Oh oh, is this thread going to get deleted now?

I still have all intentions to, but I've been quite happy with phase angle, but am still adjusting it down to see how low I can go with my percentages. This takes quite a bit of time as I do an entire batch at one setting and then do the next one lower, and check the results in the final...

Look at my build thread and you can find a bit of information on the quadzilla there. I think without that element I'd have another kettle and a HERMS setup.

You might want to change your opinion on this lol, I've been quite successful in automating 3 gallon batches.

Updated price $130 plus shipping.

All this information is already in this thread, if you read the manual in post 1475 I can all but guarantee half of the problems you keep having will go away.

I like this one, I actually tried changing the color about a month ago and was surprised that this wasn't a feature.

Any words on this? I never thought about adding another mega to my brewery, but for this price why not. I could add all of my cold side onto this, and then free up more analog inputs and spots on my relay boards for more data points and other stuff for the hot side process.

Eventually yes, I'm starting out with phase angle, then once I have a feel for the results I'll try burst.

After talking with Pete about the Quadzilla performance, I couldn't shake the idea of using a proportional ssr to lower the thermal stress on the wort even further. My goal through this endeavor is to keep the two vessel setup, while enjoying the low stress on the wort you can achieve with...

I got two boxes and still not enough space, starting over I'd go with one massive box say 6 ft high and 2-4 ft wide. I put most of my in-process transmitters in the smaller one, but have had to squeeze stuff wherever it fits now.

Awesome thanks! I haven't upgraded yet as I'm brewing today and didn't want to change anything up until after this batch is done. I had a bunch of additions and changes I worked on and haven't tested them out on an actual brew.

Hell yeah, I'm looking forward to the database as it such a pain now to save all of my graphs from brew day.

So its been a minute since I posted anything here, I've been slowly upgrading and adding to the setup over time. I added another spunding setup so I can spund two kegs at once along with dynamic pressure alarms so that if the average pressure shoots up or drops for whatever reason I'll get an...

And that's why you buy it in a can, no light struck flavors and the superiority of canning due to limited o2 ingress after canning shows off the great beer that Budvar/Budweiss is.

Nice flag of Belgium you got going on Big Monk.

Currently it's wired for 110v, if you need 240v you would just need to change the plug to a 4 pin and add another wire if you want to keep the 240v for the element and 110v for the pump control. Alternatively, you could use the same wiring, change the power in/out wires and eliminate the pump...

Brau Supply Brewery controller for sale $200 plus shipping, this will fit in a USPS flat rate box so roughly $20 in shipping. I upgraded the PID to a DSPR 320 which allows the user to set up mash steps, boil steps, pump control and I added an alarm to it so that you can be notified of steps...

You're letting me down with that drill attached to your mill, at least mount a maker motor to it o_O. Yeah CIP is the first thing I got up and running once I finished my brew day script, it makes life much better.

According to Kunze, only about 20% of the zinc in malt goes into solution, and the zinc content then decreases further during the course of mashing. If a threshold of .1-.15mg/l is not reached fermentation difficulties may occur. Plus, zee Germans have overcome the lack of zinc by using spent...
