'm gonna have to regulate temp by restricting water flow not wort.

    That's the next venture! I'm planning on getting plastic 85 gallon inductor tanks and outfitting them with TC fittings but I have no where to put them yet. Right now I have a fermentation locker that can hold 5 carboys. I'm planning on getting a 20' shipping container and making it our brewery...

    So its time for me to start sharing my progress on our (girlfriend/ brewing partner Rachelle and I) 1bbl system that has been in the works for coming up on 10 months. The things we wanted in the system were that we wanted it to be able to brew batches from 10g-1bbl, needs to last forever and...

    So here she is just finished the trial run this weekend at our friends wedding and it worked perfect! None of the ice started to melt until after all 6 kegs were gone. Which only took about an hour and a half. Soooo impressed with the six pass chiller beer poured around 42 degrees which is...

    "Blind" Hops?

    1. are they first year plants? 2. rhizomes or shoot clippings? 3. how has the weather been? and a side note my willamette plants tend to start late, not nugget tho.

    Uh, so, what are they supposed to look like?

    I've had a police helicopter fly really close to the farm.... and when i say close it was around 150 feet off the ground, made the trellis cables bounce. also a sheriff wanting to know what to tell people that kept calling what i was really growing. and department of Ag stoped by to ask because...

    Growing Hops is a great idea if you dont want Aphids in your beer!!

    protein....i've heard some stories from big breweries that are stripping bails and find things like: birds, lizards, rats, mice, tools, and even a finger:ban: and i mean who doesn't like some fresh metacarpal in their IPA?

    What do you use as a secondary for 10 gal batches?

    if you have CO2... perge the secondary before you transfer and the head space is a non issue
